Hello, all -
I've been reading messages on this list for quite some time, but
I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've posted.
I've been making bobbin
lace for a number of years, but this is my first time attending the IOLI
convention, coming up in just a week in Bethesda, MD. I have a
I have looked at the pictures of Kate's wedding dress that is on display
and I have to say that I think some people are just being too critical. I
think it is a nice display myself. It shows the dress and the veil to

Hey, I am a lacemaker too. I would love to see more people making lace also
to keep handmade laces alive for hte next generation and the generation after
that and so on. I am just stating it isn't Carrickmacross lace technique which

Hi,
I'm new at bobbin lace and was told that some people cross and then twist and
