Dear Ann, I think two Ipswich, Massachusetts lace pillow entries are mixed here. Jeri wrote about her very interesting pillow under Ipswich style pillow. Under the Bucks Point discussion I gave a link to the one with the tag, which is in the Smithsonian Museum collection in Washington, DC, USA. You can find it by searching: Smithsonian lace collection, and scrolling to the next to the last object or http://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_644978 By clicking on the title of the Ipswich lace pillow entry, several pictures are available. The text on the label says: "She lived to be over 90, worked on this pillow the day she died. She feared she lacked "dying grace" but God took her while she knelt in prayer". Hope this clarifies.

I can read the first few lines of the tag. (She lived to be over 90 and worked on this pillow the day she died) I canât decipher the rest but would like to know.
