RE: [lace] Lace in East Canada?
Thanks to all who replied to my query. Unfortunately, the Mail administrator returned the e-mails I sent to the contacts, listed in the USA and Canadian lace groups site. I will search telephone books when I get geographically closer. Jay in Sydney - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] judging lace
Hello Everybody, Having been twice a judge I can't see any problem touching the lace pieces. First you look mostly with your eyes, second you will wash your hands before don't having rings standing out on them and when you must take the lace into your hand you do it very carefully. One could let the lace flip from one paper to another without using fingers and other tricks. There will be only pencils on the table for notices. In my opinion people judging lace knew how to handle them.

[lace] Oya, Woven Lace scissors to die for
Hello All! What a fun time at the Pittsburgh Folk Festival yesterday! The Pittsburgh Lace Group put on a nice display as a member I sat in on the festivities. Amy brought her tree covered with lace Easter eggs, plus lots of samples of her work her roller pillow. Dewi, Margot I brought various projects explained our work to many visitors. I was pleased that so many took turns at the try it pillow--several inches were added to the ugly bandage! It will be cut off the pillow at the end of the season be used as a garland on the PLG Christmas tree. Lots of literature was distributed a lady from Lithuania one from Ukraine hope to visit us again on a regular meeting night. During the lunch break, I took a tour of the booths found some students from Turkey selling Oya other handcrafted items. I posted a photo on webshots of the adorable cherries that I purchased. Then at the Scotland booth, I found a lady making woven lace on a loom. Very interesting stuff: she had woven a huge sampler as well as decorating her nationality costume with pieces of her work. Note to self--take a camera next year! Of course the food/drink, music entertainment were a blast as well. I wanted to share some scissor eye candy I saw online at the French Needle. Usual disclaimers! Lisa has posted up some new ones made in Nogent--exquisite handles with price tags to match, moan. Still free to peek though! Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA where we've had monsoons all day, the rain gauge is full--over 6 inches today Walnut Creek near our home looks like chocolate milk with white cap waves - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

The competitors have such huge opinions of themselves that it's very funny to watch.

'I dunno,' replied his team leader. And yet, they're but lowly apprentices in the high self-esteem stakes. The host of the show (US version) is now talking about, possibly, running for the office of the US President. The mind boggles.
