[lace] headside on fan edging - plait?
The web site http://www.cipka.sk/ shows a cheerful coloured edging - would be great on little girl's clothes. (I'm just back from 2 weeks visiting my twin granddaughters. They are seven months old but I am looking ahead g) The fan headside looks thicker than a twisted pair - possibly a plait? This would make a firmer edging. Is it traditional for this type of lace?

[lace] Re: Lace-tour
Hello Lacefriends, Sorry but I couldn't write my report earlier. Yesterday I thaught, it's too late. But then I read Noelene's mail so I do it, better late than never. Monday 19th July 2004 at 7.00 we started travelling west. The landscape was like the english garden-landscape. Shortly before Pilsen we went south through pine woods. First stop Klatovy called the gate to Bohemian Forest and the centre of carnations. There is a museum with lacemaking school. We had all five days long a male guide Jan and a female guide Verena which is from the lace-school in Praha. She tried to explain the lace things to Jan in czech and he explained us in english, but sometimes I didn't get what they want us to tell, Nevertheless they are both nice people. we learned very quick that there is nearly never the possibility to get a book or either postcards. And if you allow me to be honest I sometimes had the expression that the people in the museum couldn't explain their own laces. Here we found a little booklet in czech with a german summary. The first I saw that Barbara Uthmann came from Flandres to Erzgebirge, so my confidence in the text has gone.(b. U. was born in Erzgebirge). The text saysthat lacemaking was mentioned for the first time In Strazov na Sumave that Bohemian Forest are from 1725. And that in 19th cent. nearly in every house somebody made bobbin-lace. Than the ususal machine-made net and so on. But in 1896 they founded a lace-school which came some time later to the Zentrale Spitzenkurs in Vienna (you remember my report from Wiener- Neustadt?) at that time they belonged still to Kaiserlich Königliche Monarche in Vienna. The school survived the seperation from Vienna and is still in function. We saw some parts how the pupil learn making bobbin-lace as well as laces from some of the teachers and also works from today. Lunch in Prachatice, here as well as in Klatory are houses with this wonderful Sgraffiti-paintings on their walls, I put two pictures in my webshot-album. In former time the whole region was very rich because of the salt-trail. After Lunch we went to the small museum were also laces from the region and some modern works were to see. It was so crowded so I made a little city-tour alone. Back to the campus at 22.3o. I fall in my bed and hoped that nobody would sing or play ball that night, hopeless wish on a campus in summer time. Next morning, same time, same people but other direction - to the est. First place Letohrad, the museum with the national costumes. They stand in the rooms without glas around them, great. So we could study the laces, the embroidery. (Two of them are in my webshot-album). Back to the bus on the road again to Rychnov. In a part of a big farm they made a museum with everykrafts they had in former time. In some vitrines the had put things who didn't belong together so we were sometims puzzled. And in a small part is a Gallery for modern czech lace-art with works by Marie Sedlackova-Serbouskova and mariá Danielová. I have problems to tell you how their works were differently from the one we have still seen. I only remember I was impressed. In most museums we weren't allowed to take fotografes and they didn't have postcards so after a while everything was mixed in my head. And because it was so hot we had snowballs as dessert by the way the restaurant there could be in every big city in Europe or North-America. And now in the afternoon we arrived in Vamberk. First the exhibition of the Bienal of Czech Lace. Big lace-sculptores from the ceiling till the floor or along the walls, some a bit sophisticated but impressing. I met a lot of names I saw two years ago in the same place. In the Museum a young guy wanted to tell us about lacemaking but he started with Adam and Eve. But we managed to ask him special questions and got so some information. the laces they worked here were made with linnen, with wool but also with stinging nettle. The designs were given from generation to generatio and the names of the laces were given after the design but also after the prize or the purpose. They worked laces with prickings as well as Free-hand-lace. We saw some laces which were very familiar like the sun-lace. Most of the laces were sold by slovacian people but they brought them also to Silesia and other places in Europe. We looked at all the wonderful things, under them a 40 cm broad Austria-Spitze but couldn't do all time run away. The next days came later.

