[lace] Lacemaking groups in the west of the UK

2013-09-04 Thread celia mulhearn
We are in the midst of househunting in Weston-Super-Mare and the Burnham on Sea 
areas of the UK and I was wondering if anyone knows of any Lace groups down 
this way. I am currently a member of Bromley Lacemakers in greater London area 
but feel it may be a little to far to travel to meetings. I am looking forward 
to any information you may have.
I did bring my lace to do whilst house hunting (trying my hand at a Flanders 
Lace edging) but have not had the time nor been awake long enough to make any 
lace.. Not sure if it's the house hunting or the country air that is 
wearing me out :-)
Best Wishes
Celia, currently in Weston but live in Plumstead near Greenwich Uk.

Does anyone have any recent contact information for the Cantium lacemakers
in Canterbury? There's nothing on their website.  Thanks,

Laurie

[lace] Lace websites

2013-09-04 Thread Ann-Marie Andersson
Hello All,



Some time ago there was a discussion here about how we all could contribute to
the list. I am so grateful for the lacemaking friends that I got through
Arachne and would like very much to do something in return.



The best I can think of is to share my list of favourite bobbin lace websites.
I already sent it to Laurie Waters and as she found it useful for her
Pinterest site maybe it would be interesting for others too. Many of the sites
are well known, but there are also some that may be new to you. The list is a
very simple Word document and includes 550 sites at the moment. You can use
the list in any way you like, all I want is for people to enjoy these sites as
much as I do. If you email me privately I will be happy to send it.



Best regards from a sunny Sweden

Ann-Marie

Fw: [lace] Lace websites

2013-09-04 Thread Sue
On this subject I was sure I had something in my hands recently that I 
thought I would never use or else had two, for the life of me I cant 
remember what it was, but when the thought comes back to me which it might, 
:-)   I will dig it out and raffle it.  We haven't had one in quite a while 
and I would rather give it away to someone else than throw it away or just 
keep it getting in the way.

[lace] more Piecework magazine info

2013-09-04 Thread hottleco
Hello All!  Thank you David for kindly posting about your iPad app for 
Piecework.  A friend recently sent me info about purchasing 66 back issues of 
Piecework for $65US.  Either digital download or CD.  Such a deal!  Usual 
disclaimers.  If a tech-savvy Arachnid will make a tiny url, that would be 
wonderful.  ;-)  Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA USA

Hi,

Does anyone have a pattern for a cross bookmark in Torchon Lace that they 
would be willing to share?

[lace] St Petersburg Russia lace exhibit

2013-09-04 Thread sa672c
Hello -- During August 9  to 18th I was in St. Petersburg Russia and saw at
their Ethnography Museum a marvelous exhibit of lace -- bobbin and needle.  I
was unable to obtain any information in English describing the display which
was quite large.  Can anyone please fill me in on the details of what this was
called and who the sponsors or suppliers of all the lace were.  Any
information would be greatly appreciated.  It was a breath taking  display to
'stumble' upon. We went back three times Thank you   Marion M

Hello Marion and everyone
It sounds like an inspiring exhibit. While I can't help you with details,
you could start here at the museum's website
http://eng.ethnomuseum.ru/
There is a contact info e-mail address via the link Visit the Museum.
