Before 1665 nearly all the lace made in Flanders was called " Malines." The genuine Mechlin Point (not a needlepoint but a pillow lace), called Point to defin...e its quality, became fash- ionable in England at the end of the seven- teenth century. Queen Anne purchased large amounts of it. Mechlin was also a great favorite of Queen Charlotte. It is regarded as a "summer lace," and was much used to trim the filmy Indian mus- lin dresses so fashionable in the early J nineteenth century. Mechlin lace was always costly. The finest Antwerp thread was used. The ground and pattern are worked together, and two kinds of riseau are used; in one, the meshes are circular; in the other, hexagonal.
