I have come across a lovely example of drawn-work on eBay (my "eye" is not that sophisticated in this area, so I hope more knowledgeable spiders will bring me "up to speed"). The item is described as a handkerchief, and the seller suggests that it may have been a wedding handkerchief. But I question this, as the dimensions are 24 by 24 inches !! (~60 X60 cm). Now, I'm aware that handkerchiefs have had their own evolution... once quite large, and now quite small. But I'm thinking that 24 inches is HUGE!!
Nevertheless, the drawn-work is lovely, and I think this (being one of the pre-cursors of needle and bobbin laces) is worthy of our list... Any ideas? http://tinyurl.com/0 Clay Clay Blackwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
