[lace] The ISG Museum

[Elizabeth Ligeti]

Thank you, Devon, for 2 very interesting articles in the Bulletin. It sounds 
like you had a good time at the Convention!

And an especially big Thank You for the article on the Gardner Museum.  I am 
sure there are many lacemakers like me, who can only view these wonderful 
places through other people's eyes, and I am so grateful that you are 
willing to write up articles so we can all enjoy them.  And with photos - 
OH! that beautiful lappet!! (Photo 2)
What brilliantly clever lacemakers there were in the old days (as well as 
now - I hasten to add!) and what wonderful designers there were, too.  That 
lappet has such a lovely flowing design, with the twirls in the centre, and 
the swirls at the end! It is great to know these things have been 
preserved for us to enjoy.

More lovely articles and photos, please!!! :))

I am glad you enjoyed the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum article. Now that  
my husband and I are "empty nesters" we are having a good time going around to 
 these places.
The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum was very generous in allowing the  IOLI  
to use the photography which is museum photography.
