Hi Arachnids What a lot of Digests! I think some lurkers have decided to unlurk, but why should the other lurkers not enjoy the Digests without replying? We are all different and as long as there are sufficient to keep the Digest rolling, does it matter? For those who are enjoying learning from out comments - keep reading, learning and lacemaking. I like the constant questions, and if the same ones reoccur there may be new facts and ideas among the answers. Not all answers will be right for all lacemakers. I have been making bobbin and other laces for over 40 years and I am still learning.
Regarding cover cloths, personally I agree with some of the suggestions and disagree with others. Look at all the suggestions, try the ones you fancy and continue with the ones that suit you. Arachne 20 years - a Stuart Johnson bobbin please, I have a cupboard of cover cloths and I can only use one decorative one at a time. I don't even contemplate counting my bobbins, but I still don't have enough. Happy lacemaking to all, contributors, lurkers and especially all involved in keeping Lace Digest going Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
