Was that something that went into the planning of the calendar? The earlier the date in December, the more the pattern is seen, the more the desire to have a go at making it? I'm afraid you overestimate our cunning. What with spreading the puzzle clues and patterns over the month, reserving the 'special days' for appropriate pictures, and trying to prevent colour repetitions and clashes, there's little scope for Machiavellian strategems. That said, we're glad the pattern intrigues you, hope you have an enjoyable Christmas and that 2007 will be kinder to you than 2006 has been.

[lace] 2006 Christmas Card Exchange website open
Hello one and all I am hoping that I have received all the cards to be added to the Arachne 2006 Christmas Card exchange pages and that each of you have received your cards by now. If you have not received your card, please hold off looking at the site until you do, as it can spoil the surprise if you know in advance what is coming. There are 27 cards spread over 4 pages - each photo has been resized using the free Microsoft download Image Resizer, (you can read more about that on the site) If you feel they need to be available at the original (usually much larger) size, please email me. I have tried to allow for slower dialup connections but it is a picture area so the first time you access the pages, they will be much slower to load on your screen. Once your browser has the photos in its cache, it will be faster :) Please take the time to read the first page you come to, it will make some of the rest more understandable :) Otherwise, please enjoy http://www.brandis.com.au/2006/index.html Jenny Brandis Kununurra, Western Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.brandis.com.au/craft/lace.html - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[lace] Christmas Greetings from Bev
Hi lace friends all As some of you know, there was quite a storm in the Pacific Northwest area, and more promised. Such a promise... Throughout the ordeal I was sustained by a pretty machine lace angel made by a friend. The ochre colour is unusual for Christmas, in my experience, but I liked it so much I made a bell motif from one of Brigitte Bellon's books, using a similar colour. The two lace pieces are part of my lace Christmas 'card' posted at my blog, url below. If you prefer, go right to the piccy at this addy: *http://tinyurl.com/yz4suj* The best of the season to everyone, may all you want for Christmas come true :D -- Bev with the power, phone and water back on in Sooke BC (on Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) blogging lace at www.looonglace.blogspot.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

May I take this forum to wish my Lacemaking friends all over the world the Best of Holiday Wishes whatever your beliefs may or may not be. May you prosper in 2007 and do make time for lace. As my Subject indicates, I want to bring to your attention the lacemaking retreat offered at Sweet Briar College in central Virginia, near Lynchburg, at the Eastern base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. What a delightful, beautiful setting for this retreat! It will be held July 15 through July 21, 2007. Sweet Briar has a beautiful campus with all the amenities one would expect to find at a private women's college and they have made available their facilities for this Retreat. The instructors engaged are well known and experts in their field. There is also a lace collection on Campus. Lacy Susan will vend. The cut-off date for registration is January 1, 2007, but I have heard that the cut-off will be changed if one contacts Clay Blackwell at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Clay will answer any questions you have and can also give you the URL for the brochure. Sorry I don't have that at hand right now. Happy Lacemaking, Betty Ann in Roanoke, Virginia USA who with be traveling with Friend Husband in RV-W/-Saturn-in-tow enroute to IOLI in Tulsa.

[lace] Re: Santa
Hi Charlotte and all Arachne, As I have had a number of requests for the Santa pattern, our guild webmistress is working on putting the pattern on our webpage as a present to you all. Either I or Susie Johnson will tell you when it is up. At the moment I get the title but page not found, so give it a while. I am off to France on Thursday for the holidays. We are renting a house so our families can come from England and we can visit with our DD who is teaching near Rouen, so I wish you all a Happy Christmas and Joyeux Noel.

Would it be possible to send me one also? The attachment was deleted by my security program.

[lace-chat] Fwd: The Old man and God
The Old Man and God An 80-year-old man goes for a physical. All of his tests come back with normal results. The doctor says, George, everything looks great. How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with God? George replies, God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight. So he's fixed it so when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, poof! The light goes on. When I'm done, poof! The light goes off. Wow, that's incredible, the doctor says. A little later in the day, the doctor calls George's wife. Ethel, he says, George is doing fine! But I had to call you because I'm in awe of his relationship with God. Is it true that he gets up during the night and poof! The light goes on in the bathroom, and when he's done, poof! The light goes off? Oh my God! Ethel exclaims. He's peeing in the refrigerator again! To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
