And I thoroughly enjoyed your report, as usual; people who have both the sense of humour and the ease of using the language are almost as much joy to me as lacemaking itself :)
A few things have occured to me, while reading the report of your efforts to make lace visible:
1) both pieces you "advertised" were made in wire... The lace (I, also, try to wear it, when I leave the house, though my millieu is more likely to be WallMart and the public library than the high-fallutin' venues *you* visit <g>) that seemed to catch the eye here (seldom, and the eye was of people who have neither the time to make it nor the money to buy it) was *also* wire jewelry (mostly made from Lenka's kits). Does that mean that all of us ought to swith to wire, in order to capture the public's attention?
2) As an erst-while linguist, I was amused to see that the two pieces were mirror-imgaged, in a way: one was made by LS (Lenka Suchanek) and one by SL (Susan Lambiris) <g>
3) 'tis a pity *you* aren't "rich and famous" yourself; I bet Julia Robert's chest-display gets a lot of attention... :)
