After thinking about Start With A Twist I realized that Ulrike would not approve as this leaves a bigger hole. Maybe for demonstrating purposes Stop, Watch And Try would be better.

Re: [lace] Re: demonstrating lace/NY (SWAT team logo)
Hello! My name is Jolene and I am 26 and brand new to lace making. I recently went to the Fiber Arts Festival in Hemlock, NY where the Genesse Country Lace Guild had a booth set up. They were demonstrating bobbin lacemaking and that was the first time I had ever seen the process. I fell in love immediately!! I attended my first guild meeting last month and I am looking forward to my new adventure into the beautiful world of lace. I would highly recommend live demonstrations because that is what worked for me! I would also recommend demonstrating to your local art schools. There are a lot of artists who would be excited to see this process. I know I would have loved this while I was in school. I also wanted to let everyone know that you all are doing such a great job thinking of ways to inspire others to get into lacemaking. Even reading your brainstorming e-mails have given me a lot of resources!! Thank you!! P.S. This is my first time responding to these discussions and I hit the reply to all button and I am not sure if this is the correct way to do it. Hopefully it works!

Re: [lace] Re: demonstrating lace/NY (SWAT team logo)
Hi Jolene Welcome to Arachne - and thanks for posting. Your suggestion re art schools is great, and I would also suggest that the textile and theatre costume departments of colleges and universities would also be interested in demonstrations. Feel free to post questions / thoughts as they come up. Normally we just reply to lace@arachne.com (for lace related topics) and only reply to the individual who has posted if we want to chat privately with them. We also have Arachne-chat for non-lace related subjects, though that is much quieter than it used to be Sue sueba...@comcast.net - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

But a number of lace traditions use the open method of TC instead of CT. They always Start wtih a Twist (well, except for CTC). Robin P.

RE: [lace] Re: demonstrating lace/NY (SWAT team logo)
Sorry Pat, that song wasn't familiar to me, so I Googled it - found out it was a 1982 number and when I played the UTube video, it didn't ring any bells. However, my old Some People poem (my favourite) can be sung to the tune of My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean Some people knit wool into blankets Some crochet with treble and chain. Some people cut lovely new fabric Just to sew it together again. Bring back, bring back, bring back my bobbins to me, to me. Bring back, bring back, bring back my bobbins to me. But me, I like to use bobbins And weave patterns in thread without fear. And if people should say it's so useless, So are peacocks and rainbows, my dear. (Are you still on Arachne, Sulochola?) (And for tatters, the word bobbins can be replaced by shuttles) Noelene in Cooma nlaffe...@ozemail.com.au -Perhaps Noelene could write a poem to be sung to the tune of 'It started -with a kiss' to go with the poster and the new wording!

That came out great, Mark! Noelene is our poet laureate and you're our artist. Is there a painting/drawing/graphics equivalent of poet laureate? Robin P.

RE: [lace] Re: demonstrating lace/NY
I sat on the bottom of the stairs in a hotel one Friday afternoon while my husband discussed the bill (booked from Airport, promised a discount). I was tatting and gave a cross bookmark to a lady in red from Texas who had been in New York for the US Open. We went on a bus to Montreal that evening. If we had gone on a bus to NY as originally planned (we flew from Chicargo), we might have been there for the most famous Tuesday of recent times!
