Re: [lace] Needle lace
Hello All, thank you very much, Aurelia. I love needlelace and I'm looking forward to following your lessons. Best Regards Tiziana Taranto (Italy) 2007/9/23, Aurelia Loveman [EMAIL PROTECTED]: As every now and then one of us spiders writes something wistful about wanting to make needle lace, I thought it might be nice actually to do something about it. I have posted the first installment of Needle Lace in Five Easy Lessons on my blog, which you can access at: http://aurelove.blogster.com. Tell me what you think.

Re: [lace] Inspirations, pub. by Country Bumpkin, Australia

Perhaps that is because there is already a magazine named Inspirations in England? This 'name change' didn't sound right to me so I have just had a quick and certainly as far back as the year 2000 the Country Bumpkin magazine I have been buying in the UK is called Classic Inspirations. I think I might be right in saying that there is a cross stitch style embroidery magazine called 'Inspirations' (I'm not very interested in those), but if it's the one I'm thinking of, that has also been on sale here for years. But I agree with the rest of you that have seen them, the Country Bumpkin publications are way ahead of most magazines.

Re: [lace] Halas lace flower on ebay
Hello Kate and all others, In the pice on ebay we can't see the three fishes because they aren't in it. In former time they didn't have this sign for their products. After the lady who runs the manufactur in Kishkunhalas it could be an old piece from there. Those who have perhaps the wonderful book/calalogue the picture 469 shows their piece similar to this on ebay. You can find it also on their website www.halasicsipke.hu Greetings Ilske - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [lace] Halas lace flower on ebay
Dear Lacers, The usual three fish symbol is not worked into the flower on ebay. The whole petals appeared to me to be fish. It is better to have the lace in your hand than in a photograph. Thanks for all the lacers who wrote to me. :)Kate Henry Indiana USA - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [lace] Halas lace flower on ebay
Hi Kate, and others... I have the beautiful book, Halaisi Csipke (Halas Lace), but don't know much about the lace except what I have read in the book. I don't see any usual three fish symbols, but I'm sure it's because I don't know what to look for! Would someone who has the book please tell me where to look? I'd love to have this mystery solved! On the other hand, I thought each of the petals of the eBay flower looked like a fish!

Re: [lace] Halas lace flower on ebay
Hello All, I visited the museum at Kiskenhalas around 10 years ago and purchased a flower and a butterfly. You can see the 3 overlapping fish on the lower right side of the butterfly. They are worked in a circle. On the left lower side in the same area is a design worked in a circle. At first glance you do not notice the 3 fish. They are no fish on the flower, and I was told that they do not put them on flowers. I understand that the flowers are often used for weddings, etc., and no fish are worked into that lace. I would have liked to purchase more pieces, but they are rather expensive! Annelore Stone in the shadow of Mt.

Re: [lace] Halas lace flower on ebay
I expect that many of you know that the Australian lace maker Marie Laurie wrote a teaching manual on Halas lace.
