Re: [lace] Burano Needle Lace in Hallmark movie!
Here is an article I found that might help those who want to watch the next episodes but do not have Hallmark Movies access. This article provides a short list of streaming services that carry the Hallmark channel and most offer a free trial period. You could subscribe to one for free for a week then cancel and try a different service for the week of the third episode. Hope it is helpful. Btw, if your tv is not able to access the streaming services, you can watch them on your computer. There may be other ways to access The Hallmark Channel via the internet but this article seems to list most of the free options. Also ask your local librarian if they subscribe to any digital resources that might allow you to watch the next two episodes. Some libraries do offer in library movie viewing through their library resources.

Re: [lace] Flickr photos for Arachne
Sue, I very much enjoy the photos. If the corporate decides to retain this account, I will pledge $25 for the upcoming renewal.

Re: [lace] Ricamo Firenze 40
Susan, This thread is designed for machine embroidery. It is 40 weight rayon. There are numerous options for substitution. If you have a Joann's store nearby, they should have 40weight rayon thread available. If you do not have a Joann's do a search for sewing machine dealers. Most are also selling embroidery machines and threads.

Re: [lace] Battenburg type lace
Sue, thank you for sharing this information. It's a lovely design. Is there perhaps a picture of the original lace that Mary Corbet sourced for this reinterpretation?

Re: [lace] Lace, Virtual lace classes
Karen, You described using brightly colored threads for your beginners so that you can reference which pair of bobbins to address. A technique I used when I was working a very complex pattern was to trace the pathways of my pattern using colored pencils. Then I placed color matched elastics onto the corresponding bobbins. I found it very easy to determine which bobbin pairs were associated with each portion of my pattern. I also had glass head pins in matching colors when I needed to use dividers.

Re: [lace] lace, Virtual lace classes
Antje, MEET is a Google product and some people will refuse to allow Google products on their phones or computers for security reasons. MEET would have to be downloaded and installed to their computer just like any other meeting software. We use ZOOM at all of our organizations. Both products are free to download and use. For the host/teacher Zoom limits free meetings in meeting length, about 40 minutes each session, but you can schedule several 40 minute meetings sequentially. A paid account (150$ US per year) allows unlimited class time per session. Deborah > On Sep 28, 2020, at 4:41 AM, AGlez wrote: > > Thank you very much Karen for sharing your experience.
