    Here's to our skilled foremothers.

  13. I couldn't show this for #WIPWednesday when I was working on it, because it's our #lace competition and the creator is supposed to be hidden until after voting. But now I can reveal "Le Tricolore", which just won me $20 at our retreat.

    Original inspiration was a real balloon that was used to escape the Siege of Paris in 1870.

    The competition theme was "Red White & Blue" but did not require it to be American themed.

    All the entries are here: nelg.us/page-1857743

  15. This is an astonishingly great article about historical #embroidery, but also #MaterialsScience and threads and the work of Tricia Wilson Nguyen. She takes an #engineering approach to this work that is so valuable.

    My lacemaker friends worked with her on that Plimoth Jacket she refers to. I'll post that video next so you can see it.

  19. @allysseriordan All sorts. You can search our collection at this link.

    Some are real antiques. Some out of print. Some odd pamphlets. Some contemporary patterns.

    Everything. #BobbinLace #Needlelace #Tatting and more. Heavily bobbin though.

  24. I spent part of yesterday assessing the lace in the #RhodeIsland Historical Society collection on a baby cap reported to belong to a signer of the Declaration of Independence, Stephen Hopkins.

    Look at the cartridge pleats on this teeny cap!

  26. Me evangelizing about the amazing women who made #IpswichLace at a #Rev250 event in #SudburyMA.

    My colleague helps someone complete the "catch-of-the-day" beginner piece of bobbin lace.

  28. #WIPWednesday I was about to say that I just cleared off the pillow for our upcoming lace retreat--we are doing "early lace" samplers and I'm psyched for that.

    But I do, of course, have more pillows... And this one is the one I use to demonstrate Ipswich lace. Our lace group is doing a Revolution 250 event in Sudbury MA on the town common this weekend.

  30. Went to a local museum to visit a piece of lace from ~1820 that we think is #IpswichLace. It's a nice small piece--Anna was skilled. But she did not live to complete the lace. I can tell from her bobbins she was planning to....

    I can't share the research photos but here's the museum entry.

  34. Wow. This university student is doing memes in needlework, and I believe they are a wizard. You must see #GrumpyCat in blackwork #embroidery

    And Harambe in #needlelace. Among others.

    Just go.
