Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Witch Winnie in Venice and the Alchemist´s Story "Shreds and Patches" is the title of the last chapter of the present volume; and the author is aware that the entire book - with its scraps of history "cut out of whole cloth its numerous quotations; its old characters familiar in former stories; its personal impressions, theories, and moral reflections; its endeavor to be instructive and yet amusing; and all this held together by the most transparent film of plot - is but "a thing of shreds and patches.". My only apology is that this is exactly the process employed in the manufacture of the finest point applique lace. It is the work of many hands. The tiny flowers may have been cut from other and more antique specimens. They are "applied" on a web of cheaper machine-made net, or united by brides or tiny lacets, and bordered more or less elaborately, while the spaces between the sprigs and flowers were filled in with various kinds of stitches.
