Oops! Our birthday is boldly written in my calendars for several years as being April 12. I put the wrong month in the subject line. So sorry. We could celebrate again in June!

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
I have had a gentle reminder from her about trimming posts as well.But it was in my early days, I have only been on the list for a couple of years. In my defence, I didn't really know that I should trim posts. Happy Anniversary Arachne.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Dear All, I think that this summs up everything that is wonderful about Arachne. I've been off line for a couple days but have come back to masses of topics and chat that I have been looking forward to reading. I joined Arachne very, very early in it's history and although I have changed email address, smail address and even my surname, it seems that many things in life are transient but Arachne is for life.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
You're welcome! I'm happy to help. I can't even recall when I joined Arachne but I think it was when my son was a baby because I used disposable diapers as the skirt for my first home-made lace pillow.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
P.S. My son is almost 18, so I've probably been on the list for about 16 or 17 years. And just to keep you on the straight and narrow Please remember to trim your posts! Try not to have multiple footers at the bottom. ;-) I'll overlook two footers, but if you start making a habit of leaving three footers and I notice, you will get a gentle reminder from me!

Fw: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Yes Happy Birthday to all and many thanks for all the amazing topics that come through the list. As mentioned having lace chat is also is an excellent feature but being able to just email one person instead of the list is an excellent feature. The help from many individuals has been wonderful, so thank you one and all. An internet based craft site seemed an odd concept, but I have never been sorry I joined. Sue T Dorset UK Thank you to all who make this work. This group is an invaluable resource for all, and I mean ALL sorts of information on lace. Don't know what I would do without it. But it is so much more. I've been participating for less than two years, but many as individuals and Arachne as a whole are my friends. And you find out so much more than just lace. I have a better idea of the Australian Outback. I know a lot more than I ever thought I'd want to about the differences between British and American copyright laws. And my morning coffee is not complete without Arachne. Thanks to all who contribute, and may I, who perhaps has no right, invite those many who 'lurk' to speak up, even if it's only to say, Yeah, what she said. Truly, it doesn't hurt.

[lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Hi all, As a relative newby to Arachne I would like to add my thanks and my admiration to Avital as well as everyone else involved. After more years than I care to remember of lace making and teaching I am still learning an enormous amount from all that take part. Questions I had not even thought to ask as well as answers.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Many thanks to Liz for starting Arachne. I found it when it was just one year old. It has had a big part in expanding my education about lace and lacemaking. It even led me to travel to England for the Arachne 98 Conference. It's great to have friends all around the world. And thank you to Avital for keeping us in order.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Golly! I remember the Arachne Conference... it was shortly after I joined Arachne! Now wouldn't it be just wonderful if someone could organize another one in Europe! I've enjoyed meeting other Spiders at IOLI conventions, but going to Europe to meet Spiders would be great fun!! Folks in the UK could organize sightseeing on certain days, then folks in Finland, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Spain, Italy... etc., etc., on following days!! Can you imagine hundreds of lacemakers migrating across Europe in search of lace!! Clay On 4/13/2011 1:32 PM, lacel...@frontier.com wrote: Many thanks to Liz for starting Arachne.

Re: [lace] Lace@Arachne's Birthday
Hi, I too have been with Arachne since the early days, August, 1996, just after the OIDFA meeting in Finland. I lurk with occasional input but would like to say a big thank you to those who give freely of their time and knowledge to others especially Liz and Avital for their continual input. It will be nice to have Tamara back with her very interesting input - we've missed you. I didn't make the Arachne Confrence in Nottingham but will certainly be here in Adelaide working towards the OIDFA Conference here in July, 2014. Maybe lots of Arachne members might like to join us for a wonderful lacey time? :-) Cheers, Shirley T. - in coolish Adelaide for April. On 14/04/2011 3:39 AM, Clay Blackwell wrote: Golly!
