RE: [lace] Pattern needed..... Long shot I know.

What she wants is the words Mary Kay in the trademarked font done in lace. I was thinking about doing a fan border around it like a small doily. She wants them to be a small coaster size. * If you do not talk to your cat

[lace] wool blanket bolster

Hello spiders Today a couple of old wool blankets fell in my lap. I know Esthers recipe for cookie pillows, but I don't have a tumble dryer, so I hope just hot washing and a spin dryer will do. I also prefer a bolster pillow and wonder how to get the felted blanket tight enough around the

Re: [lace] Lace CD

I picked this up on ebay for a lot less a while ago. In my opinion it's useful but not all that wonderful. Wouldn't pay full price for it. It appears on ebay quite frequently. Jean in Poole, Dorset, UK - Original Message - From: Daphne To: Arachne Sent: Saturday, September 02,

Re: [lace] wool blanket bolster

Hot wash, rinse cold! That will make the wool shrink. Wrap your wool fabric around anything narrow and cylindrical that is the right length for your bolster. A length of broom handle, or a roll from wrapping paper, for instance? Make a fabric case from a rectangle as wide as the circumference of

Re: [lace] old trees

Hello Jo, The Old Trees are beautiful! I wanted to do something similar, but wasn't sure it would look good. I did a tree in black, and I like it very much, but after seeing these, I'm tempted to make another. What thread did you use? I was thinking of using #12 perle cotton to get the

Re: [lace] old trees

Hi Jo and All, The trees are wonderful!! I love seeing them in so many different colors. I've always loved what Lenka does with the roots on this pattern and your lace circle did a wonderful job with the old trees! Jane in Vermont, USA where we've had wonderful temperate weather though I guess

Re: [lace] wool blanket bolster

I also prefer a bolster pillow and wonder how to get the felted blanket tight enough around the core. I didn't see an answer to this part of your question yet. I have heard it recommended to have more than one person on this job. Lay the cloth out on the floor. If you have extra people

[lace] tension for a wool bolster

If you have no one to help create tension as you wind the felted material around the core, open a window (sash type), and close it on one end of the material. Then begin winding, pulling hard against the end caught in the window. I have done two bolsters this way: they are nice and firm. -

Re: [lace] wool blanket bolster

Hi Alice and everyone how to get the felted blanket tight enough around the core. I didn't see an answer ... (for the record) In my reply, to cinch it with the casing - works really well for firming the roll of fabric, especially if working alone ;) viz: Make a fabric case from a

Tamara's was a joke, but the way our local government really works is often a joke too. Currently we're all being encouraged to recycle and different district/local councils have different methods of doing this. In Poole, we currently have two waste bins - a grey one for household waste which
