Wow, some stunning photographs Ilske.  You certainly work 'outside the 
square' to make so beautiful pieces of lace.


Cheers and stay safe everyone.

Re: [lace] Photos of my lace stand

[Clay Blackwell]

Hi Agnes!

I am so impressed with your pillow stand!  It is certainly travel-friendly and
the custom platform can be tucked into the same bag as the lace pillow!

I do have one question.  It looks like you have put the grip for adjusting the
head to be protruding under the pillow directly toward the lacemaker.  Does it
get in the way?  Or would it have been harder to find had it been on one side
or the other under the pillow.  Just curious!!

I would be very interested in your printed instructions!  Thanks for sharing.

Re: [lace] Photos from OIDFA Adelaide Congress

[Jeriames]

Dear Jean and David,
 
Thank you!   Who did the photography?   
 
Did everyone notice on the Lace Wine swan label by Lauran  Sundin that the 
gold wire, purple thread, and pearls contains her  initials, and that it is 
finished as a necklace?  Maybe her students  at Waddesdon Manor in September 
will see it.
 
The architectural and lacy ironwork are fabulous, beautifully framed  with 
tree branches, structural elements, etc.  The black swan is  fantastic.  
 
Viewing these photos reminded me of Our Lacemakers of Maine  handout for 
demonstrations.  It is a folded-in-half sheet of  paper, that opens like a 
book.  On the front is our logo by Lori  Howe (Lacefairy) and an April 29, 1939 
quote I found from Coco  Chanel:  
 
I consider lace to be one of the prettiest imitations ever made of  the 
fantasy of nature; lace always evokes for me those incomparable designs  which 
the branches and leaves of trees embroider across the sky, and I do not  
think that any invention of the human spirit could have a more graceful or  
precise origin.

Jean and David, the photos of Adelaide you have put on the  OIDFA site are 
superb.  Thanks for all you both do for Lace.

Re: [lace] Photos

[Sue Babbs]

Clay and I are trying to find a work around / secondary password to allow 
people outside the United States to upload their own photos. We need a 
computer literate person outside the USA to help test this, please!


Meanwhile the easiest approach is for me to upload them for you.

Send me a private email with:
   the photos
   title of the lace (if there is one)
   a description of the lace
   tags (e.g. Needle Lace, Honiton, Binche etc.)
   what set you wish the photos to be put in

I do not find Flickr to be intuitive to use (other than for simply viewing 
the photos), and it keeps changing it's layout, and where you find out how 
to edit info and sets.  So adding all the info when uploading is much the 
easiest


And for Janet Theaker, who doesn't seem to get my messages directly:
I guess you are not receiving my emails as you have not replied to any of my 
earlier messages offering to upload your photo.  It is much easier for me if 
I get all the information at once. Please let me have that, and I will then 
upload it.

Re: [lace] Photos from Fliker

[Avital]

Mary,

This is not a download coming from Arachne. It's a service provided by
hotmail. Many web-based mail services now have a feature where they
include thumbnails of links that are in the message. Because the
Arachne footer includes a Flickr link, hotmail adds thumbnails of the
photostream. No one is actually sending the photos to you and they do
not add to your download limit. Gmail does the same thing with Flickr
links.

Hope this clears things up!

Re: [lace] Photos of Reticella Lace

[Brenda Paternoster]

It's certainly hand made, but I agree that it doesn't look to be 17th century.  

There was a revival of 'Reticella' in the 19th century promoted by the art 
critic John Ruskin (friend/associate of the pre-Raphaelite painters).  This 
'Reticella' s known as Ruskin lace work.

 I don't believe that this was actually *made* in the 1600's, because who'd
 sell it to anything other than a museum if it really was, however, the
 style is definitely from the late 1500's to early 1600's.

Thanks for the link! Excellent photos, as you say worth a look.

 'rare 17th C...' so it would have been made in the 1600's... looks
nearly new!??
It isn't drawnwork/cutwork with buttonhole stitches as described -
although it *looks* like it. Up close the bars resemble Venetian
braid. Something is telling me 'machine made' !

In most parts of Spain red was the colour used for prickings. And continues
being. In other parts of Spain, yellow has been used, also green.

Nowadays, it seems that most lacers continue using red or orange. But I
myself use blue, as I find it more relaxing for my eyes. I started using
blue after a German lacer told me.

I suppose that, at the very beginning, lacers didn't think so much whether
the chosen colour was good for their eyes or not. They used some natural
product they had at hand to dye the cardboard. It's just a guessing...

I printed a Lace-RXP Tønder pattern recently on deep pink card, and found 
that the contrast between it, the gimp lines and the white thread (Egyptian 
cotton 140/2) was much better than when using white card covered in blue 
plastic. I was surprised as I had always used blue or green before (and 
generally dislike pink) but it was much easier to work on, especially when 
the daylight began to fade.

[Tatman]

I work at a band uniform company that deals with fabric, threads and
tailoring. Yes I do make use of odds and ends that I collect either for
tatting or bobbinlace.  My wife and I also make costumes every year for the
HS musicals.  So often go dumpster diving for fabric!
During B.C.(Before Computers) the tailors would use this waxed coated
orange, stiff card to draft the garment patterns onto.  It was used millions
of times to trace out patterns on the material before cutting.  Now that we
do everything by computer, I did manage to get my lacing fingers on one of
these huge sheets of 1.5mm thick card stock.  I use it mainly for my Honiton
lace or if I know a lace project will be used constantly.  Of course I have
to preprick(I rarely do otherwise) with the appropriate size pricker/pin.
Can't find any more of these sheets here at the factory.  The patterns from
ages ago are still used here for special creations.  But I am sure there is
some secret stash.;)  Don't know the actual name of the thick card
stock, other than tailoring card stock.

