So glad you are OK, Alice in Oregon. We saw on the TV news about your
floods, and I was wondering how you were.
I hope all other lacemakers in the area are OK. Too.
You can send some of that rain over here as soon as you like, and as much as
you like!! We are desperate for rain all over the southern part of
Australia. It is the worst drought in memory, and over a huge area - like ½
of USA.
Welcome to the new members, and I hope you enjoy Arachne as much as the rest
of us.
I dropped my pillow, upsieddown once early on in my Lacemaking "career", and
learned then to pin down all my bobbins before going to a demonstration,!!!
The pillow - a 24inch straw-filled pillow, was just tied up in an old
tablecloth - the 4 corners coming to the top, and being tied together. I
caught the leading edge of the pillow on the lip of the car as I lifted it
out, and ...................!! My demonstration consisted of untangling a
lot of bobbins and threads!! (Well, I thought it was a lot of bobbins in
those days, but not too many by my current work!!)
I had a budgie who loved to help me make lace - the spangles and pins
fascinated him! He loved to try to pull out the pins - unfortunately not
the back pins, but the ones I had just put in!!!
