with three people further preferring I (heart/love) making lace.

22 replies came in for the second category:

I would rather be... lacing 0
... lacemaking 6
... making lace 12
... doesn't matter 4

I was interested, following the discussion of lacemaking/lacing. As one
respondent mentioned about preferences, they aren't necessarily consistent.

Many voiced opinion about the hackneyed new-speak I heart - yes, point
taken.
I do like it as part of a bobbin saying, kinda cute (however) and saves
painting some letters :p

I will conclude by mentioning that, prompted by my lace teacher of two
decades ago, I sign at the end of notes to lace friends, Happy Lacing

LOL.

Thanks for all the lovely little messages in response to my poll!

[lace] lacemaking on bobbin

2009-03-23 Thread bev walker
Hi everyone

An opinion poll - maybe just send to me privately, and if I have a lot of
replies, I'll tally and report back.

If you would buy a bobbin so inscribed, which would you prefer:

I (heart) lacemaking ...or... I (heart) lacing ...or... doesn't matter.

I would rather be lacing ...or... I would rather be lacemaking ...or... I
would rather be making lace ...or... doesn't matter.

Assume that this is a nicely painted bobbin, also assume that I'm not
painting it g.
Just wondering, really!
