Volume 1, Issue #1: WINTER 1986
Page Count: 32
Notes: Thanks to Mary Lowry for sharing the Table of Contents and the cover with us! She was given a handful of these issues as a gift from her lace instructor, and she took the time to go through this issue to construct a ToC of the contents so we'll know what's there!(thank you!!!). You can see Lieve hadn't settled on a name for her periodical yet...and I now have a copy of this issue from Mary Mangan, an excellent researcher with a grant to fill in the Wikipedia pages on lace! Thank you so much for helping to fill in this excellent periodical on lace!
