Hello, spiders:
About the cloth-stitch laces: I'm referring to the older (eg,
17th-century) laces of Antwerp and similar; the ones that gave rise to
what we now call Valenciennes, Flanders, and Binche. I would like to
learn more about these laces, and am wondering if there are any
resources I don't know about. I will tackle books/articles that aren't
in English. I already have the OIDFA publications "Die linnenkast" #3
and #4, and "Caroluskantjes". Much of what I do know comes from Erdmute
Wesenberg's "Binche-Spitzen" which I also have. Is there anything else?
Also, I'd like to thank Donna for putting into words what was floating
in my mind:
"Email is such an imperfect medium of communication. We save time by
using fewer
words than we'd use in conversation, we can't see the poster's facial
expression or hear their tone of voice. <snip> This is a highly
charged, emotional situation and tearing Dora apart because we
misinterpreted her response is not gonna help the victims of this
horrible deed or the families of victims."
