Dear Friends,
>Regardless of how many passes you're getting now, may I suggest you
photocopy onto card stock?
This suggestion has been put to me a number of times and so I'd
better confront it. There are a number of reasons why Iwill never
copy on to card stock and these include:
- I could not stand to have to pre-prick
- I get enough calluses and holes in my finger tips pushing thousands
of pins through paper - let alone card.
- when I decide to make a piece of lace, I want to do it right NOW,
and my paper prickings covered in plastic can be ready to work in
only a couple of minutes.
- of all the hundreds of pieces of lace I've made, both large and
small, I have never had the need
- now that I've learned just how many times I can use a paper
pricking before it disintegrates, I am still quite content. (I rarely
make a piece twice anyway)
That'll do for me
