Hello Carolina and Antje and everyone, Thank you for the link to Tordesillas
We were very interested in your mailing today as this year Sandi Woods and myself have written and published two booklets on the theme of 'Pomegranates in Bobbin Lace' The second booklet is entitled 'The Queen Katherine Connection' and describes how Katherine of Aragon the younger sister of Joan encouraged lacemaking in England. This year is the 500th anniversary of her Marriage to Henry VIII th and their Coronation; and this was one of the prompts to writing the booklets. You all may like to have a look at the covers on Jean's website www.jeanmaryeke.com The two sisters must have made lace together and we think would have made a simple plaited bobbin lace. We should love to know if you could shed any light on this subject. We wish you the very best for your Congress.
