It’s always difficult to know how things will look on someone else’s computer 
or tablet. It looked fine to me but I have now changed the PDF files and the 
cells are a bit bigger - I’ve also added row numbers which were missing on some 
pages. If the new PDFs aren’t any better for you please contact me privately 
and I’ll send the original Excel spreadsheets.

Re: [lace] Lace Guild website update

[Rochelle Sutherland]

As someone who does a lot of Carrickmacross, I'm delighted that they are
talking about the technique. The explanations from the RSN made sense to me
immediately, it didn't concern me that the media were chattering away about it
without much idea what they were talking about because we have heard that
before with other styles of lace. Arguably all styles of lace. To me, the
point is the RSN and Carrickmacross lacemakers and teachers have been given a
marvellous profile in this. The press release might have just said the lace
was appliqued and left it at that. Now there might be an opportunity to build
on the interest and get more people doing lace, which after all is what we
really need. I'd be interested to know how many hits the Carrickmacross centre
site has had since the wedding and whether there are more enquiries about
classes. Do we have anyone on Arachne who is involved at Kenmare, or another
school?

I found this very interesting
to read. My only thought is how right after the
wedding people in the media
were comparing it to Carrickmacross Lace which it
actually isn't. The wedding
was so great to watch on TV. I so wish I could
have been there but maybe
actually watching the wedding in my livingroom I had
the best seat in the
wedding. I even wore my  knock off Kate/Diana look alike
ring on. HEHE.  I am
finding it interesting reading about how the dress was
make/how it was
displayed. I LOVE all kinds of lace. Makes me think about
collecting all kinds
of lace and cutting it up to applique on some closes.

But the information the RSN gives the media says it is made "using 
Carrickmacross techniques". So the media isn't really at fault here. 

I can see it, though. When you think about how Carrickmacross is made - well, 
you use tiny stitches to sew motifs onto a net background. Yes, in traditional 
Carrickmacross the motifs are blank fabric and then you go around and add in a 
cordonnet and further decoration as needed, but the basic concept is the same 
as sewing ready-made motifs onto a net background. So in a way the lace is 
indeed made with Carrickmacross techniques.

Dear
all,

I have just updated the Lace Guild website with a new lace gallery -
this time it shows some of the Guild's collection of Bedfordshire lace. All
these pieces and some more will be on display at the IOLI convention in
Bethesda at the beginning of August.
http://www.laceguild.org/museum/gallery.html

There is also information about
what is available from the Guild for anyone planning to go out and make lace
in public on National Lacemaking Day on 10th September.
http://www.laceguild.org/guild/natlaceday.html

And a list of lace days in
Britain up to the end of this year.

We'll be away this weekend so the Lace Guild website update is early
this month - the URL is in the signature. There are new 'Lace'
magazine extracts, and the something else you might expect at this
time of the year - if you're a newcomer to the list look for more
details on Monday.

Dear David - in blustery Glasgow,

Again and again through the years, you have provided your professional 
expertise to lacemakers throughout the world.  We appreciate what you do to 
help 
Jean keep The Lace Guild's website interesting and current.  

For this, perhaps we should bestow upon you a new title.  Lord Lace?

And not only to young people.  The pattern given is perfect for adults as

excellent advert for the Lace Guild.  Thank you, Jean, see you soon.

Re: [lace] Lace Guild website update with Exhibition Gallery

[Jean Leader]

I forgot to say that I have *not* posted the Myth and Mystery stuff 
on the French version of the web site yet. I need a translation of 
the text on the first page (and some time). (For the same reason the 
Lace Census Luggage Labels are also only on the English version.) 
Might get round to doing them later, but we've got the April mag 
extracts to do first.

I've done a little bit of tweaking with the MorM pages, so if anyone 
has had any problems, go back, refresh/reload, and navigate slowly 
through the gallery, reading the captions (there's magic happening 
while you're looking at one pic that makes the next one appear 
quickly).

I was at a workshop last year where one person was putting finishing touches
to her Ascot hat. If I remember the conversations correctly the hats were
made for an exhibition that was on for some time, including during Ascot,
but I don't think that the hats were worn at Ascot.
