Re: [lace] David's work in Lace Mag.

2008-08-02 Thread David in Ballarat

Dear Devon,


I have a question about David's work in Lace. What is the story behind the
eagle pattern. Where did you get the pattern, or did you make it yourself?  I
know of a piece similar this (a border) and it is supposed to 
have  historical

US connections, but perhaps that story is untrue.


I designed that doily from the border you've seen. Don't ask me to do 
it again please :)

[lace] Exhibition

2008-08-02 Thread Jane Partridge
On Friday night I had had an invite to go to the private viewing of the
Men Only exhibition at The Beetroot Tree (www.thebeetroottree.com)
which is a gallery at Draycott, in Derbyshire (not far from Long Eaton,
and Junction 25 of the M1, for those in the UK). One of the four artists
is Urh Sobocan (there is a saucer-shaped accent over the c), from
Slovenia, who designs lace which his grandmother then makes up. The
designs in the exhibition are based on his grandfather's WW2 experience,
very similar to (but not quite as intricate as) the War Lace design that
was featured in the centre of Lace several years ago - and now at long
last I can see how that design could be made! The other three artists
have used various media and stitched textiles, and all complement each
other. Some of the pieces in the exhibition are pictured at
http://trendz.pl/urh-sobo-an-sztuka-nowej-europy  - though it will
possibly need a translation (?Tamara, can you) if anyone wants to know
about his background, the pictures speak for themselves. Seeing the
actual lace was well worth making the journey for, as was being able to
meet the artists and speak to them (Urh speaks fluent English) about the
techniques used.
