Yesterday, Gunnel and I and our Assistant Director at the Ratti put the final two pieces of lace from the last box of lace from the Textile Study Room into a storage location. With this act, we have finally finished unpacking all the 5000 pieces of lace that were packed for the move from the old Textile Study Room to the new Ratti Textile Center at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The unpacking has taken nine years. Many people over the last nine years have asked to see pieces of lace only to be told that they were unavailable because they were still in boxes. This led to a lot of dissatisfaction when people asked to see for instance, ten pieces, and only five were available. This should no longer be the case! Hooray! Devon
