Thanks Avital for sharing this link.     You are right about the needlework!  Such great 'goldwork' and other surface stitching.   It is so great that we can share links like this from one country/culture to another with this technology!!?!?!??!!!   Karen Bovard The ShuttleSmith Omaha, Nebraska htt

Hi Avital and fellow Arachnids, Thank you Avital, a very interesting set of images and explanations. I would love to see the whole exhibition, but that is impossible so this is the next best thing. Happy holidays, Joepie -Original Message- From: Avital Sent: Friday, April 18, 2014

[lace] "Dress Codes" Exhibit at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem

2014-04-18 Thread Avital
Dear spiders, I haven't seen this exhibit of Jewish clothing yet, but I looked at the site. It allows you to zoom in. You click a topic, then click a thumbnail of a garment. The garment appears in a thumbnail in the upper left corner window and you can drag around a "zoom" box to see a close-up.
