Jeri, the latest problems with sending post to the USA stem from someone
sending a small amount of explosive in a toner ink cartridge from the UK to
the USA - presumably as a test to see if it got through; which it didn't so
that shows that checks are as they should be. In spite of the checks
I'm just getting to the end of the last Monica Ferris novel to have been
published in paperback (Blackwork) - there's another one after that, but
it's currently only in hardback.
For those of you who don't know the books, they are about a lady who
inherits a needlework store in Minnesota

We have a system at our monthly meetings of the Aust. Lace Guild in
South Australia which works brilliantly. We donate books to the trading
table (organised by our Librarian) and we pay 50cents per book (fiction

I have written an essay that builds a bit on the fashions of bobbins we talked
about a few weeks ago. It is well developed now into a discussion point about
when and how bobbins may have become spangled. I am told that it will bit be

You are such a prolific essay writer Brianhow about you come to write

Hi,
I have just received a lovely card, with a gorgeous piece of deep red lace and
a calendar which is just the right size for my desk.
Thank you so much Laura. I hope you received my card. It was sent with time to
spare (I thought). The card I sent to friends of mine in Alaska ânot lace

Thanks Jean for the update of the books in the series - I need to get to the
used book store to look for the ones I haven't seen.
I've never done a raffle before, but if anyone hasn't read Crewel World - I

Receiving mail from the USA has also become difficult and the extra
security imposed on packages at the border has beome onerous and

pins. And a wait
Jenny,
Thanks for the reminder to look at the new cards that are posted on your
website.
Nice job everyone. Faye, where did you find the wooden star and centerpiece
for

Our older son lives in Goteborg, Sweden. He gets the large 'if it fits it
ships' box, about 16inches square, and 6 inches deep, which costs $55 to mail
