Re: [lace] Old question about old tree pattern
hello spiders In case anyone is interested, I have a redrafted version with a less complex route for the trunk, another version has a more squeezed shape. Somewhere I've seen a smaller version with a variation on the fans, but I didn't save the link. Some examples to work with colour: http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/groene-hart/plakboek/03_20jaar/index.htm look also on the left under "het bos" (the wood) Jo I had saved this pattern in a Word file. So if you can open Word documents here it is. I know this was asked in the past, and I've tried the archives, but I'm wondering if anyone has a copy of the free Old Tree pattern by Lenka. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace] Catalan Lace Day 2008(was RE: lace-digest V2007 #148)
Karen wrote> HI Karen, This is news to me and I live in Catalunya. I have heard nothing about the annual lace day not being held next year but will try to find out. I expect Carolina will know something about it and might respond to the list on the subject. The Catalan Government is just that, a Government and not the local council. Catalunya has an autonomous government, with it's own laws and police force, amongst other things peculiar to Catalunya. Quite a lot different to a Local Council and the powers that a local council has. I might be wrong but as far as I know the Catalan government doesn't organise the event it is organised between the Association of Lacemakers of Catalunya and the Town Council of the town which has agreed to hold the event. It may be that the Catalan Government helps with something towards the cost but I haven't heard that it does this. The town holding the event bears the large part of the cost I believe, with those participants who are not members of the Assoc. of Lacemakers of Catalunya paying a few euros each to attend. Members of the Assoc. do not pay as they have already paid their subs. to the Association for the year and the Assoc., contributes something towards the cost out of it's fund, I believe. If it has been decided not to hold the event then it won't be anything to do with the Catalan Government but more likely that no town has put it's name forward to hold the event next year. It is an expensive event to put on for any town and wherever it is held there needs to be a lot of space to seat everyone as you can imagine. If it not held next year it does not necessarily mean it will never be held again, it could be that a town will agree to hold it in 2009, you never can tell. Fingers crossed something will happen next year.It happened once before that no town had come forward saying it was prepared to hold the event, then a town unexpectedly stepped into the gap and held it at the last minute. What a pity you didn't write to me about wanting to come to the event this past April, we had spare seats on our table and could have squeezed you into one of them. You could have come just as a spectator, as Jane knows it is a sight to see. You could have browsed the suppliers stalls, we usually have about 30, sometimes up to 50, suppliers stands which come from all over Spain and a few from Belgium and France too. I will try to find out if it "is" to be held next year and if it is what the likely place will be and let you know. Unless Carolina posts something in the meantime. So don't give up hope of attending our lace day just yet. Regards Jenny DeAngelis.

The background image is big (for a web page, 352Kb) but the other images are small, around 20Kb. More likely to be your browser taking time to display because of all the validation errors. Brenda I wonder if it is simply taking a long time to load.

Re: [lace] German lace site 2
Hello Jean To which my reply is "What little pictures?" The arrow stays an arrow except on the five blocked links on the lefthand side. Yes, I do have pictures showing on all other sites. I am using Windows XP on a high spec Sony laptop with automatic Windows and Sony updates. I've looked at the site using all the Mac browsers I have (Safari, Netscape, IE, Opera, Firefox, iCab, Mozilla, Camino and Sunrise; they all work fine (the only one which doesn't is Amaya which is a bit odd anyway). Assuming you've gone from http://www.forum-alte-spitze.de/ and clicked on the USA flag to go to http://www.forum-alte-spitze.de/FAS_Hauptseite_e.html you should see white lace on a black background 'Forum (logo) alt Spitze' in blue with some cream lace hanging from the logo. White on blue navigation boxes to the left (hand curser which tells you there are links to other pages) below that a b&w picture with the yellow words 'outlook/news' seven other b&w pictures scattered over the page with white writing below each. When you put your curser over any of the b&w pictures they become coloured and the curser changes to a hand, again to tell you that it's pointing to a linked page. I've run the page through the W3C validator and it came back with 76 errors - the first of which was the lack of a doctype declaration which can cause a lot of problems. There is also a lot of JavaScript but the script type isn't defined, so that could be the problem. The page appears to have been put together using Adobe GoLive and has a lot of proprietary stuff in there which doesn't validate, so another possible reason why your browser doesn't like it. Do you have any browsers other than IE7 installed on your PC? It's always worth having at least one other browser there just for occasions like this when the one of your choice doesn't like a particular website.

Re: [lace] Binche sampler 'kompakt'
Just looking at the picture of the front cover, because it is a 'sampler' its use is more in the making of it as a learning tool, rather than making a piece of lace to use, such as a mat on a table. Then as Robin pointed out, it is a 'spiral square' rather a unique artwork there. We could use hidden threads or even glue to fix it in place on a board :) On 6/30/07, Jo Falkink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > This compact Binche sampler is surely one for my wisch list.

[lace] Male Lacemakers/Contemporary lacemakers
Calling all male lacemakers. I thought it would be great to demonstrate that male lacemakers are alive and producing great lace. On the website that I am currently developing I have links to the male lacemakers that I have found on the net. Not everyone wants to develop their own website. So I thought I would publish some pages which showcase male lacemakers and their lace. If you would like to be included or know of someone please send me some pictures of your lace along with some biog details - perhaps including why you make lace. Apologies to you lacemakers who are excluded due to the fact that you are of the fairer sex but I would call this as positive discrimination Contemporary Lacemakers: I also want to link to other contemporary lace makers out there. Anyone wanting to link please email me.
