===================================

Hi Alice,

This sure looks like the conbined efforts of several lacemakers.  The design 
has a lovely flow.  I wonder if we could detect the hand of different 
lacemakers if we could examine the tablecloth?  This kind of project or any 
project requiring multiple workers and a consistent product is the root of all 
the rules of lacemaking.  The only real reason to be obligated to always work a 
certain way is so that many pairs of hands can produce matching work.  But even 
in the sameness, the individual spark of each pair of hands will leave subtle 
differences.

Hmmmm . .

Patty
