Hallo Barbara and all spiders, I saw some wonderful fan sticks at the
Birmingham lace fair last year made by Malcolm Cox and I know he is going to
be there again this Christmas fair, he also makes the most beautiful mother
of pearl fansticks ( very expensive but believe me if I had the spare cash I
would have those) I do not have his website but I expect at least one spider
will have. I am also making the Bucks fan by Bridget Cook it is lovely to
work and I am really enjoying it.
Happy lacing

Subject: Re: [lace] General Fans Information
Jeri's discussion about fan museums and collections triggered a couple of
questions that I've been mulling over for a while. I think I'm finally
skilled enough to try a Bucks fan, for which I have the instructions,
pricking, etc.
(1) Do you know where I could obtain nice fan sticks? I would appreciate
any
recommentdations for woodworkers, and especially if anyone has a lead on
mother-of-pearl fanstick makers.
(2) Do they make fansticks custom-ordered to fit the size of the lace? I
can't imagine how else one would be sure to get sticks the right size.
(3) Are there reference publications that give instructions on how to
mount
the lace onto the fan sticks?
Thanks for any info,
