Dear friends I just have to write with a little boast that my lace has been chosen for the front cover of this quarter's Lace. I am also flattered by a double colour page in the magazine as well. The work was produced for my City and Guild Part I, which I completed last year and was submitted, without any encouragement by me, by the tutor, Ann Day. I didn't ever expect it to gain such world wide publicity!
By the way, what are people looking for in the newest Anna magazine? When I was at the Knitting and Stitching show recently I looked through the latest copy and at the publicity for the next one and couldn't spot any lace-related items at all. The infrequency of lace in this magazine has put me off subscribing, although I have quite a few usable patterns from the past. By the way, the Knitting and Stitching show at Alexandra Palace was a wonderful day out and there were even two (!!) genuine lace suppliers there. Also the usual display by the Lace Circle with their dedicated supporters and an excellent stand by the Lace Guild with some lace from the collection on show and several panels of labels produced for the Lacemakers Census. We were told that there were so many entries for this that there are still many to be mounted, so those of us who didn't send in until the last minute will have to wait for our offerings to be displayed. The best thing I picked up at the Knitting and Stitching Show was a new student for one of my classes. Funny how we can spot the right people; we got chatting on the tube on the way to the show!!
