I followed the link to the "Scottish" Lace Ham and then did a bit of a
browse and came up with this Lace Doyley
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2586669105&category=39445

In the description it says that it is very likely from the Island of Malta.
Search as hard as I can I can't find the usual Maltese Cross, or any leaves
for that matter either!
It also says that "This is my very last piece from this exceptional lace
maker".  One would assume that the lace maker knew what she was making!

I thought this might be of interest in view of the postings about Maltese
lace just recently.

Its quite a pretty piece all the same, but Maltese?  I think not.  What do
others think?

Sue Fink in Masterton New Zealand where its been 30 degrees for days and we
are only allowed to use hand held hoses and have to watch our well loved
gardens slowly die.  Will go and bury myself in some lace so I can't see the
sad deaths outside!
