My apologies, Alex. I just grabbed the book off the shelf - and Cassells is written in Big letters, rather than your name. (Bad!).Memo to self, slow down, and read the page properly first!!! BTW - I hope your wrist is fully healed, now, from the Portland fall.
Regards from Liz in Melbourne, Oz. Thank you Liz. Just over a year ago I had the dictionary reprinted with the name 'Salex Illustrated Dictionary of Lacemaking', as the Cassells edition had been out of date for some years, and at the same time I updated it and it includes more tatting terms. One of our best tatters, Ruth Baker, who belongs to my local lace group agreed to work on it with me. We had a lot of fun. She would introduce me to a new technique. I would go away, make it, write about it and draw the diagrams. Ruth would look through and try to follow my instructions and tell me where they missed the point and I would revise them - as many times as was needed to get a satisfactory entry. I would like to take this chance to thank her yet again.. Thank you to all who have sent me best wishes for my recovery, my wrist is now healed and functioning pretty well, unless I do something silly like clean the oven which I did before Christmas - bad mistake, but it's over that as well now.