[lace] Online in Suriname at last / Tatted Doily Hardanger Pics
Gidday all, Finally after over 3 months of being unsubscribed and moving from South Africa to Suriname, with a month home in Australia on the way, all our furnishings including craft stuff and computer have now arrived and been unpacked/installed, and I am back in the Arachne loop. I missed you all! Life here is great, very relaxing and peaceful - lots of time for lacemaking so now I am back to working on Miss Channer's Mat after not having bobbins etc. at my disposal for so long. I did do some other handiwork - had to have something on the go or I'd go mad - and amongst other things made a tatted doily that I was quite pleased with, and a small hardanger mat. The hardanger was actually supposed to be square, but I used a scrap of linen found lying around at my mum's place and it wasn't 'til I'd done quite a bit that I realised the count of the linen was not equal in both directions! So, it just automatically came out rectangular - oh well, it didn't really matter. Anyway I have uploaded photos on the Webshots website if you are interested in having a look. http://www.webshots.com Username: Arachne2003 Password: honiton Michelle Long an Aussie living in Suriname and very very happy to have bobbins in her hands again (new email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] in case you still have my old one) Ian Chelle Long +597 0352505 - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace] help needed, please
To all the wonderful lace spiders - I have a question I picked up a booklet last year of lace patterns of animals, but I have no idea of how to make it, or where to start. I picked it up in Brugge at the Lace Museum. On the cover is a picture of an elephant (the reason I bought it) - the title is 10 Tropische Dieren, on the bottom is Martine Bruggeman (the author?). (I obviously have no idea what it says! :-P ) When I bought it I thought I probably had a book at home with some kind of hints or instructions of how to make this style of bobbin lace, but I don't. And since I really don't know what this style is called - I'm not sure what kind of instruction book to look for :-\ . The patterns are line drawings - with indications of half and whole stitches for the wider lines. I'm not exactly a beginner lace maker - but my experience has been in torchon, buckspoint, flanders, binche and dabbled in chantilly... all continuous lace styles - I'm not sure how to start this type of picture Can someone suggest a book to look for? or give me a hint as to how to start and progress on this? thanks! :-) Tonnie McBroom Phx, AZ, USA - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In order for the edge pair to be outermost at the pin, instead of the edge and workers meeting with CTCT and the worker going around the pin, they would have to use a turn stitch of some kind to trade places. That could be CTCTCTCT, or CTTC. The former would give a very short section of plait before and after the pin. Then just a Twist before the next pin when the whole thing would be repeated. Interesting effect on the outer edge of the fan!

Hi Jay and everyone Jay wrote: The fan headside looks thicker than a twisted pair - possibly a plait? This would make a firmer edging. Is it traditional for this type of lace? I can't tell if there is a plait or not, though I suspect there is. Many laces in N. and E. Europe have the plaiting at the headside and yes, I think it is for firmness (noticed this especially in the freehand laces in the book Nyytinki from Finland - that the laces from one island in particular all had the plaiting where the edge of the lace is the outside edge of a blouse - around the waist). cheers Bev in Sooke BC (west coast of Canada) where the heat wave has become a drizzle wave (and not too soon for the plants...) - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace] little BL b'fly from bits of thread
Hi everyone An effective little butterfly can be made with two leaves crossing and make two more leaves (basically an 'X'). Plait back to the centre and cut some threads longer for the antennae. You can make a butterfly with just 2 pair, start at the tip of one leaf, at the centre of the X do a TC to lock the threads with an extra tw to a pair to leave a bit of a hole for sewings then work another leaf, plait back to the centre (wrong side of b'fly), work the next leaf, etc. and end off the threads to leave a few strands for the bug's feelers. Experiment with more pairs to have plaits for the feelers, etc. Add in some sparkly blending filament maybe a few beads, cute glued to a greeting card ;) cheers Bev in Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[lace] another 2-pr. b'fly
Hi everyone It only just occurred to me the butterfly principle could be applied using plaits-and-picot - start in the centre, work out to the point of the first wing, and back, in a butterfly-wing sequence. Cute again! For that matter, with thread to use up on various bobbins, plait-and-picot doodles could be effected, on their own, or on existing laces. -- bye for now Bev in Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) Cdn. floral bobbins www.woodhavenbobbins.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [lace] help needed, please
I don't think there are fillings in the center. It's more like a line drawing, with the lace forming lines of different thickness. If someone can tell me how to upload pictures to the webshots folder, I will put a scanned picture up there so you can see it. Tonnie [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm a relative beginner but this sounds like braid or tape lace to me (the outlines) which have one worker pair and about 3-7 passive pairs (depending on the thickness of the edging.

Find a convenient join in the braid outline (could even me marked) and then set up for whole stitch, this is what I have been instructed to do.

Re: [lace] When does a book become rare?
Hi Jean - and Spider Sisters!! I think, Jean, that your daily contact with so many of us on the internet has led you to the mistaken assumption that lacemakers are a significant part of the population!! (VGB!) So, to put it another way, if this book is owned by every lacemaker in the world, it is still a relatively rare book. However, it is NOT owned by every lacemaker, and therefore is even more relatively rare! (sorry - that is horribly garbled...). IOW, to a person like the seller, this is exotic, incredibly esoteric stuff, and therefore worth a mint!!!

