I really liked the giant wrought iron "lace" tea pot.

[lace] macrame

2012-10-06 Thread Lorelei Halley
I just came across some new macramé.  I had no idea this kind of work was
possible in that technique.

Francis,

That's very kind of you to offer. I confess that I don't recall your
offering space on your site or my saying that Flickr was better (the
pro Flickr account is quite good but the free account is very
limited). We could discuss this off-list.

Regards,

Avital

Fw: [lace] Lace Clock

2012-10-06 Thread Sue
Lorelei suggested this flexible fabric and I was able to say that we have a 
roll of that in our loft, so we will see if it will work for this clock. 
We cant try it this weekend as we left the clock to see if the otehr company 
could quote for the stiffer stuff they use for signs.
In a perfect world I would much prefer to have domed glass or plastic which 
would allow the lace and the clock hands to be encased but in this case it 
cant happen, so I hope to make the best of things and hope this works out 
ok.   Yes I understand that lace or other fabrics would survive better with 
an air gap etc but I need to be content with the best I can achieve under 
the circumstances. Thank you for your help folks.   I dont feel quite as bad 
now.

You might try fabric stores.  They sometimes have fairly thick, flexible 
acrylic on bolts, like fabric.  People use it to make rain coats, 
waterproof sacks, etc.  The stuff can be sewn through with a sewing 
machine and cut by hand with scissors.

Lorelei


As some of you may know I have been working on a piece of circular lace 
to go into my clock and am about a week away from finishing it.  I got 
excited and got the clock down again trying to decide what cloth or paper 
colour to put behind the lace on completion to show it to its best 
advantage. I took it out of its sealed plastic covering for the first 
time since buying it in June at the lace day and imagine my horror to 
find it didn't have glass to cover my lace.
