They probably bought them from Vivienne in the first place. Do they take
back unused patterns? I wouldn't expect them to.

can be huge like a bedspread. The ebay alencon is made by Leavers mill.

Dear Arachne,
There's been mention lately of cats in the lacemakers' houses. How many do we
really have? Send note privately and I'll report later.
There's 9 here. Only one loves bobbins. I have a cat-free lace room.

Carol has raised a lovely controversial one here. The
first hankie edging I ever made, I machine-stitched it
on without really thinking about it but the others in
my small lace group were horrified. So
fun since I learned how to make them fast and reliably.
Most laces don't have enough of them to get the hang of it because there's
too much other stuff to interrupt the flow. This might be why Maltese has
whole fields of them.

Dear Arachne,
Everytime we lose one of our teachers, we lose an encyclopedia of
knowledge... all those elusive bits of information and the connections that
are never written down. To honor these wonderful teachers, pick up where
they left off. Learn everything you can and share it with anyone
:))) There's actually a Northhampton lace. It quite resembles Bucks. There
are two wonderful examples on the cover the the paperback edition of
Palliser. If you do not have a copy write back and I'll send a scan of the
cover.

If you wanted to, you could use it for a spindle but its really too short
for that, and the yarn would catch in the carving. Check out the website
mentioned with pics of the official mullers that match the item and the song
that goes with the mulling.http://gourmetsleuth.com/molinillo.htm

about it.
The pictures are miserble in the auction so there is no hope of knowing if
the lace is machine made by Schiffli or actually handmade needlelace.
bummer. But for 2 bucks, its a good risk.

Dear Lacers,
I've been hunting for the list of lace teachers no success. One of my
buddies in Cabot Vermont needs help. She's already
got started by herself, but is struggling. Its too long a drive from Indiana
for personal lessons here. Got anybody listed for there?
Thanks,

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.

Looks like Mimosa from Offida Italy. Idrija is similar but varies between
cloth and half stitch, and varies dimension of the ribbons.

Thanks Jean,
I found the pic with your clever clue. :))
Mr. Vitton has clients with way too much money.( Maybe he could share
some. ) The lace is machine made Schiffli embroidery tacked onto one of his
bags. Anyone could make the same thing with some bits from the bridal
department at the
Bucks. I agree with you that pregnant on a Harley is probably not a good
idea. :))
