Haha Jean.... I love the bit about the only thing you need...
Reminds me of the start of my daughters shoe fetish.... 3 years old
and saw red leather fur lined boots in a local shop. The conversation
went along the lines of "I want those boots"... "I want never gets..."
says I.
madam waited till Grandma came.... "Can we go to shops Grandma?", of
course Grandma says yes... Madam shows Grandma the boots "Grandma I
NEED those boots to keep my toes nice and warm", guess who bought the
boots.... (BTW, Kyra is now 25 and owns around 200 pairs of boots or
shoes...)
Now are you sure you got the Need and Want the right way round???

One of the problems is that once you've got your basic pillow,
sufficient bobbins and (usually too many) books (for you to complete
everything in it you want to), really the only thing you NEED is
thread. And that won't keep a supplier in business.
They rely, not only on newbies, but those of us who already have the
basic supplies WANTING extra pillows, patterns, books, bobbins and
other equipment ......
The there's the question are there sufficient young people taking up
the craft and buying the supplies to replace those of us in our
dotage who will eventually give up because we can no longer cope or
go to join other lacemakers on a cloud.
