Replies needed in the next couple of days.

Sorry to hear of Marion’s passing.
Oh Dear! another lacemaker up  on that cloud now. It is getting to be too full
up there, so I hope everyone will stay down here for a lot longer!

I have received 2 Lace Magazines in the last 2 days – Wonderful!!
The first to arrive, yesterday, was the IOLI Bulletin, and today the Postie
brought me the UK Lace magazine. – so I have some good reading to do
tonight!!

I must put my creative juices to work, and see if I can come up with an entry
for next year’s IOLI convention. We are hoping to be able to go, - and are
tentatively planning the trip.
Yes, I know.. Last year was our Last trip – but so was the year before
that  Fingers crossed for one more visit!!!

Regards from Liz. In Melbourne, Oz.

[lace] Lace Magazines

2016-10-14 Thread Elizabeth Ligeti
Yes the list has been quiet recently.  I get the digest version, and there
has been quite a gap since the last one.

With regard to the Lace Guilds Publications, -  Although we don't want the
list to be filled with the "Me too" type messages, it would be nice if one
person could mention when a UK Lace, IOLI Bulletin, or other regular
publication arrives in their letter box, - so the rest of us know to look
out for it.  3 (that I know of - including Me) were about 4 months late with
the Spring Bulletin, I must say the Guilds are Excellent in replacing
missing magazines, - promptly and without any hassle, - but sometimes we
don't realize we are one missing.
PostaL services are dismal these days, so we know we may have to wait a bit
longer - for those of us in far-flung places! - but we don't want to miss
out completely.

I understand the Summer IOLI Bulletin Will come out - but not sure when, -
the Autumn/Fall edition is about due too, now.  I understand the Editor is
ill, and I hope she has a full recovery.

[lace] Lace magazines and memberships

2016-05-07 Thread Beth Marshall
Thanks to Joepie for reminding me about Vuelta y Cruz - combining 
Spanish practice with lace definitely rates highly with me, so wanted to 
subscribe but couldn't afford to when it first started and had forgotten 
about it; subscription for this year now taken out :-)


I'm also a Lace Guild member, can't give you a review of the April issue 
of Lace as it's been sitting unopened by my chair for a week, along with 
quite a pile of non-lace publications I'm behind on reading; too much to 
do, too little time - how I'm going to find time to read Vuelta y Cruz 
as well is a mystery :-(


I find myself agreeing with both Jane & Joepie on the individual 
membership/shared subscriptions questions - of course we should support 
our lace organisations/publications by subscribing individually and 
encouraging others to do so, but where 2 individuals can't afford the 
whole membership fee/subscription surely it's better for everyone to 
have them club together and share one copy - at least the organisation 
gets one sub that way instead of none? Similarly where one individual 
can't justify the cost of an individual sub in terms of what they'll get 
back - that's probably an issue for some of us when considering 
subscribing to an overseas guild/publication where the postage rate 
pushes up the cost and we're too far away to benefit from any guild 
activities apart from the the magazine, and most of us don't have deep 
enough pockets to support more than our local/national group out of 
altruism.
And of course, passing on or lending a recent-ish back copy of a guild 
magazine to a newer lacemaker can be a good "hook" to lead into the 
suggestion they join the guild...

Hi fellow Arachnids,

The magazines I subscribe to are; Lace  and the Young Lacemaker (both from the
Lace Guild, UK) and Lacemaking (the magazine of the Lace Society, UK) with
articles, book reviews, patterns & news from the world of lace. The  Lace
Express  with patterns and eye candy but no articles at all. Vuelta y Cruz
which is brilliant as it helps my Spanish study as it is written in Spanish
and English. This has articles on lace, patterns as well as series of lessons
for a particular type of lace. And lastly but not least OIDFA which lacks the
frequent patterns found in the others but which has more internationally wide
ranging articles than the others. All of them have things to offer which are
useful to lace makers.

I know it seems a lot, but I share with my best friend who is also a lace
maker ;-)

Happy lace making (and lace-reading)

Joepie, East Sussex, UK, where spring has sprung at last. The temperatures are
rising nicely and we have had a couple of really nice (dry) days. HURRAY!






I have just joined OIDFA so I am looking forward to getting their
publication.  Other than that I read the IOLI Bulletin and the Piecework.

[lace] Lace Magazines

2014-10-14 Thread Jane Partridge
I had wondered what had happened to The Lace Guild's letters page, and 
when I asked, I had the response that there hadn't been any letters sent 
in, and those that were had been passed on to the relevant people for 
response!


