[lace] Missing archives

2014-12-01 Thread Louise Bailey
Jeri,

The original archives were saved on an FTP server run by Liz at Arachne.com.
Avital set up a backup archive with maillists.org in mid 2003 when, I think,
she took over as main administrator for the lists ( hurray for Avital!). I
don't know when the FTP server was turned off - the landing page for the list
is there but you can no longer get into the ftp pages. So that is why the pre
2003 messages are missing. I don't know if the FTp archive still exists or can
be reconstructed.  Sadly archive.org don't save private maillists like ours. I
do have digests for lace (but not lace chat) going back to ~2000, if that
helps; I lost earlier messages with a platform migration from Sun to Mac then
Win PC ... I remember some immensely helpful discussions on leaves, tensioning
etc that helped me when I first started out making lace.

Louise

Is it just me or has anyone received this quarters newsletter from the Lace
Society? I received the one from the Lace Guild ages ago and usually the
society follows shortly after.

Re: [lace] Lace Guild website Advent Calendar

2014-12-01 Thread Sue
Thank you Jean and David as ever.   Now it feels a bit like christmas.  I 
have been thinking christmas for too long and now it is this close it 
doesn't feel quite real.  Absurd I know, but thats my poor brain, LOL. 
Our christmas will be early anyway as our daughter will visit and go again 
so now I am in full christmas run up mode, but I do love to peek at the 
calendar every day.
I sent off my quilt advent to our step great granddaughter wondering if as a 
modern child she would love it or not be bothered because it doesn't do 
anything, but all is well and she loves it.   It had taken me way too long 
so I am pleased to get it out of the house at last before she got too old to 
enjoy it, LOL.

Dorset UK, slightly damp and dull this morning

The Lace Guild's website will once again be mounting its Advent Calendar at 
http://www.laceguild.org/guild/calendar.html


Although this works well on tablets as well as on standard computers, 24 
windows are something of a squeeze on a smartphone. So this year we have 
prepared a phone version of the calendar which you can find at 
http://www.laceguild.org/phonecal.html



We have tested the site on all iPhones from 3G to 6+, and on several android 
phones and one Windows phone. As long as you have a recent browser the 
calendar should work. (We had trouble on an HTC phone until we downloaded a 
Chrome browser.)If you have any problems accessing the calendar please let 
us know.

Enjoy opening a window every day until Christmas, then
enter the competition.

Good luck,
