Re: [lace] Christmas Cards
I have received my Christmas cards. A Romanian point candle from Lin, which is the first piece of needle lace I have actually held in my hands! A red and green torchen bookmark from Sheila. I will use this all year round, as red and green are also my family's tartan colours and the bookmark reminds me of the tartan. And a lovely bell from Janet with a sparkly gold gimp in white.

Hi, I have just received a lovely card, with a gorgeous piece of deep red lace and a calendar which is just the right size for my desk. Thank you so much Laura. I hope you received my card. It was sent with time to spare (I thought). The card I sent to friends of mine in Alaska ânot lace makers- got theirs before Christmas, but theirs has still to arrive. Best wishes from Joepie, in misty East Sussex where the temperature has risen to bearable level.

[lace] Christmas Cards for those that missed it
Hi Lacemakers, I have volunteered to run the Christmas Card Exchange this year so it is time for you to decide if you would like to participate. The exchange is open to new and experienced lacemakers and certainly is an enjoyable experience. I will require names by 7th November and will send out pairings one week later, so you can start making cards now. Please do not put your name forward if you will be unable to finish and post your card prior to 4th December, as it is very disappointing if you do not receive a card after sending one. All replies must be sent my email address f...@tpinstruments.com.au Cards must be sent to your partner by 4th December, so they will receive them before Christmas. Jenny Brandis will again be displaying all cards sent so please remember to take a picture of your finished card and email it to Jenny, along with a few details. Previous Arachne card exchanges can be viewed at the following address http://www.brandis.com.au/Arachne/2009/index.html if you would like to look at them. I will require the following information by 7th November if you would like to participate and pairings will be sent out one week later: Name: Address: Email address: Number of cards you want to send: Do you wish to send overseas or your own country Regards Faye Owers Tasmania f...@tpinstruments.com.au - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Thanks, Jenny, for a great display. I especially like Debbie Mouzon's card with the spider web paper embellishment. Can't wait to see the other cards.

Re: [lace] Christmas cards
Just wanted to let you know, that I did receive 2 lovely cards with lace early in December. Jane sent a pretty Battenberg lace and Debbie made a lovely Torchon tree bookmark for me. They are both precious to me. I have to confess, that due to a lot to do in December and then the sudden illness of my daughter, both of my cards were late and I did not scan them. But I contacted my partners and by now both cards have arrived. A few years ago I did not get a card back from one of my partners and never heard if my card arrived. But most of the times I had great exchanges and I like the opportunity of getting to know a lacemaker a bit better.

As the holiday season has ended here, there is now time to thank Alice Howell for arranging the Christmas card exchange and Jenny Brandis for setting up the website. I for one, greatly appreciate your efforts and find the exchange very exciting and very rewarding. I am always very impressed by other people's creativity. I hope we have many more years of exchanges!!

RE: [lace] Christmas Cards
Hi Janice Kathy is the one who sent me the scan and info about that card and I checked my index of Lace Express. Although Eeva-Liisa Kortelahti has 4 mentions in the index none of them seem to cover the wonderful lace made by Angela. Angela, can you clarify this as it is a piece of lace that I would like to try when I get better at lace making. (you would laugh at my attempts at leaves right now) BTW I am going to update the site later this morning so if you bookmark/favourite does not work, try www.brandis.com.au/2007/index.html Jenny Brandis Kununurra, Western Australia -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Janice Blair Sent: Friday, 28 December 2007 6:32 AM To: lace Subject: [lace] Christmas Cards I sent the link for the Arachne cards to all my lace friends so they could see the cards and one of them replied regarding the card at the bottom of page 5 which is a portion of a bookmark shown on a red card: From: Angela Steinhausen To: Kathy Hensel The pattern used was designed by Eeva-Liisa Kortelahti, published in Lace Express. That's the top portion of that Beds design by Barbara Underwood. I checked in my Bedfordshire Lace Collection by Barbara Underwood and the bookmark is on page 103, entitled August and was designed by Carol Andrews. I no longer get Lace Express (too pricey for my pocket) so I could not check if it was attributed to Eeva-Liisa Kortelahti. Maybe Angela can confirm if she did find the pattern in Lace Express. My friend has more eagle eyes than I do. I spotted the bookmark but did not notice the caption.

I agree. I noticed that immediately, since I've made it. It's the top part of a Barbara Underwood Beds pattern for a bookmark.

I think Christmas has come already. Today I received 2 cards in the exchange. One from Noelene from Australia: a lovely candle with the most unique use of a spider with a 'leaf shaped' tally coming out of the center of the spider. I have never seen anything like it. #Two is from Lorenzi Elisabetta in Italy: a lovely Christmas red Hardanger heart with gold thread accents and gold beads.

Greetings Everyone! I've just spent some time on Jenny's website, looking at all the wonderful cards sent around the world by members of this list! There are some stunning cards there!! Thank you Jenny, for all the hard work!! I've made a tiny url for anyone (like me) who had any trouble getting to the site: *http://tinyurl.com/y5z6dp* I wanted to add something to the description of the card I received: Alice Howell made my card, and it has a Gnome family displayed on a snowy mountainside. They are just adorable! The patterns for these Gnomes came from Knypplade Bilder by Fagerlin Hulterstrom - and this is the book (and the designs) which were mentioned recently on the list in response to questions about Santa patterns. So look at the third card down on page two of the Christmas Card site (tiny url above)!!

Hi all, By card exchange do you mean one card exchanged with one other person, or many cards? My already very long list of christmas cards couldn't cope with huge amounts:-) Sue T, Dorset UK, where it is sunny Hi everyone Quiet on the list, isn't it?! Today is dull and damp compared to previous weeks of clear skies, when I was hiding from the glaring sun. Now I'm hiding from the damp, and thinking ahead to Christmas. For the last couple of years we've had a Christmas card exchange on this list. I coordinated it last year - I'm not going to take this on again, so perhaps someone else would like to think about it, if people would like to take part again. I have an idea that I might make one Christmas card (high hopes that it will be clever) and will post it at my blog, to share with you all. I'm mentioning this now because a) it's on my mind and b) if anyone wants to do a card exchange, it is a good idea to plan early ;) -- Bev in Sooke BC (on warm but soggy Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) blogging lace at www.looonglace.blogspot.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- No virus found in this incoming message.

Hi Sue - The card exchange that Bev was talking about is one card exchanged with one other person. The sender makes the card adding a festive piece of lace she has made.

Re: [lace] lace Christmas cards
EXCELLENT suggestion, Bev!! Last year, I did not participate because I had too many irons in the fire... and when the postings of the cards began to come in, I felt so deprived So I will want to participate this year, although - again, I have a few (but not as many) irons in the fire and can't coordinate it...
