Dear Sharon -- I will tell you what I know (which is very little!), and if you have access to a fax machine, I would be happy to fax you the four-page article which I mentioned a couple of months ago; it is really quite a perfect reference for a beginner, as it includes diagrams and stitch-by-stitch how-to. The name of the article is "Aemilia-Ars Lace;" the name of the very nice book in which it appears is "The Gentle Needle Arts": incredibly, neither book nor article gives any author's name. The publisher's name is shown as "Marshall Cavendish Books Ltd., 58 Old Compton Street, London W1V 5PA and is copyrighted for each year from 1971 to 1977.
But the person you really want to connect with is a scholar of Aemilia Ars, which I am not. She is Bianca Rosa Bellomo, and she is on our Arachne list. Good luck, and I will be most interested to hear back from you. -- Aurelia - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
