Double issue (Vol. 35, Nos. 1 & 2, 1951) of the Needle and Bobbin Club's Bulletin. Dorothy G. Shepherd reviews Gómez-Moreno's 1946 publication on the medieval Hispano-Islamic and Mudejar textiles found in the royal tombs at Las Huelgas de Burgos, discussing weave classification (plain compound cloth, fancy cloth, compound twills, tapestry), workshop attribution, and 13 plates. Eugenia Tolmachoff then surveys the costume of court and upper-class women in 16th and 17th century Russia: sarafan, letnik, shouba, head-dresses, footwear, imported fabrics, jewels and embroidery. The issue also has a chalice veil of Italian needlepoint lace from the Cooper Union Museum, club notes and a list of officers for 1951.