Emails tend to be answered straight away, or forwarded to the relevant 
experts to answer, so it might be an idea if you do chose this method 
of communication to make it clear that your intention is for it to be 
published in the magazine concerned. Even the 'silly' questions have 
their place - not everyone knows the answers and beginners are sometimes 
afraid to ask (and experienced lacemakers too embarrassed!)


Where book reviews are concerned, do check the magazine's policy. The 
Lace Guild have a team of reviewers for Lace, and the books reviewed are 
those which have been acquired for the library, so members know they can 
borrow them if they don't wish/can't afford to purchase.


Most of the guild libraries welcome copies of new books - budgets for 
purchase are limited, and it isn't always easy to know when a self 
published book is available, especially those published in far flung 
places :-)

[lace] Lace Magazines

2014-10-13 Thread Elizabeth Ligeti
Yes, we all love to receive our magazines, but remember - Editors can only
produce a good magazine if they have patterns and articles to print in them.
If no-one sends in anything, then there will be just a lot of blank pages!

So please, everyone, try to send something in occasionally to the Editor, -
a book review, a pattern, an article about what your group is doing, - even
a Dear Dorothy letter asking for help with some techniques, or where to
access certain threads, etc.

I try to offer one something to each of my Guilds each year. It does not
always happen, but I try!  Don't think My lace isn't good enough, or along
those lines. Beginners like simple patterns, and are just as entitled to
find one in the magazine as the more complicated designs!!

Even a letter to the Editor with a pat on the back, or a grizzle about
something would be OK!!  Most Editors these days accept emails, so there
is No Excuse! :)

2013-10-30 Thread pene piip

On Monday I received two magazines - the Nov./Dec. issue of Piecework
 the Fall 2013 issue of I.O.L.I. Bulletin.
Now I'm waiting for the UK Lace one to arrive.

I realized that the October 2012 issue (#148) had an article about a
Halloween quilt made with 12 lace motifs applied to the pumpkins.
Included were the patterns for an owl, a witch  a vulture.
I was looking forward to seeing the other patterns published, so I'm
wondering if there will be some more patterns in the next issue?
But do we have to wait for another 2 years for all the others?

Warm regards from
Penelope in Tartu, Estonia

Yesterday I received my Needle 'n' Thread magazine - from the Guild of
Needlelaces, and today the postie has just delivered the UK Lace magazine, -
so I have a continuing feast of lace!!!

I have only openend the envelope so far, - and looked at the front cover - a
beaut fan, and read the lovely poem on the back cover.  I get to read the rest
of the magazine tonight - more sweet, lacey dreams!!!

What Would we do without these beaut magazines arriving every now and
again?!!

Hmmm! I must work on a contribution for this year.  I try to do one
contribution to each magazine each year.  If everyone did one thing, there
would be heaps of copy.  A book review, an article, photo, pattern, -
something.  I am sure more people have something they can share.  I am in 5
Guilds (do I have an addiction?) so I need to get my thinking cap on to get
something for each one.  Maybe I better buy some more books, and do some
reviews!!  (what an excuse!!! :))  )

Hello Liz and everyone,

Liz, this is a generous goal!
I am sure more people have something they can share, too, with their lace
magazine(s) of choice.
I like the idea of buying a book to review!

Dear fellow Arachneans,

Today is Saturday  after being empty all week, our letter box had 2 items 
just for me! One was the OIDFA Bulletin  the other Australian Lace.


The OIDFA Bulletin has lots of interesting articles. One story is of how 
the Canadian Quilt of Belonging came to be.  Margot Walker has written an 
excellent article  there are photos of 4 blocks for the countries of 
Belgium, Brazil, Malta  Paraguay, that feature a piece of lace. For those 
that missed the mention of this on Arachne last year, the web-site is: 
http://www.invitationproject.ca/ where you can view  read all about the 
individual blocks.


Other stories are about an Ethnological Museum in Prague, a small lace 
collection in the Civic Museum of History  Art in Trieste, Italy, 
lacemaking in Crete  also in Croatia,  a Bucks pattern for a round mat 
edging from UK lacemaker Bee Barford.


My copy of Australian Lace was a little creased, but has the patterns 
from the previous issue reprinted due to printer problems. There are some 
lovely bookmarks  edgings by Olwyn Scott  Robin Hueppauff. Kath Shadbolt, 
who I met last August, has shown how a coloring book illustration  simple 
tape lace, can be used to produce a Beaked Coralfish. And there is a 
pattern for a tatted bag named Anastasia.


Lots of lovely reading to get me through the next few weeks, while I wait 
for the snow to start melting.
