I do not have her contact information and due to her health I'm pretty sure
she wouldn't be able to have one for me for 12th night. ;)
If you could ask her if she knows who does thought thatwould be great!
Thanks!

Lady Anne the Spinster makes them here in the Dallas area. I remember
watching her make it at an event we were at together.
I do not know what her health is like now so not sure if she is still making
them but I bet she knows who does. :D

Hello Everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get a beaded caul? I saw a Lady

know where it came from. My attempts to make one mys

I'm happy you like it, Donna. I sent it late in hope I

to you on time!

Could you share his name & address, the shop that is. I'm on Long Island and
my boyfriend is in Massachusetts so I drive by Bridgeport constantly. Not
that I really need more fabric, trim, or anything else!

Along with Moda a Firenze as a major source for Italian Ren information, I would
also recommend the book for the "At Home in Renaissance Italy" exhibition.
Amazon has the hardcover for about what we paid for the paperback, which I've
only seen at the V&A gift shop.
