Issue of the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club (New York) covering lace history, relief embroidery, and religious art. Marian Powys describes a 1661 English bobbin lace collar with royal crowns and inscriptions associated with Charles II and Catherine of Braganza, comparing it to Honiton lace. Other articles cover an embroidered altar frontal of St. George and the Dragon in Barcelona, stumpwork-style relief embroidery, and tapestries and a chasuble illustrating the doctrine of Transubstantiation. The issue also has club notes on a Spanish collection (rugs, tapestries, laces), book notes on needlework and Sheldon tapestries, officer lists, and advertisements.
