Morning All Just to let you all know that Agnes fell yesterday and broke her left wrist (fortunately she is right-handed). She had it set late last night and is back at the fracture clinic today to have the pot put on. I'm sure she'll appreciate your best wishes. No lace-making for her

Sympathies to Agnes and hope she heals well and quickly. I broke a bone in one foot and sprained the other one 8 weeks ago and am just beginning to manage without the crutches (though still wearing this weird boot most of the time) and haven't had chance to make any lace in that time and am

Sorry to hear the news and I empathize with Agnes, BUT there is no excuse not to make lace. As someone with brittle bones who recently has made a habit of breaking arms (mine) there is no reason why Agnes won't be able to make lace. A little slower perhaps, but it is good therapy for those

Agnes, I hope you heal quickly and get back to your lace. This reminded me that Alex Stillwell also broke her left wrist at the IOLI convention in the first half hour of teaching last week. She was kept in hospital overnight but was back teaching the next day. What a trouper. Unfortunately

Just a big thank you for all your good wishes for a speedy recovery of my broken wrist. The good thing is that it is my left wrist and I am right-handed. The bad thing is that it hurts. It'll pass. Thanks again, Agnes - Elloughton UK - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com

Good morning! I've met a lady in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area looking to maybe start making lace. Are there any teachers out that way that are interested? Get in touch with me privately and I will put you in touch with this woman. Thanks! bobbi

Strange how these things happen isn't it?? I'm a member of a completely different group on the internet (miniatures) and forwarded to them a link from Shirley in Oz which showed miniature lace. One of the group contacted me to say she'd been looking for a lace teacher in the same area
