What a great idea! Wish I could help, but I am a total beginner at the lace
stuff, just learning myself. Will watch to see if this idea takes off!

Subject: [lace] Lace for Apprentices 1-2-3

Dear Lacemakers,

Thinking POSitively:  It seems to me we have progressed enough in recent 
years that someone(s) could design a set of beautiful "Challenge Laces" that
are 
copyright-free for lacemakers worldwide to use to measure their skills
against 
themselves and against the skills of others.  This could be goal oriented --

like the Five-Metre Club sponsored by the Canadian Lacemaker Gazette.  

Any Volunteers to steer this type of project?  A small committee of no more 
than 5 could spearhead this.  An organizer, educator, designer, etc.  Let's 
make it easy to establish and launch, and share with our lace guilds if they
wish 
to participate.  Can we all agree on something like this?  Does a model 
already exist in some country?  

Please, let's get back to lace subjects about which we can do/share
something 
constructive.  Let the Channer mat debate move to Chat (as requested by our 
Web Master).
