[lace] Springett videos

2007-12-24 Thread Brenda Paternoster

Dear Spiders

Does anyone, in UK, know if the lace videos made by Christine Springett 
a few years ago are still available, and if so, from where?


Merry Christmas

[lace] Christmas cards

2007-12-24 Thread Brenda Paternoster
I have received a lovely card from Merlene in Denver, it contains a 
circular ornament in gold and white, the same colours as all my other 
tree ornaments so it will come off the card and be used each year on 
the tree.  Thank you Merlene.


I have just sent Jenny a scan of the pattern I used for my card to 
Merlene.


Merry Christmas to all

[lace] Christmas wishes

2007-12-24 Thread Sue
I would like to wish all my fellow lacemakers a very happy Christmas and
a happy and healthy new year, I will be spending Christmas Day with
number three son and his wife and parents and will be having the rest of
the family to my house for Boxing Day.
 
The exchange cards as usual are beautiful and are all food for thought
for next year, unfortunately I have not received a return card from my
exchange partner I hope it has not got lost in the post.
 
Happy Christmas

[lace] Lace making?

2007-12-24 Thread Jane Viking Swanson
Hi All,  And Happy Holidays!!  I know some of us are available, either not
celebrating Christmas or having quiet holidays.  DH and I will be home and
it will be quiet and we're happy about that.

Lacy news is that I made Battenberg squares about 5 by 5 (13cm x 13cm) and
put them in plexiglass (plastic) trivets for gifts for a few people.  They
looked quite nice though it took me a while to get the finishing done.  A
friend co-owns a frame shop and he cut me a beautiful piece of mat board
covered by Ultra Suede.  I couldn't close the frame on it so I cut it
smaller and still couldn't close the frame.  I ended up using some fabric
instead, then I could get the back to close!  The trivets aren't spectacular
but they look pretty good and made nice gifts for 4 couples!  Don't know if
they will be appreciated or not VBG.  It was fun to use different stitches
on the four lace pieces and see how that worked.  Some were quite
successful!

Any other lace gifts made?  The Battenberg took me 2 or 3 hours each so it
was quite enjoyable.  I know BL and NL take much more time!  Actually I made
small NL flowers a few years ago for gifts.  I forced everyone to be
appreciative then VBG.

Love to you all, Jane in Vermont, USA where it was over freezing and some of
the snow has melted, it will still be a very white Christmas.

[lace] Most recent update of card exchange patterns

2007-12-24 Thread Jenny Brandis
This year has been a wonderful lace making year with the Card Exchange
Pattern Book growing to 10 pages
 
Patterns have been provided by:
Janice Blair came up with a reindeer
Elizabeth Atkinson made Torchon circles
Daphne Martin presented us with a  bauble
Sue Clothiers designed a snowman and his poem
Jeanette Fischer made a poinsettia with leaves
Ilske Thomsen has a wonderful double star pattern
And Brenda Paternoster gave us freeform Torchon lace
 
All of these patterns are available on the free PDF download
www.brandis.com.au/2007/downloads/patterns.pdf but please remember that the
file size is now over 2MB and will take a while if you are not on broadband
internet. 
 
Is there a call for me to do each pattern in its own PDF? That would make
the individual downloads much smaller but it would mean having to download a
total of 7 files.
 
I would like to express the appreciation of all lacemakers to these generous
ladies, thank you for sharing.

Happy Christmas, everyone!

I've wrapped all the presents, DD1 has come to stay with DH  me for a
couple of days, we're all three going to DD2's (DSIL's) for Christmas Day,
and I think I've finally got ahead of myself ... or at least caught up. G

I wish you all everything you wish for yourselves, and enough health and
happiness to enjoy it.

Love to all,
Margery.
