Issue of the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club (New York) devoted largely to Germaine Merlange's study and catalogue of the Elsberg Collection of Egypto-Arabic embroideries of the medieval period. The catalogue describes numbered fragments (tapestry borders on wool gauze, embroidered linen borders with Kufic inscriptions, a fringed scarf) with notes on stitches, colors, dating and find-spots such as the Fayoum and Fostat. It also includes a short article on a Medici brocade at the Metropolitan Museum, Club Notes (including a talk on opus Anglicanum), Book Notes, club officer lists and period advertisements.
