A friend was ordering one of the Bowes Museum Lace Catalogues Fine
Fashionable 'Lace from the Blackborne Collection,' and ordered another one
for me, which I collected at Lace Day on Saturday.
What a Feast for the Eyes!
How lucky some of you are, to be able to go and see all this beautiful
!!! Not
only the quantity of the lace, but the exceptional quality.

I don't know the Bowes Museum personally, but have seen some publicity for
their current exhibition (until 18 April 2004). Wedding Belles - two
centuries of bridal gowns. From the brochure, these appear to be positively
dripping with lace!
With best wishes for a wonderful trip
Happy new year

I also went to the web-site and searched lace in collections and got 69
hits. If in fact everything is on the website (not the case at the Met.) it is
not a very impressive collection. My own personal collection is better and I am
not a collector who spends that much money on it. I am not sure
