| Dear members, | Rheinfelden, July 4th, 2001 |
| I am glad, to have found also for
this present Newsletter conservators and interested
people who help me with news and contributions. Many
thanks go to: Christine Aribaud, Marianne Ellis, Pat Griffiths, Tatiana Kossourova, Margret Ribbert, Angela Voelker and Blanda Winter. Sadly I have to inform that our member Ruth Bleckwenn died on 31 May 2001. I met this very engaged textile historian at the Textilmuseum St.Gallen, where she made studies for her book on "Dresden lace". She also contributed to the newsletter several times. Please continue to inform me about chalice veils, textile exhibitions, books, courses and conferences. I am looking forward to the CIETA conference in Lyon this september. Hopefully we will be able to discuss the vocabulary project. I shall bring a list with pictures of embroidery stitches and I would appreciate your help very much. Best wishes yours Anne
Wanner-JeanRichard please note the slight change (diax, instead of dplanet) in the adress |

Book: Himmlische Rosen ins
irdische Leben: |
| Himmlische
Rosen ins irdische Leben embroidery patterns of 19th c. by Margret Ribbert Historic Museum Basle, Switzerland, 2001 |
| The pattern are not only beautiful to look at they also show the blooming sense of family and friendship of the first half of 19th c., the retreat into the security and cosyness (comfort) of the house and of private live. These embroideries point to the part of women who at that time were patient and endurant, following rules and odds. |

Book: Aemilia Ars: |
| C. Bernardini, D. Davanzo
Poli, O. Ghetti Baldi (eds) Aemilia Ars. Arts & Crafts Bologna 1898-1903 published by Musei Civici d'Arte di Bologna and A+G edizioni, Milan, 2001, text in Italian, bibliography, illustrated in colour and black and white The large number of illustrations and the fact that the lace and embroidery enterprise is shown here in the context of Aemilia Ars as a whole make this book a must for any museum with a lace and embroidery collection. It further contains biographies of all the leading artists and designers involved in the enterprise and is in general a very welcome amplification and extension of the book of 1929 by Elisa Ricci. |
