Every so often, I write a book review for an old book that is still relevant and useful.  November 2016, I sent a review of Virginia Churchill Bath's 1974 LACE book to Arachne.  You can very easily locate it on the New England Lace Group's web site by selecting Book Reviews from the menu on the left.  You can see the colored lace of the book jacket, which is technically impossible on Arachne.  It occurred to me that some of you might like to print the review, and put in your copy of Bath's book.    www.nelg.us  Jeri Ames in Maine USA Lace and Embroidery Resource Center ----------------------------------------------------  In a message dated 4/3/2018 1:20:36 PM Eastern Standard Time, d2one...@comcast.net writes:
 The original jacket cover on Lace by Virginia Churchill Bath (published 1974) is of a fragment of colored lace flowers, identified in the book as from Italy, 19th century. The author once remarked to a group of us that she wondered why we were so awestruck when we saw the actual tiny piece in the Chicago Art Institute's collection. but, of course, it was because at that time we had not done lace in colors ourselves. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
