Dear Lacemakers, I was trying to get into our archives this morning, and could not. Would someone else please test http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/index.html Then, I highlighted the address and tried that. It also failed! Thought I'd look to see if there are any angel patterns in our files of Christmas exchanges that might be suitable for Sue to use. Incidentally, I purchased two of the kneeling baby angels shown in Mark's blog at an International Organization of Lace salesroom years ago. So, someone was making them. You could have one, Sue, but I fear the thread would not match, as my angels are used on the angel tree each year and it will have discolored. The angel tree is up from December 1 to February 14. I find it helps me get through the holidays, which I spend alone. Some angels were made by friends, and it is comforting to have them keep me company. The book "New Designs in Honiton Lace" by Pat Perryman and Cynthia Voysey, has a small Madonna and Child on page 65 that might be suitable. The Madonna looks angelic. The pricking is 1 3/4" high x 7/8" wide, and seems about the size of the kneeling baby angel.

Does anyone know where I could find the pattern for this angel? Found it on a Google image search for "bobbin lace angel pattern". http://tat-man.net/blog/?p=1210 It's a link to Tat Man's site, calling it a Honiton angel, but it's a blog entry with no mention of the pattern's origin. My niece's baby was stillborn last week, and I'd like to make a lace angel for her.
