Thanks Jeri!  My clarification is that I came to know about Digital Archives
from embroidery world & I continued to use that addy because I didn't notice
the url ending was slightly different.  I am most grateful to have that little
detail corrected!  My reason for posting was to find out what the Arachne
experts might have heard because textile-related news often appears here
first.  The fact that so many of Mary Corbet's readers responded to her post &
tested the link to prove that it was still there speaks volumes.  If Univ. of
Ariz. is monitoring traffic to the site, I'm sure they saw a big blip!   Now
that I know how to use the "lace" portion of the site, I have had great fun
reading early issues of NOL & IOL publications thru 1980.  Lia B-J is pictured
making lace & there are interesting articles & patterns.  There are references
to "Chinese laces" that I do not understand but perhaps someone will enlighten
or I will find the answer in subsequent issues.  I'd like to think that
Arachne will remain relevant because we support it with questions & comments.
There is way too much to know & no single lace maker is likely to be fluent in
all forms of lace, just as a linguist might know five languages rather than
thirty.  That makes Arachne a logical information hub for what we do.  It's a
pearl of great value.  Sincerely, Susan Hottle USA
