[lace] Christmas Exchange

[lackam]

 Good afternoon arachnids,
?
Being as it is now Dec 6th, I am hoping that the reason I have not received
notices of cards being mailed is because everyone has forgotten to email
me?and not because everyone is running late this year. Please, if you have
mailed your card, email me and let me know. If not, let me know also so I can
keep track. And do not forget to email a picture to either me or
je...@brandis.com.au.
?
Thanks everyone,

[lace] Napoleonic POWs and lace making.

[Brian Lemin]

I am just researching in preparation for writing and article on the recent
find of a “Nelson” Bobbin which was sold on ebay with the  claim that it
was made the Napoleonic POWs in England.  (A claim, which at this point in my
research, seems to be quite reasonable)

I came across this statement which was new to me,  as I am very “one eyed”
(excuse the pun) about my research being “bobbins only” and lace barely
gets a look in! [sorry]

Here it is: “ There was even an instance where the officers became far too
successful in business, whereby they were banned from lace making, as it was
affecting the local trade!”

To read the full article go to
http://www.mqmagazine.co.uk/issue-16/p-34.php

If anyone has a special interest in the Napoleonic POWs, their creative
artifacts and indeed about lace which they were involved in, I would be
pleased to hear from them

Brian.

PS Was any of our members the purchaser of this bobbin?  I would like to ask
them a few questions.  The seller gave me all his pictures and permission to
use them, but I have a couple of queries.
