[lace] the Magazine
Hooray, - some decent reading for later on!!! The IOLI Bulletin has just arrived, so mail is getting though, though slowly. With everything closed â including Libraries, - Lockdown has been rather boring!! Thank Goodness for our Lacemaking!!! At least we all would have had lots to do â and even, perhaps, finished a few UFOs. (shock! Horror! ð ) We lost our âState Branch of the Guildâ Librarian, early on in the Lock-down, and had to watch the funeral on the computer. It was SO sad to see her family â only 8 of them allowed, all sitting apart, due to regulations. They needed to be together and hugging and supporting each other. We will miss her a Lot. She will be a âhard at to followâ. She was always telling us to Finish what we were working on, so as a tribute to her, we decided we would each finish a UFO in her memory! I have found the discussion that Devon and others have been having on Lace IOLI Identification and History has been fascinating. Thank you for all the photos and information. Lace has such a complex, but wonderful, history, and I am so glad there are people who can delve into it, and write it up for people like me!! Very Many Thanks. Regards from Liz. L. Melbourne, Oz,. â where it is getting Very close to winter, now!!! - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] Mystery lace
Devon, Fascinating, crazy piece of tape lace - or at least that's what I'd call it. Which is likely not the answer you really wanted. I wish we could flip it over and see the other side.

Hungarian. See"The Art of Lace-making in Hungary" by Maria Csernyanszky, Corvina Press,1962. Budapest.Pictures starting page 51. Details starting page 53. "Lace with Noue (looped) Ornamentation. According to the book, this type of lace may be traced to Flanders, Brussels, and then centered in old Hungarian bobbin lace. In some pieces it was used for ground, and in others was also used in the pattern. Samples of the lace vary from highly skilled to fairly coarse. I have several pieces of this type of lace in my collection and was intrigued. Somewhere in my books I have a modern pattern using this technique that's on my long list of 'someday'. Alice in Oregon -- where I'm hanging out at home doing all kinds of projects. Just finished making a lace hat. Don't know when or where I'll wear it. Next project is a lamp shade. Weather is chilly and often damp. I try to catch the sunny bits to work outdoors.
