Subject: [lace] Rubber bands - and a raffle


Hi, all

I've got a little pile of red rubber bands suitable for the Beswick
bobbin 
winder, courtesy of the Royal Mail, in front of me. I just counted them
up 
and there are 36 of them. I'll post half a dozen each to Barbara,
Delores, 
Jane and Angel as soon as things quieten down enough at work to get to
the 
Post Office in my lunch hour. That should be enough to last them until
this 
batch perish, and leaves a dozen here if anyone else needs a couple..

Reading the recent posts about buying books while one has chance
reminded me 
that I have a copy of Bridget Cook's Russian Lacemaking which I bought
years 
ago and have never used. I don't think I ever will use it - I no longer
like 
the pattern I bought it for, and nothing else in it is really my cup of
tea - 
so as I believe it's now out of print I'll offer it as a raffle prize so
it 
can find a home where it will be better appreciated. (My lace bookshelf
is in 
danger of collapsing under the weight of all the projects I do want to
do 
someday...)
I'll post it anywhere in the world, the only qualification for entry is
that 
you have to intend to have a go at Russian tape lace. (The technical 
instructions are fairly clear, and being a tape lace it doesn't use a
lot of 
pairs, so it wouldn't be too daunting for a near beginner to have a try
at)

Closing date for entries midnight (BST) Sunday 2nd September.
