Our IOLI lecture today, by Anita Jones, was about the Cone sisters and their impressive lace collection that almost nobody knows about. Jones has images from an exhibit she worked on years ago from a hard drive that was in storage. Very little online.

At least I was able put this detail into today so someday someone will find it....
