Back from my travels to London (visited In Fine Style with Heather Toomer, author of a series of wonderful books on 18th and 19th century whitework embroideries - a special treat!) to Paris, where I found a few special items at a street flea market. One piece will surely find its way into a COPY THIS article in the future -- watch for it, guaranteed to make you smile! Finally to Belgium for almost a week.
The first of a series of Lace In Belgium articles is now posted at www.LaceCurator.info. The first is Lace in Brussels, to be followed soon after by Bruges and Leuven. Also -- a follow up to the recent article on Insouciant Crochet -- fearless imitations of classic laces by audacious folks with a crochet hook and ball of thread. This special piece, from the collection of Kate Henry, is a crocheted fall cap that imitates Point de France needle lace. Come visit!
