A short report on a loan exhibit of laces held at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh in January and February, organized by a committee of local women and tied to a lacemaking class taught there by Miss B. E. Merrill. It lists the types shown, including Venetian, Burano, Argentan, Alençon, Chantilly, Brussels, Binche and Valenciennes, and a modern filet brodé with scenes from Pride and Prejudice. It discusses the attribution of an eighteenth century bobbin lace church flounce with a lotus motif bearing emblems of the Passion, possibly Spanish or Redano lace, and includes a photograph of it.
