Re: [lace] Retirement

2014-11-09 Thread J-D Hammett
Hi Noelene and fellow Arachnids,


This lovelypoem is soo true. In retirement one seems to have less time for 
one’s craft than ever. What happens I think is all the other people 
thinking;- “We can ask her/him to do so and so as they are retired and have 
plenty of time on their hands.” As we are loath to say no, I want some time 
to do the things I enjoy we end up working harder than ever :-D.


Power to your lace pillow and may it help us to say NO to things that can be 
done by others???


Happy lace making, Joepie in East Sussex, UK.

 









From: Noelene Lafferty






Retirement.

They all promised me
when retirement was due,
I'd be doing so much with my lace.

………………………
As the days now fly by
I seem to do LESS
Just where did I find time in the past!

That is beautiful.  It appears to be Sterling Filigree (wires are twisted and
rolled into a flat 'ribbon' before forming the individual sections) and a Gold
Framework.  A very delicate process, I wish I had one.

If you scroll down a bit to where there is a collection of pictures, 
including the lace pillow, you will see the jewelry presentation of a 
lacemaker, pillow on her lap.

Re: [lace] lace jewelry the sales website

2014-11-09 Thread Lyn Bailey
This jewelry was designed by a jeweler in Brussels who went into a museum 
and saw some Duchesse lace and was inspired.  She has many lace related 
pieces.  The French pillow Lorelei posted is probably one of the more 
expensive pieces, but some of them are actually somewhat affordable.  Less 
than some lace books that are for sale.

[lace] 2015 IOLI convention class list

2014-11-09 Thread Anita Hansen
Good news everyone!  The classes for the 2015 IOLI convention are now posted on 
the IOLI website http://www.internationalorganizationoflace.org/ .  The full 
information for the convention will be coming later.  But it is fun to have an 
early idea for what classes are available.  I know what will be going on my 
registration form!  I think we have a wonderful range of techniques from which 
to choose!  

Please keep in mind that our schedule will be shifted one day from tthe 
traditional Sunday-Friday.  Registration and the opening banquet will be on 
MONDAY July 27.  Classes will be on Tues, Wed, Friday  Saturday.  Mid-week 
tours and public day will on Thursday.  The closing banquet will be Saturday 
August 1.  Please be sure to make your travel arrangements accordingly! 

The members of the Doris Southard Lace Guild are looking forward to welcoming 
you all to Lace on the Prairie in Coralville, Iowa. Harvest time is well 
under way now and soon the fields will be blanked in snow.  But next summer the 
corn will be once again green and tall in fields that were once long ago 
covered with tall prairie grass. And if you look carefully, you may also spot 
some Queen Anne's lace growing along the roadsides.

Is this the same Belgian jeweler who has come to IOLI convention a few times?  
Gorgeous fillagree work.  The lacemaker on the website looks familiar.
