Hi,
I'm in Bath. I was planning on going to the suppliers fair on Saturday,
there's a few things I need, and I'm sure I'll find stuff that I want but
isn't actually necessary :-)
I thought that glue and lace was a very bad mixture, but I couldn't
remember. I think I might actually try and ma
Dona, thank you for posting the web site regarding
Balinese lace. While I found it to be interesting and
attractive, I would like to know a bit more about it.
I hope that your next trip there, to make lace, will

As nothing has been mentioned on Arachne for some time regarding the
lace patterns available from the museum at Retournac, and we have had
quite a few new Arachnes lately, I thought I would forward the message I
received tonight (and yes, my subscription is on its way!).
For those who don't know,
Hi
There are copies of the book about Rachel available but the only way of paying
for them is with a cheque made out in pounds sterling.
For anyone interested the book costs £2.50 + 50p postage and packing making a

kitchen. I don't use them for tea trays just display. It's fun to lo

I would suggest day trips by train from London. Three good sized

Hello Sally,
As someone mentioned a little while ago, the Embroidery and Lace
galleries at the V& A seem to be closed at the moment. It would be

Thank you all for your kind comments on my piece of Gros Point needlelace.
I must now dream up something special for "7" in 2007!!
I really enjoy working Gros Point and the embellishments, where one's
