Dear spiders,
Sorry it's taken so long to post this! I was trying to figure out a
way to diagram puncetto because it's easier to see the thread in a
diagram than on a colour photo. Anyway, here it is:

Hi
Today I had a Wonderful Surprise, A Beautiful Christmas Card ,from
My partner Marion Goard in Austrailia ,and a Beautiful
I've just stumbled across a interesting item on eBay. It is for a pair
of bobbins which have a label that says they are from a set of 144 made
for the Crystal Palace Exhibition.
Interestingly enough, I have one of those bobbins in my own (very, very
small) collection of antique bobbins. So,
I was curious as to what you like on your bobbins. Do you like plain different
types of wood bobbins, or fancily turned bobbins, or do you like crystals in
your bobbins, or spliced wood, glass, metal,bone or hand painted bobbins. If
hand painted do you prefer holidays, floral, birds, animals
The post office is surpassing itself. I, in Oregon, received a lace card from
Australia in four days! Marian sent a lovely tatted Christmas Tree with sequin
ornaments on it. It's so dainty.
I also received a beaded bobbin lace ornament from South Aftrica, from Dot. It
has the design of a
There's not a single, simple answer to what kind of bobbins I like. I have a
wide variety, and use and like all of them. I started with Midlands bobbins
because that's what my teacher used. I enjoy looking at and using painted ones
as well as just finely turned woods. One of my favorite
In response to Sherry's message about her bobbins, I'm writing to say
that I bought two of them when she listed them recently, and they
arrived quickly and were well-packed. I can attest to the fact that her
bobbins show how much work has gone into them!! I'm very happy with the
two I got,
You are indeed lucky, Alice!!
I am eagerly waiting for a package posted to me from the UK sixteen days
ago!! I'm suspecting that it may be log-jammed in customs.
It is, however, larger than a flat packet, so that may be part of the
problem. But every day, I'm just *sure* this is the day it
I am sure in my mind that their are both fashions and personal likes and
dislikes.
Actually I have written an essay (that is being vetted by a friend) about
just this thing.
Lace makers talk mostly about smoothness in handling their bobbins, they
also have favourite makers, there is quite a
Hiya Clay,
Thank you so much for your compliments. They are so much appreciated. I am
hoping though that all my bobbins sell. Having money to Christmas shop for my
love ones will bring me great joy when they get their gifts and to have the
feelings myself that I was able to sell my artwork
Being prompted by Clay, and procrastinating as usual, I went to E-bay
and exercised the Buy it Now option and got Sherry's painted black
bobbin with Hear the Peacefulness in gold with a matching spangle. I
love her painted black bobbins. According to the description, this is
the last of her
Along with the regular Thursday Ebay Alerts, I've just posted a piece on
LaceNews about German lacemaker Raucherfigurs. You don't see these everyday.

Hi Sherry, I believe that I have one of your Celtic bobbins. I have

insurance purposes, and there were 3,000 plus a couple of fragile antique

My favorite pillows are block, which are very flat on top. Therefore, the
bobbins I work with mostly are Swiss. They have pointed bottoms, good for
