Is the ladybug on the rose leaf, and eating it away, just leaving a skeleton

It is hard to see, as I could not get the picture to enlarge.

That quite often happens with bulk postings, it does with 'Lace' from

It's because the overseas envelopes go airmail (which usually takes

hope you don't mind me forwarding this to the list Fran, I think everyone else
who is thinking of making a pillow bag will appreciate another take on the flat
bag. I've got lots of ideas from everyone and as I have the book Clay was
recommending I'm going to try that one first. Thank you one
My wonderful horizontally oriented pillow bag has handles that allow me to
hold it in one hand and not do a balancing act with a hip or any other body
part. But that does not mean that it's easy to be graceful while
negotiating doors! I try to keep one hand free so I can open a door and
then use
The handles are usually just a bit of dowel or even a posh bit of
timber which is fed into the entire edge of the outside of the last 2
arms
and they have a D shaped cut out of the fabric so you can grasp the
handle.

How well does the dowel stay in place when
you're not carrying the pillow?
Well, you could probably put something like a big wooden bead or rubber
leg-protectors on the ends of the dowel. Something to make the tips
just a bit thicker than the shaft, but still fit
Hi Lorri and all, There is an article by Mary Dwyer in the Nov./Dec. 1993
issue of Piecework magazine. It's called Native American Laces and is
about Sybil Carter's efforts teaching lace making to various Indian tribes.
The article says from New York to California so presumably Minnesota might

I copied the picture to my files and then enlarged, but of course it was so
compressed it didn't give me any more definition than the small picture.
BUT... my first reaction was that of course that's where the ladybug

Hello Gentle Spiders,
My favourite carry bag is a simple piece of fabric cut about 6 inches - 15 cm
larger than the pillow base and hemmed all around to take a piece of strong
elastic. Takes up no room when removed - as no padding. I can put it over my
pillow while the pillow is still on its

If it's what I'm thinking of, I've seen it in the Lace Museum and Guild
newsletter. It's in the 20(4), Fall 2002, edition of their newsletter,
and they say it's from a publication called The Outlook. They estimate
that it was written some time around 1900.
