Thanks Robin for that gorgeous closeup.

Re: [lace] Queen's Blue lace hat
Yes, I'm sure it is machine made; possibly chemical lace neatly snipped apart and stitched to the hat.

[lace] Queen's Blue lace hat
http://i2.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article940892.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/Queen+Elizabeth+II+leaves+a+Service+of+Thanksgiving+in+Saint+Macartin%27s+Cathedral+in+Enniskillen Here is a close up of the hat with trim. I'm 100% sure its machine made. It looks like a guipure trim that was bought by the yard (you can see how VERY repetitive it is), but it may (more likely) have been produced for this outfit. I wonder if the bits on the lower dress were panels that were fitted together for that look. I've done that a few times on dressed. I checked a couple of my fave lace suppliers and no matches, but a lot of similar. I do love that you can make out her hat pins. -- Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. - Douglas Adams - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
