Dear Lacemakers, Each year, I order the catalog from Witney's annual exhibition. This year's exhibit in October was called "On this fair canvas does my needle write". Click on the exhibit listed at the bottom of the home page.
Not exclusively British. Read about the Emma-Henriette Schiff von Suver collection that was held in Austria since 1939 and returned to her descendants by the Austrian Government in Spring 2003. Then, click on the Samplers (Site Navigation box) and you can see a mid-16th Century Italian needlelace sampler on page 2. www.witneyantiques.com Jeri Ames in Maine USA Lace & Embroidery Resource Center - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
