Hi Weronika and all
If you can't get contact paper right away, put the pricking into a sheet
protector (student supply places should sell sheet protectors?). Trim away
excess and pin to pillow through the plastic/pricking paper layers. Sheet
protector plastic isn't as durable as contact paper, so
Hello Jean,

Never mind that there's little evidence that bobbin lacemaking even
existed in medieval times, (snip)

I think that any writing that mentions 'lace ' and 'medieval' in the
same context needs more
My personal solution is to get the pattern photocopied on to coloured paper,
cut it to size, then have it laminated - all at my local copy shop. As the
lamination is just heat-sealing in very thin plastic, there's no glue to worry
about. Also, you can choose whatever colour of paper suits
Just on this one point - I've noticed that many historians who

Modern History will count the English Medieval period as ending at the

Personally I don't like pinning through adhesive and I just use a
photocopy of the pattern, over a piece of card, all pinned to the pillow.
Lately for getting a sample done quickly, I've even dispensed with the
card - easier to pin through
Forgive me for this message, but I am so excited! I just have to share this

This brings to mind the solution suggested when this subject was last on
the list (two years ago, maybe?) There are little devices sold in craft
shops which laminate anything you want (within reason, of course!), and
while the cost might seem steep at first glance, if you use it strictly for
Conga-Rats!

Things I've learned from my Children
(honest no kidding):
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a
2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run
over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3. A 3-year olds voice is louder
I have a strong suspicion -- Weronika? -- that Poland is now aping the
custom (along with many others). When I was growing up, the dates were
not only written in the day, month, year sequence (the logical
progression from the smallest to the largest unit), but the month was

I've never heard the month/day/year version before coming to the US, so
