I don't think I have missed this on arachne, but I have recently been told that Pat Earnshaw passed away early in July. The Times death notice is here
http://announcements.thetimes.co.uk/obituaries/timesonline-uk/obituary.aspx?n=beryl-patricai-earnshaw&pid=158498395#fbLoggedOut I have several of her excellent books and use them regularly; I found them particularly invaluable when I was doing my Lace Guild 'Decorated Nets' Assessment last year. The only one I didn't get on with was her 'Lace Machines and Machine Laces' which I got out of the library, many years ago now, and tried to read in bed last thing at night. I think I renewed it twice, so I probably had it for a couple of months, but I never got past the first chapter as I kept dropping off to sleep after just a page or so. If I can find a second hand copy, perhaps I'll try again...... Jacquie in Lincolnshire. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
