I keep all my lace stamps separately from the rest of my collection, and with my
lace patterns folders. Why lose them amongst all the other non-lace ones?
I display them on Hagner sheets, double sided, and I slide the Hagner sheet 
into one
of those transparent plastic sleeves with multiple holes on the side. Those 
sheets
are then clipped into my folder.
If I demonstrate somewhere, or want to show my lace stamps to anyone, I know I 
can
get them out and on show while keeping them protected.If I'm really conceerned 
with
their safety, I can even seal the top of the transparent sleeve with sticky 
tape. I
can always cut it off and transfer the Hagner sheets to another sleeve later on.

Yours in lace,

Helene, the froggy from Melbourne who is too busy to write much at present (but
stamps are worth a note :-))

Hi secret pal,

Your parcel has brightened my day.  I have been ill for quite a while and 
feeling miserable so the parcel was a great distraction!

The choc/mint drink I will have to leave until I am better and can taste it and 
the same goes for the perfume (except that I won't be drinking it   (BG)).  I 
am looking forward to both.  Of course the chocolate eggs had to be eaten as 
they go off quickly and chocolate is always good if you are not well (vbg)!

The threads are gorgeous, the puzzle book is already in use and the photo album 
is so pretty.  I still haven't decided what to use the notebook for that you 
sent me in the last parcel as I want to use it for something special.  I 
secretly wonder how the potpourri that was attached to it was allowed through 
customs but I am not complaining.

I had to bury one of my kittens on his 1st birthday a few weeks ago which was 
very sad, but I now have a pure white kitten called Toby to keep Lucy company, 
though I am covered in scratches from his claws. (David can relate to that with 
his new kitten!).  Lucy has been eating her treats that you sent so her nose is 
not too out of joint with the new addition to the family.

I hope you enjoy your trip.

Thanks again

Janette

Great; I can now throw away the PO slip confirming I *did* send it :)
The decision now is whether to put it in my stamp album or with all my 
lace memorabilia.
That's an easy-peasy one, I should think; make yourself a separate 
album for textile-related stamps :) It's not difficult to find pages - 
the kind with see-through film protecting the stamps, not the kind 
where you glue stamps in - and they're already pre-punched to fit in a 
binder. If I remember a-right, I put a couple of US stamps which had 
lacy frills on them on the envelope I used; they, too, can be added to 
the "album" :)

Since there aren't enough lace stamps made to satisfy one, I expanded 
to "all textiles" (weaving, spinning, etc) but the lace-related pages 
in my binder are still the favourites and the "textile album" is the 
only one active these days...

[lace-chat] Secret Pal Thank You

[JMMAcademy]

   I received my package from my secret pal.   It was wonderful!  I had some 
marvelous orange cookies I shared with my Spinning pals.  I got some gourmet 
cocoa, that was super.  The sweet little bear is holding my bobbin till I get 
it on a pillow.  The chocolates were so yummy.  I also got the most fantastic 
pair of socks.  They have spiders all over them.  They will be wore out before 
long because I now have to have them on to spin on my spinning wheel and make 
lace.  They are very rarely off my feet.   Thank You so very very much.  You 
are so wonderful.Hannah Moad

Yippee!  It's arrived!  Thanks ever so much Tamara.  I have wanted this
stamp ever since I have known of its existence.  The decision now is whether
to put it in my stamp album or with all my lace memorabilia.  I'll decide
once I have shown it to everyone. :-)  My mum, who is 79 is constantly
amazed when I tell her about the internet and the people I meet there and
how kind and friendly everyone is.  When I told her I had won a raffle with
someone I had never met, who lived in another country she couldn't quite
comprehend it.   So she'll be especially pleased to see it.


Best wishes and thanks again

Dear Secret Pal,

Thank you for my parcel that arrived today.
I do like the look of the flowers in the address book.
The nature is so different from ours.
The little Easter bunny is sitting here feeding me - it is lovely.
I do like the fragrance of the perfume and the bath gloves are
really good. I have used the same type a long time so they will be of good
use.
I have never used Bouc linen so that will be interesting how it is
compared with Bocken and Moravia linen I mostly used.
Many thanks for finding out about the wood for the bobbins.
They have such a nice feel.
Many thanks again /Sonja

[lace-chat] where I live

[Bev Walker]

Hi everyone

This is to go with the other sites around the world. I discovered there is
a webcam in the village of Sooke and a couple near the harbour - I live 15
miles east of it, in the wilderness. Unfortunately I can't view the
webcam, not having the right software - so I hope it looks as good as it
does out my window - the weather is embarassingly spring-like!

and note that the 'oo' sound is pronounced long as in flute, and no 'e'
(though we would pronounce the website SookieNet )

escape ;)

Hi Pene et al,

The starfishes are lovely, and that one in particular looks as if he ahs
been decorated.   My grandson is here ate the moment - he has been poorly
with am attack of sickness, and has very nearly completed his basic snake
bookmark today (he has already made a cat in tape lace for his Mum) and
thinks 'someone' ought to make a pricking for a starfish just like the red
one .

[lace-chat] Lace patterns in nature

[Pene Piip]

Many years ago I saw a photo of a sea-star that looked as if a
lacemaker had  thought that it needed some decoration added.
What do other arachneans think?

Isn't nature full of surprises sometimes?
