[lace] The power of arachne, I hope

2011-07-08 Thread Laceandbits
I have great hopes that arachne will live up to its usual high standard as  
the world beater help line regarding lace issues.
 
I am shortly to teach for a week, and one of the students from the Bristol  
area has to collect her pillow and bobbins from a teacher in  Clevedon.  
Unfortunately she has made a mistake copying the phone number  and doesn't 
know the house number.
 
All the information we have is that the teacher is called Meryl (or maybe  
Meriel) and she lives on Kenn Road.
 
If anyone could help, please contact me off forum.  
 
Many thanks
Jacquie in Lincolnshire

[lace] Music and Lace

2011-07-08 Thread Nathalie
Dear all ,

Would there be someone among you who can see a connection between lace
with music?

Lace in the opera? Lace on conductors or composers?

Was lace important when people listened to music?

How was lace connected to music? Romantic? Status? What about the 19th
century? 20th century?

Who wore lace in connection to music?

Hope to hear from you. :-)
Nathalie

 I'm not sure about classically but I know cirque du soliel has employed
bobbin lace makers In the past and possibly still does for certain costumes

 On the other hand I do enjoy listening to music while lacing :-)

Hello Nathalie and everyone

I understand that David wears lace when he conducts - hopefully he'll
see this and write about it for you!

Nathalie,
 
Yes, although this may not be what you had in mind: the connection
I see between [bobbin] lace and music is the interweaving of threads/musical
lines to make something ornate, especially in the music of J.S.Bach, Vivaldi,
Albinoni, Gabrielli, etc., or the great pieces of polyphony such as by Thomas
Tallis.
 
Not sure what to make of other kinds of lace or other kinds of
music...

[lace] more lace on Kate?

2011-07-08 Thread hottleco
Hello All!  Just saw photos of the Calgary visit  did I see a lace yoke on a 
white with blue diamonds cowgirl shirt?  How about lace insertions on an all 
white version?  There are commercial entities that would kill for this kind of 
product placement!!  Perhaps lacemakers have found a new royal champion?  Still 
enjoying the lacy fashion show while licking my fingers from the food at the 
Panegyri Festival (Greek Orthodox Church).  Oompah!  Sincerely, Susan Hottle, 
Erie, PA USA

Hello Susan and everyone

The yoke does look lace-like doesn't it? The other has lace trim.
Both retail at - hm, GBP 500.00 plus, and they are from a
ready-to-wear, I don't imagine the lace is handmade even at that price
;)
We won't see very many around the local shopping mall... will we? but
you never know. Someone is probably producing knock-offs as I write.
Was there lace at the Greek festival, too?
