Hi, Karisse,
I've never had anything to do with lace iron-on patterns, but I remember

Another tidbit about framing and humidity. Wood, paper, and cotton stuffing
(cellulose products) have a strong control on humidity, even in well-sealed
containers. I recently did some research on this topic (for natural history

Most important thing to remember is not to make the elastic too tight or it
will give your friend a blinding headache! A diameter (measured around, not
across) of about 22 inches will fit most women.
I don't understand this measurement. Diameter is across
Is there anyone going to IOLI that needs a room-mate? I just now became

Sorry--I was trying to be so careful and I missed that once. Yes, it should

Just a short note from Prague's Agricultural

courses are being held. We're now on the second day

Helene,
Don't you hate it when your parents do that to you?! (I have to be
careful here, as my mum is on the list :-) ) You'd think that they'd
have the decency to ask - and ask if they've got everything, if they're
going to the trouble of packing a crate for you! Sheesh! :-) I know my

Nine jabots is an awful lot of jabots. Maybe we could limit the honor to
female Supreme Court Judges. This would keep it to a much more manageable number,
she said cynically. I can see it now: The International Old Lacers salutes the

If you will go to the following link you will see a picture of Supreme Court
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsbug wearing a jabot. It is not a lace jabot. However,
Ginsburg may represent the thin edge of the wedge in Aurelia's plan to subvert
the US judiciary to lace purposes.
A Supreme Court portrait contained at

Jean,
You could just do a crazy quilt type sweater with your wool. My mum
(Liz in Melbourne, Oz) has made 1 or 2, and I think maybe got the idea
from her Mum (she'll know that story for sure), and you just knit each
block as it tickles your fancy. Wish I had a picture to share, but I
don't.
