I just received my new book by Elizabeth Kurella “The Many Lives of Old
Lace”.  In spite of postage adding 30% to the cost, I have to say this book
is worth every penny for those interested in antique lace.  It wasn’t until
last year that I actually came across old re-worked lace.  We’ve all been
told how valuable lace was in the past ..worth more than it’s weight in
gold.. but actually seeing a some that was already a hundred years old before
being re-worked leaves even more of an impression.  Elizabeth Kurella”s book
helps identify, assess, and judge approximately when a piece was re-worked.
She also advises when and how it would be appropriate to re-work lace yourself
in order to save sections from an otherwise badly damaged piece.  Thank you
Elizabeth for another well worthwhile book.     Sharon, on Vancouver Island
where we’re expecting yet another 2 inches of rain today
