Dear Hèlène,
I made for the IOLI a list with the german museums which have allways laces
in display but I don't know if they print it separately and give it to them
who ask about or if they will print it in one of the further Bulletins. You
could ask there and find out.

The needle holes in your pattern are from couching down the trace, correct? As long
as you felt you did a good job with that the first time, and are careful to use the
same holes this time, I wouldn't think it would be a problem. Remember, the couching

What and how are rolled edges. Does it mean that a thread is twisted
around the wire on the edge to hide the wire?
Can someone advise me?

First, thanks to Tamara for presenting a great summary of the Polychrome class. It was
a terrific class and I'm sooo grateful I was lucky enough to get in. I **loved** the
class and loved the idea of mixing/blending different strands of silks to get just the
right color.

There's been some Chat all along, but
Yep. Same stuff as the horse soap. Just costs a lot more when they put it
in a small jar and call it Quilt Soap, or Fabricare, etc.

Sue Babbs forwarded the question to me and it arrived before my lace and

I actually buy the large jar of Orvus and use it for laundering cottons and
other fabrics that I want to keep bright. Years ago I noticed that the

Rolled edges is a technique used in Withof lace, and is beautifully
described and diagrammed in Yvonne Scheele-Kerkhof's book Dutch Bobbin
Lace Patterns. It isn't difficult to do, and to my mind forms a nicer edge
than the regular sewing edge. It is done around a motif after the motif is
finished.
Hi, Diane,
I think you're asking the wrong person!! VBG
All I can say is that I don't think it is made of wire if it has rolled edges.
I don't think it would be possible. Rolled edges are usually mae with thread.
If you had a wire frame around the mask, the thread is more likely to be
