[lace-chat] Quiet list, memory quilts, lace in Israel?

2012-11-27 Thread Dona Bushong
I've had no chance yet to unpack my lace after our most recent move back to
the States.  For a variety of reasons it's taken longer than usual to settle
in this time. Nothing bad, just a lot going on along with a small house with
limited space for setting up a pillow. I head to Israel in a couple of weeks
for a month and am considering packing up a travel pillow and starting on the
smallest (in width) yardage for the on going christening gown I'm making.
Will have to see if the suitcase allows.

Karen asked about a memory quilt.  My daughters and I also make memory
quilts but use t-shirts.  Our daughters each attended several high schools
with all our moving.  In one school she might play lacrosse and participate in
a musical program, in another it would be volleyball and drama - whatever was
available and interesting. Each of these clubs traveled to events and usually
there was a t-shirt provided for each team member.  This continued into
university.  With boxes of t-shirts which were really a diary of their school
years, we cut out the important part, the logos or sayings and created quilts.
My husband and I have been fortunate to travel to many interesting places to
scuba dive.  The dive shops always have a fun selection of t-shirts usually
depicting local dive sites.  We've collected them with the idea that I'll make
us matching quilts so when we're no longer able to dive we can sit under our
quilts and reminisce about the places we've been. I'm looking forward to
adding a t-shirt or two to the collection from scuba in the Red Sea.

I'll try this question again as I received no response earlier - are there any
lace things I should see while in Israel?  Understanding that my movements
might be somewhat restricted currently. I will be back and forth several times
a year so I don't have to rush to see anything right away but if there's
something to be seen, I'd like to check it out.

Hi Sue,
Chat has been quiet, probably because of the holiday last Thursday.  I don't 
have any chat except to say that this week is my check-ups, dental this morning 
and the dreaded colonoscopy on Friday.  Got my mammogram done earlier in the 
month.  Dentist decided it was time for another crown, not because he has a 
boat 
payment due, but because my insurance will run out when DH retires, which will 
be before my next check up.  He has been watching this tooth for years so now 
is the time to get it done while I get some help to pay for it.

[lace-chat] Quiet List

2012-11-26 Thread Adele Shaak
Hi Everybody:

I have my apartment up for sale, so all my lacemaking equipment is packed away. 
I'm in withdrawal!

If anybody out there wants to spend a quiet minute or so thinking wouldn't it 
be nice if somebody bought Adele's apartment really soon I would appreciate 
it. Might make a difference, and certainly can't hurt.

While I'm waiting, I am thinking of trying a piece of needle lace, as that can 
always be hidden in a second. But I'm a bit discouraged with NL - I can never 
hide my threads invisibly, like everybody else seems to be able to do. I always 
wind up with a lumpy bumpy cordonnet, and it's very disheartening. I have taken 
a couple of NL courses, but you never get that far in the classes, so I've 
never been able to display my ineptitude to a teacher and have her show me what 
I'm doing wrong.

That's the problem with classes, isn't it? You go home with big plans but then 
you hit a snag you never recover from.

I think lots of people are running around trying to get ready for Christmas. 
Also some of the lace group ladies tell me they are busy trying to sort next 
years programs. I am trying to get ready for Havant and the NEC. Free gifts at 
our stall for both fairs and even more at the NEC!
