I will have to tell my mother about your "welding lace". There was a lot of
it at our house too, as my father was a welder. I am sure Mom will be amused,
I wish Dad was still here to tell him also.

A seller on ebay has very obligingly included a photograph of the contents
of the "House of Crafts' Lacemaking Craft Kit". It appears that there is
fabric included to cover the "pillow", and it's apparently glued on.

Hello to all,
I'm looking for a large pattern for a tablecloth. I know that this will be a
mamoth project but I would prefer a pattern which is "all lace" instead of
inserts.
Does anyone know where I might be able to find one - I must be honest and say
that I prefer Torchon lace to any others
