I thought it must be something like that. I take it this is not as high an
honor as being 'Knighted'. Or is it the same thing/rank?
Thanks for the info, and what a nice honor this is for her.

I thought Bridget Cook had been honored in some way by the Queen but couldn't
find anything on the web. Am I right? If not, she should be.

And, prior to that (thanks to Google!), Pat Read and Pamela Nottingham
were also recipients! So,
I think we should all congratulate Kitty Mason who has been awarded an
MBE in the New Year's Honours List for Services to Lace Making. Is
there anyone on Arachne who knows her who can pass our congratulations
on? Kitty is a well known teacher in Edinburgh.

This is not a first, but is still a wonderful recognition! In 1997,
Elsie Luxton was awarded this honor for her work in Honiton Lace. There
may have been others prior to that, but it would have been before my time!

Please for those of us on the other side of the pond, what do the initials
