Gentle Spiders,
My husband, who reads or, at least, skims the entire newspaper (I limit
myself to the news section), brought to my attention the following
article in the Arts section of today's New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/01/arts/design/01anti.html?
_r=1&ref=arts&oref=slogin
The article uses the publication of The Lace Reader as the springboard
but talks, mostly, about the history of the Ipswich lace.
The newspaper version has a *very nice* photo of a (reproduced) sample
of the Ipswich lace which caught his eye and made him read the article
-- which he found fascinating and informative (unlike me, he's never
read Cotterell's book <g>). The online version is missing the photo,
alas. Still... Thought some of you might find the article interesting.
Besides, it's always good to see lace as a subject of an article, in a
big newspaper like NYT.
