Traditions should be preserved, not buried and ruined. How many such blunders have there been: with medals and weapons on sculptures? Thank God, they were corrected each time. I think they will be this time too. After all, our lacemakers are lacemakers to all lacemakers. They have earned respect for their incredibly complex work, turning their "products" into world-renowned works of art.
I remember how my mother, in the '80s, came up with the idea of ​​sewing a black evening dress including Vologda lace. It was a real sensation at diplomatic receptions! Foreign diplomats would approach her in droves and ask, "What kind of technique is this?" And my mother would proudly answer, "Our Russian Vologda lace."
So I wholeheartedly support the opinion of these lacemakers 🙋🏼‍♀️