There's a copy of Gillian Dye's Beginning Bobbin Lace currently for sale on ebay under the title: 'BOBBIN LACE, bookmarks, butterflies, edgings RARE BOOK' I contacted the seller to ask why she's describing it as rare, when it's available through bookshops and through Amazon. (It's also available at GBP7.99 direct from Batsford, admittedly in paperback.) This is the (rather pompous I think) reply I got: Dear Sir/Madam, I am aware that the book is available through Amazon, though it has been in short supply for some time, and it can take two weeks or more to be received from that supplier. This book is a specialist volume, and you will not find it in the vast majority of high street shops, and nor is it easy to find in second-hand or antiquarian bookshops, unless you are very lucky - as is the case with most specialist non-fiction tomes. On a previous occasion when I listed this another copy of this book it generated much interest and bidding ended at GBP 11.50. For these reasons, I am aware that it is a comparatively rare book, which is just what I meant by what I stated in my title. I sincerely hope that this answers your question.

[lace] Plaits on the edge
On Aug 3, 2004, at 12:59, Alice Howell wrote (in response to Jay): The web site http://www.cipka.sk/ The fan headside looks thicker than a twisted pair - possibly a plait? Under my magnifying glass, it is really both. There is a twist in the middle between the pin sections. **However**, please note that the colored edge pair also makes the circle around the pin, so you have the continuous path of color along the outside edge. I have a feeling that there are *two* edge (yellow) pairs, plaited between the pins, and surrounding the pin with twists (two or three above the pin, one below the pin). And that the worker pair (white) is taken in and let out from that plait either by a CTCTCTCT, or by a CTTC, but pinless (or else with a temporary pin under, not between, both pairs); it seems that the workers oin the edge in the valleys, not at the peaks of the fan. After which exchange, the original two edge pairs recommence plaiting. Like Bev has said, plaiting at the edges is a common trick in Eastern European laces, and esp. the free-hand and peasant (coloured) ones; you can find it not only at the headside, but at the footside as well. It does strengthen the lace, and adds an extra dimension as well. This last trip, I saw a lot of two pair behaviour I have never seen before. My favourite new sightings were plaits crossing plaits in little arcs (at the headside) creating a loose frill and - usually, but not always - at the footside (both the loopykind and the straight kind), a funny little dance which goes like this: You have two passive pairs at the edge. The worker goes through them, in cloth stitch, to the pin. The worker does what a worker normally does (either twists around the pin or trades places with the worker-in-waiting), then goes back through those passive pairs in clothstitch. While the worker is busy elsewhere, between the pins, the two passive pairs at the edge either: CTCT, or: TCTCT. When the worker comes back towards the pin, they're back to being ordinary passives - mild as milk, butter wouldn't melt... :) The worker itself can be - but doesn't have to be - twsted before and after the passage through the passives. I absolutely *adore* the effect, and have been happily using a scaled-down version of it (don't twist the - single - passive edge pair at the pin, but do twist it between pins) in my latest project (from Cathy Belleville's Chrysanthemum Lace book), at the headside edge. Where it really looks delicious is at the turns, done in clothstitch and with a pivot pin at the centre. Ordinarily, you worry about the passivess pulling towards the centre and away from the headside, and spend a lot of effort tensioning them just so in order to make them stay close to the headside pins. But here, when the other passives get tensioned too hard and drift towards the centre, it only heightens the lacy efect (I do not twist the worker before she encounters the last passive, BTW)...

If I glue it together, will it be usable, Properly made necks are slender, and will break occasionally; it's a fact of life :) Necks can, also, break even under every-day conditions (while winding, for example); you've extended the life of your existing bobbins by housing them in a roll, but... Unless it's an antique/collectible bobbin, I'd ditch it :) If it's a hand-made, but modern one, you might notify the maker, and he/she might replace it, though I never liked to call on such promises, and let it go, or: cut the neck off, drill a hole in the body, stick a needle in it, and you have a divider pin. Worth doing if the body's pretty. or will it do bad things to the thread? The join's not likely to stay together long enough *to* do bad things to the thread... :) Unless you join it by bitting (drill a hole in both neck and body, stick a short piece of a pin/needle down both holes, push the broken pieces together along the metal core, glue *both*along the shaft and the break), there just isn't enough of a surface for a solid join. 9 times out of 10, it's not worth the trouble. If the bobbin has sentimental value (you got it from a friend or Secret Pal), you might want to glue it together, but don't use it; put it in a display case, or something that'll keep the join safe.
