Being familiar with the St. Gallen Textile Industrie, I must say that the article is not so bad as you think.
Her biggest mistake is using the word lace for the product. I have never seen the word lace for St. Gallen products, as the town has not a big historie of hand-made lace. It has been known for its embroidrie hand made and later machine-made and as the article says machine-made lace where the support is washed away and fo their fabrics. To me the text is good just the word lace has nothing to do in it. For any one who will be near St. Gallen, they have a nice textile museum with a big library full of textile related books, including a lot of lace-books. best wishes Alix from Luxembourg - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
