Hi everyone and LOL how the survey evolves ;) (by the way you can respond any time and where-ever you are in the world, any season - this is for us at-home while 'the others' are on their lace travels <vbg>)
and a note about storage: in my workroom (big room with glorious piles of books and Stuff) there is a particular stack of O's (objects) = my cookie pillows. On a shelf are the several roller pillows; the bolsters have their nooks here and there, and the party piece, the crowning glory, is a slab of builder's foam replete with UFO, a tape lace pattern 'Songbird' from Cook and Korableva. I could swear it has been there for 10 years - and I remember how thrilled I was with the setup because the foam plank, with only the few pairs was so *easy* to store - upright, or flat (and stuff piled on it) - the easiness has been its bane (= out of sight, out of mind!) - but it could only have been 5 years because the book was published in 1996, and I would have bought it at a lace day in 1998 (etc. etc.). I remember finding the filling tedious, but have since changed my mind - fillings in Russian tape lace are fascinating to do - puzzle out their pathways on a spare copy of the pricking, and away you go. The question is - will this be the season the Songbird becomes a FO ? -- bye for now Bev in Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) getting ready for a Canada Day bbq - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
