Dear Lace Lovers, If you went to the Lace Fairy's site Pat T. gave, several of the butterflies are probably from my collection, much of which Lace Fairy photographed. You can see the shadow of the embroidery of 3 fish on the wings - usually the lower right. The round doily on red background is the finest quality piece of Halas in my collection. It is about 3 and one-half inches in diameter, and you have to look twice to decide which side should be up. When you look (in person) at such crisp clean lace, perfectly executed, you may forget to breathe. Please go to the official Hungarian Halas lace site and to the Gallery. Wonderful lace! The addresses given by Pat T. are below my signature line. Jeri Ames in Maine USA Lace and Embroidery Resource Center In a message dated 1/3/2011 8:41:14 P.M.

I have found that lacefairy (http://lace.lacefairy.com/Lace/ID/Halas.html or http://lace.lacefairy.com/Lace/International/BPhungary.html) has a few butterflies that will allow enlargement and have the three fish in the lower right wing, at least on my browser. The first web page doesn't load correctly on my browser but the butterflies are accessible. These appear to be the same butterflies on both webpages. This image has them bottom center: http://www.huembwas.org/gb/euopenhouse/2009/Halas%20lace5.jpg But here is the place to go; _http://www.halasicsipke.hu/start_eng.html_ (http://www.halasicsipke.hu/start_eng.html) - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
