[lace] Charlie Brown Christmas tree
Hello All! It was an interesting week--with cataract surgery & a near heart attack over Digital Archives, you might think I would be resting & eating bonbons. No--I've been making one-eyed lace! I had promised myself (& Allie M) that I would practice my limited Idrija skills except life intervened last winter. So I seized the day, dug out my bolster & tried a little tree pattern that Allie suggested. It is now finished & posted to Flickr in spite of its many flaws. By the time I realized that I had made an error on the first loop, I was on the next row of tape so decided to improvise rather than unlace. That just compounded the mistake so by the time I came to the last loop, the multiplicity of errors skewed the lace. It is also very difficult to make sewings with impaired depth perception! Long story short, by the time I was done, I was laughing & thinking of Charlie Brown. Good grief!

[lace-chat] Selling my lace bobbins :(
After not making bobbin lace for over 15 years [due to osteo-arthritis] and 4 house moves later, I've started sorting through my 500+ lace bobbins that I collected over the years from various places - both home and overseas, with a view to giving other lacemakers the chance to enjoy them. I've begun listing them on eBid.co.uk, but it's going to be a long job ! Please email me for a direct link as I don't think I can post it here. Could someone also forward my post to Lace as I'm not on that list.

[lace] Bobbin book
Hi Brian Congratulations. I know how you feel, my books take at least 6 years each to write and yours has been a lifetimes work. Thank you for making it available to everyone, I will be one of the first to download and I will be printing it out in full colour. While I sell books when there are sufficient sales to make it worth while, I think books that are out of print because no one will publish them should be made available free. The Arizona free library is a wonderful resource. Knowledge is wonderful and should be made available not be kept secret when it no longer generates an income. Blow the dust, let,s make lace Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachne.modera...@gmail.com.
