Hello All!  With Sue Babbs' generous help, the photos are posted to Arachne 
Flickr.  Please note that some photos have better resolution than others so 
zooming may/may not help on some pictures.  Sorry, I did the best I could with 
my phone, overhead lights etc., however, I hope you agree--something is better 
than nothing!  There are several photos that bring up all sorts of questions:  
Potten Kant, the metallic laces & one photo has no ID because my notes aren't 
clear.  (Could use some help on that one.)  Some exhibit tags are included in 
the photo.  Others, I hope I copied down the correct info!  The impatient 
chauffeur made it a rush job!!  I've never heard of Potten Kant so maybe our 
Dutch members would share what they know?  The metallic laces seemed to be 
tagged as machine made, however, the flat "plate" (goldwork term) is squirrelly 
to work with in embroidery so I'm not sure how this would have worked with a 
machine made lace??  The hankie corner (#13) is stunning!  Th!
 e tiny star-like & flower-like fillings are magnificent.  Hollie Point--well 
until you see it in person, it's hard to imagine the miniature scale of this 
technique.  There's a variety to be sure, but I couldn't get it all.  If it's 
not too late & you live within driving distance, it's worth the journey.  Or 
order the catalogue as noted in a previous post.  Have fun & I hope this sparks 
some discussion as there is plenty to be learned from the examples.  Thanks 
again Sue Babbs!!  Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA USA
