I have been asked which threads I think lacemakers would most like to have available. I know my choices, but they are possibly not yours! So;

Q1, If all sizes and all colours were available which fibre (silk, cotton, linen or rayon) would you be most likely to choose for
a, hankie edging
b, table mat/doiley
c, collar
d, wall hanging
e, cushion cover
f, baby dress trimming
g, pictorial piece to be framed
h, scarf

Q2, If a new range of coloured linen became available would you like it to be:
a, about 40 wraps/cm - fine enough for point ground
b, about 30 wraps/cm - similar thickness to DMC Special Dentelles 80 (tatting cotton)
c, about 22 wraps/cm - similar to most perle 12
d, about 14 wraps/cm - similar to most perle 8
e, about 11 wraps/cm - similar to most perle 5
f, thicker than any of these

These are answers to the list please, not an anonymous survey!
