Dear Lace Makers,
Diane Z called me this morning to ask if I would forward the message below,
since she was having a problem with her e-mail provider or computer that
has not yet been sorted out. The message came to me just fine, but her
mails to _Lace@arachne_ (mailto:Lace@arachne) were
Thanks Diane and Jeri. Gosh, who knew that WalMart sells lace bobbins? It
seems they have quite a range - not sure if they are all from Lacis - but
the prices are certainly good.

Hello everyone, it sounds like a good deal!
How it works is the item is shown on the WalMart online platform not at
WalMart store itself; the retailer is given as 'Stuff4' an e-commerce
dealer.
Is Lacis not selling bobbin lace materials any more? I went to their
website to the mail-order listings
Hi,
Some square bobbins were loaned to me through this group so that I
could try them. I loved them and have purchased some for myself.
Would any one else like to try them? I'd be happy to send them on to
you. Email me with your snail mail address privately. If I don't hear

I love to use square bobbins for most of my work, especially if there are sewings such
as in Milanese and as a beginner they are very economical to buy. They used to be $8
a dozen but I believe the price has increased since the dollar value dropped. The
only problem with the cheap ones is
Hi everyone
I am not at all a fan of square bobbins - they don't suit my method of
working on any sort of pillow or with any style of lace (and I do heaps of
laces) - however, should a newbie invest in them? If you like the idea and
can afford them, I don't see why not - unless you'd like to
Hello
I love working with square bobbins as they don´t roll around like my usual
continentels. I had a lot of round bobbins and my husband grounded them
square with some machine, that was my thickest continentals. I also have
thinner continentals but I am afraid they would be just like a lollipop

Hi everyone
It's been a while since we've had one of our little freeby raffles. As
usual, no strings attached, other than you must like using square bobbins.
Just send your name to me, I'll draw on December 1, and will mail to
anywhere. The prize - 4 square bobbins in cherry wood, modelled after
Hi everyone,
I like to work and often do work with spangled bobbins on some projects and
all kinds of continental bobbins with other projects but, to be perfectly
honest, square bobbins I absolutely loathe. They are slow, cumbersome, hard
to grasp because so much of the bobbin lies flat on the
I love square bobbins, and have asked all the UK lace suppliers I know
about
them . . . . there doesn't seem any demand for them in the UK , so no
supply

Chris Parsons does them. They're not on his website or in his catalogue,
but if you phone him, he'll send them. (

Hi, lacers,
I am a very eager reader for years already but a lazy writer.
At least now I do !
In Germany in my area (Frankfurt and further south) square bobbins are
very popular. They are used for all types of lace and very successful.
