Last night I went through more needlework books than I can remember while I did something. In the process I ran into instructions for netted jupon which had steel run through the netting. What piqued my interest was that I am very sure it was pre '56. It also made a comment along the lines of "like lately done"regarding the steel. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I was sure I could get back to it (it was late, it was hot, I was delusional  Roll Eyes ). Given what I have looked at tonight there is a chance that it's not in the book's table of contents. It resurfaces with slightly different wording in several publications in '62, http://books.google.com/books?id=prQRAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PR3&ots=QzAk7vYLJe&dq=%22netted%20jupon%5C%22&pg=PA275#v=onepage&q=%22netted%20jupon%5C%22&f=false I want to compare the two versions. I might just be insane enough to try to make one  Shocked

Way cool! 


I want one, too!  Makes sense to create openwork fabric then weave the steel/bone in to make a skirt support!

Until the cage is available in your town for very little,  of course.

Thanks for noticing this, Beth.
