An HISTORIC event, to be sure!!  We are SO fortunate to have
you there, Devon, helping in this process AND keeping us
informed!!  I'm sure I speak for lots of lurkers and
semi-lurkers when I say THANK YOU for a job well done!!

Subject: [lace] All Ratti Lace Available. Hooray!


> Yesterday, Gunnel and I and our Assistant Director at the
Ratti put the

the Textile Study Room

finished unpacking all

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

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!
