A friend gave me an article from Thursday's Wall Street Journal....titled "New Life for the Historic Art of Lace-Making".
The story and most of the pictures can be found here: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704471904576230881696059622.html?KEYWORDS=Historic+Art+Lace-Making Or search Wall Street Journal and put Historic Art Lace-Making in the Search Box at the top of the page. The story takes most of a full page of the Journal, and features Leavers Lace. The online version has a video with part of the story. The story is about dress designers using a lot of lace in their designs. They say that the Chinese lace is much less expensive but poor quality. The designers insist on the French made lace even if the price of the item is higher. The designs being shown this year will be in the stores next year. Just thought you might like to know that lace is still alive in the fashion world.
