I will post more about the exhibit when I return home (lots of pictures), but let me share a couple photos with you now. We spent approximately 1.5 hours with Mrs. Szigethy in her home. It was so good to see her again. Despite the language barrier we were able to communicate via our mutual love of needle arts.
My mother showed Mrs. Szigethy how to tat...
And Mrs. Szigethy showed my mother how the Hövej lace is made.
Each has worked on her respective craft her entire life. Mrs. Szigethy learned how to make the lace when she was 10 years old; my mother learned how to tat when she was 13.
It was a great day. Today is going to be another great day!
