Hello! May I add 2 cents? I haven't the foggiest idea about the Sunday Edition broadcast but I purchased "hand made" lace in LaBourboule & in Brioude about 10yrs ago before I started making lace. My roommate & I bought a large rectangle (intended as a placemat?), that had not yet been "installed" on linen. We cut it in half so we could use if for crazy quilting & each of us got 2 nice corners, a long leg & a short leg. We also bought various yardage, both insertions & edgings. I wouldn't cut up lace today, but at the time everybody was happy, even the lacemaker who got PAID! Upon my return to the US, friends looked at my stash & remarked that the lacemaker(s) had made many 1000s of leaves! It seems to me that there are lacemakers still working for the couturier industry & at a price commensurate with the work product. There is always a market for beautiful things. Susan, in Erie, PA
