Sue,
you are not the only one. I offered to make two cards but only
received one in return and that one arrived this week. Way into the new year.

Hi everyone -
This has been an interesting thread, but I admit that my foggy brain is not
quite able to understand the advantage here...
I have a copy of the International Lace Dictionary (Spee, van den Kieboom,
Coene) 1998. It is far more comprehensive than the spread sheet, and of course
Hi All
I have to admit that I have copied it onto my computer!! I haven't
got the advantage of the book that Clay has!! (I didn't even know one
existed until just now!!!) The first book I bought was written in
Dutch, fortunately an english translation came with it.

Thanks for that Agnes!!

Dear Spiders,
There just might be a cause for my unhappiness with the bottle of starch I
have and want to know if any of you might have experienced a change in the
quality of your starch with temperature changes. This bottle accompanied me to
the desert where it did get very hot for a
Clay, the book you mention seems out of print. How about making the online
sheet less basic by using your sources? ;-)
I see lots of advantages: the internet is (or will be soon) available
anywhere, anytime (thinking of e.g the iPhone), so you dont have to take a
book with you. And you don't have
No problem, Sue! And not fatal at all - life is fatal!
I also make bobbin lace since 18 months only now, before that I did some
knitted lace (and socks of course), crocheting, and I tried filet work, some
tatting etc. etc.
Best, Achim.

Rather than add more to make the little volume larger, why not do this:
I keep a notebook of working sheets such as the glossary and other goodies

I think that would be the price per package.

The cheapest I can find in UK so far is £9.95 each.
As with many new products, they will be expensive initially and come

Hi all,
I did not take part in the card exchange, but would ask you not to be too
quick to blame your partners if the cards are late in arriving as the mail
does sometimes take a very long time to arrive in distant parts at this time
of the year. My daughter sent me an envelope on the last

Hi Jane -
Yes, this could be part of the problem. I suggest that you find a wooden
skewer which would be long enough to reach the bottom of the bottle, and dip it
all the way to the bottom. If you reach a spongy mass at the bottom, it may
have permanently settled there. Or... it may not be
