Kat,

I don't, but if you want to get in contact with local people, ie in Lochac,
you might want to consider joining the WCOB email list (Worshipful Company
of Broderers ie Lochac Embroiderers Guild). I'm not sure if Bess is on that
list but there are many others who would probably be able and willing to help.
