Re: [lace] Wire bobbin lace and pine needles
Can you explain what you mean by pine needles. I know them as the short (about half inch long) round green leaves which are each side of the central stem (rather like the hairs on a feather), and form a brown acidic carpet when they fall from the trees. Your baskets are clearly not made from those - I'd like to see anyone who could. Jean in Poole Dear Jean, Evergreens are a very shifty lot. The species with short furry needles are generally fir trees (oddly enough!) In the U.S. there are many different pine trees, some with individual needles from 6 to 12 inches long. It is entirely possible to coil baskets from them. Sort of the same difference in fiber as cotton and linen. Extra long cotton is about 4 inches long. Extra long flax can be 36 inches.

Re: [lace] Wire bobbin lace and pine needles
Lacers, I will be in Stuttgart Germany this month. I was wondering if anyone can tell me where to find lace or linens there. I read that the Zweigart factory is in the area. Do they have an outlet store? Which brings to mind that I need a metric conversion chart, I forgot last time. My email address has changed if anyone wishes to take note.

I have done it. I created a basket that is embellished with the wire. http://www.domesticarts.com/pineneedle/gallery2.htm At the bottom the page is the new basket called Broken Crown. Thanks for the suggestion. It had been rolling round in the back of my head ever since it was mentioned. What do you think?

Diana, super design! I love the asymmetrical 'surprise' where the lace crown breaks, to flow down the side of the basket. Well done. -- bye for now Bev in Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) cleaning the house for Thanksgiving Monday - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
