RE: [lace] Out of Print Authors

2014-04-01 Thread Marianne Gallant
I received Catherine's book in the mail today, and I agree with Jill, it is
fabulous.
And yes, I also haven't done needlelace in ages, but have hauled out what I
started years ago (I can't even remember when), and am trying to find the
patterns I was using, but have only found one so far. And I am looking at it
and going huh? What am I supposed to be doing here? I guess I'll have to
start with a beginner piece just go get it back into my mind how to do
things. 
But it definitely is very inspiring. 
And I sure hope other lace books will also be republished. There are quite a
few I'd like, but am not about to pay hundreds of dollars for each, I'd
rather spend my money on thread or bobbins.

I slipped up - sorry for not trimming my earlier post. Blame it on too
much theses editing.

What a great idea Jill. I will definitely do that.

I'm so glad you managed to do this finally. At least others will now
have the opportunity to obtain this wonderful work of art.

I know that some people aren't keen on the spiral binding because you can't see
what the title of the book is, but DH suggested that I write the name of the
book on a tie-on label and tie it to the spiral binding.  I think this is a
great idea and one that I will use with my other spiral bound books.
