[lace] Lacers of the Lake--LOL

Hello All! Oh happy day! My friend Cyndi (& fellow member of LOL) finished our group "seascape banner" & it arrived via USPS today. I posted a photo to Flickr, but OMG, I wish you could all see it in person! It is beyond my wildest dreams--a group project featuring various types of lace

The Fashion Museum in Bath has sent out a publicity notice of a class this coming weekend. This might be a subject for discussion on Arachne, or for a newsletter article (if an expert is too shy to share directly with Arachne). Here are the details - re-typed because of our limitations

[lace] IDRIA Lace 5-Way Join through one bead, and hanging beads

One of our most talented bobbin lace makers here in Maine contacted me early this morning with a technical question that I cannot answer. But, someone on Arachne can! I told her we might get a speedy response because in Europe it is already afternoon. I requested a description of the