Thank you, to all of you, for your compliments.

My Binche pieces are all from the Binche-lace school.
They have of course the pattern from the binche-books you can buy, but
the little circles are pattern of Mrs. Blanchard, she is drawing a new
one each year for the lace-exam, so I made a few before the exam to
practice. Officially you have to finish the piece in 20 hours.
Inofficially you can take up to 25 or 30 hours, but you have to work in
class only.
My exam-Binche-piece is not in my album. I will make a scan and put it
in the album in a few days.My duchesse exam-piece was the
Greek-Mandrogan- player.

Re: [lace] photos

[Avital]

Have to chime in here. That photographer is LAZY and can't be bothered
to get the attribution. There's really no excuse in this age of
digital photography when we no longer pay for every frame we shoot.
All he has to do is take a clear photo of a tag or business card or
label.

A couple years ago I photographed Anna, a Polish lacemaker, at an
international arts  crafts fair in Jerusalem (she photographed me,
too; I just found my picture in one of her albums).

http://www.flickr.com/photos/spindexr/2783769732/

I also photographed her business card among her laces and was able to
put her name on the description of the photo. Eventually she found the
photo and wrote to me about herself via my Flickr account. Then a few
months ago she found me on Facebook and friended me. If he were
really interested in lace, you'd think he would make an effort to
document his photos.

 I do understand the problem that Ilske refers to.  There is a photographer who
 has a flickr account and posts lots and lots of photos he takes at lace
 exhibitions in Europe.  He never gives attributions.  I've pointedly asked him
 in a few cases who made or designed the laces and he seems to think it is
 asking too much, that he shouldn't be expected to notice the name of the
 contributor.  My plan with him is that every time I see him post a new photo,
 I'm going to ask who made it and designed it.  Eventually it may get through
 to him that he needs to record that information.  I have not written to flickr
 to make a formal complaint, because, frankly I do want to see his pictures.
 He allows me to see laces I would never know about otherwise.  I just want to
 educate this guy about his moral responsibilities.

Dear Alix,
 
All your pieces of lace are gorgeous, especially the mats, but the first mat
is WONDERFUL. It is one of the most beautiful pieces of lace I have ever seen,
in or out of museums. 
 
May I post the link to your photos on my wall on facebook? I'd love to have my
friends see what modern (or at least Art Nouveau) lace can look like from the
hands of a truly skilled lacemaker.
 
Your fan!
Nancy

them yourself or where can one find the prickings?

2 and 7 are my own pattern, with a lot of help from my teacher
1 is a pattern from Irma Boone my needle lace teacher
3 a pattern from Leona Parfait, the pattern is for duchesse but I worked
is as a needle-lace out of the duchesse.lace Edition Carpentier.
4 and 5 are pattern I changed to fit the frames both not larger than 4,5
cm.
6 is a pattern from my teacher Helene Blanchard.

my next project is a handkerchief for my  daughter in Law from the book
Jugendstil of the German klöppelverband. I hope that I will finish it
for the marriage in july, we will see.

I am happy those laces please you, if I find more pictures , I will post
them too, but it seems I lost a lot of my scans in crashes, updating and
changing computers in the last years never missed them until today..

Re: [lace] photos of cards from the exchange

[Barbara Joyce]

A funny sidelight:

Yesterday I wrote private email to Bev and ended with the fact that I'm just
a short drive south. Well, that's partially true, but as Bev tactfully
pointed out to me, the trip between our homes must also include a ferry
ride! Blub, blub! ;-)

This entitled Bev to make a small, and unimportant mistake, but since I love
Snoqualmie (my adopted home of less than four years) so much, I will make
the correction that I am not in Snohomish (also a nice place, considerably
north and west of here).

Yes, exactly. We have many Native American tribes in this area, and many
cities are named after them. Enumclaw, Puyallup, etc. Say EE-num-claw and
Pew-AL-up (that's pew as in a church, and Al, like the nickname for Allan).
It's a challenge for newcomers, but we natives take it all in stride!

Re: [lace] photos of cards from the exchange

It is SO refreshing to hear the Native names, and pronounced (hopefully) as
they once were.  In Virginia, we have the Monacan, Seminole, Shenandoah,
Rappahanock, Chincoteague, Assateague, and Puncateague, to name a few, and
except for the first two, either towns or regions have been named for them.
Our local Native American descendants are very active and have Pow-Wows
annually to keep their traditions alive.

And to keep this lace related...  One of the first bits of old lace I
ever saw was a bit of Sprang (if I'm not mistaken), made by Indians in
the Southwest in the mid 1800's.

RE: [lace] Photos on Webshots

[Patricia Dowden]

Thank you Ilske!  I put a couple of samples of my
Ipswich Lace up.  I have a few more photos to add, but
I wanted to see how this worked.

http://community.webshots.com/album/248498829kltBZL

Hi Diane,

Looking at your samples, which are lovely, made me think that you could 
conceivably include them in the definition of Foral Torchon.  I really like the 
half stitch motifs, so reminiscent of Chantilly.

I will have to dig out my Ipswich boot and take a closer look.

Well done, lacing and posting to Webshots.
