OK, Susan...
I was full of pain and compassion for your discomfort and misfortune
with the broken finger, but that part about the chocolate covered frozen
key lime pie on a stick... well - that was just too much. I think that
in penance, you should send each of us a share of it...

in cold, wet, windy Virginia... where much uglier weather is in store.
And we're the lucky ones.

Hello All! I've been following the digest the last several weeks but haven't been able to make lace since the
1st week of Nov. when I broke the ring finger on my right hand. Nasty spiral fracture, stainless steel pins just
recently removed & still can't close my hand. So I must enjoy your lacemaking activities instead of my own!
Please keep up the good work with juicy details!! I wanted to ask about the mangling & whether the process
could include the use of an Iron-Rite (sp?)?? I see them for sale (used) in thrift shops from time to time. My
granny had one when I was little & it was used to press all sorts of cotton & linen items on a
roller-type machine with a foot peddle to open the contraption. She always used a linen tablecloth--those were
the days! As to bobbin storage, maybe I'm too simplistic but, I use small wooden cigar boxes. Many are just the
"right" size for various types of bobbins & at $2-$3 each they are fun to collect & some are so
beautifully dec
or
ated they are works of art themselves. Susan, E-e-erie, PA, now licking my wounds on Grassy Key (MM58) where it was 83 & sunny today & chocolate covered frozen key lime pie on a stick is part of the therapy ;-)
