Hi everyone This nice message came to me from Ilske, but I think it is meant for the whole list ;) bye for now Bev in blustery Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) Subject: Re: [lace] meaning of Torchon
Hello Everyone, If you compare some sorts of freehand-lace with Torchon you see how many elements from thefhl are in the T too. So Bev is right thinking that Torchon is one of the oldest. Because this french word in german today mean Lappen or Putzlappen, in my dictionary is for this cloth could this be?, lots of people have a bad meaning about this wonderful and various sort of lace. Indeed, thinking on fans, Torchon wasn't taken for them in earlier times. Today yes. And again we see that we never will find out when and where exactly this or that lace started nor why or from whom. Greetings Ilske from Hamburg in Germany where we had on wednesday a really wonder ful springday but only on wednesday - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
