Back then, my DH wanted to update my computer experience so he set up a computer just for me. He sat me down and told me "type in something". I typed Bobbin Lace. Arachne was one of the first things to come up. I checked it out, subscribed, and am still here. I was on the Digest to start with because I could use the computer limited times. It came over our business phone line so I could use it early mornings or evenings. After I got a phone line of my own and the computer was changed to it, I signed up for the main Lace List to get the emails more promptly. Sometimes I post, and sometimes I'm quiet. It's been fun 'meeting' people on the list, and then sometimes meeting them in person. I've learned many things about lace, and hope I helped a few beginners when they had a problem. On another subject --I have three students who are so enthusiastic that I am having to hustle to keep ahead of them. The third month they all wanted second pillows. They work ahead in the book between classes so I never know in advance how far each has gotten. One has requested to learn Russian for her next lace. To top off these interesting class sessions, we meet in a home and they feed me lunch before the lessons. After the lessons they send me home sometimes with eggs (they have chickens) and last time included a couple bottles of wine. The DH of one of them makes ice wines. Yum.Â
