I was looking at this last night and the link was a yahoo one, which led to a photo album in which I couldn't even find the photo of the angels, or any connection to Sherry's website. I had found the photo by doing a search in Pinterest under 'bobbin lace angels' and the copy of Sherry's

Hi All I've just done the same thing and got back to a 'yahoo images search'. If the person in question has copied it from one of the 'images' pages on yahoo or google then it probably has been 'spidered' by them and the original site doesn't always show! However, as I have a page with

Clay has very kindly posted a picture of a lace edging that I started in a class with Jane Atkinson at Lace Convention in Bristol in 2005. I had changed the ground to Rose Ground and after I was turning the 3rd corner I noticed that I’d done Torchon Ground just after the 2nd corner, so I

When I saw my picture I spent about 20 minutes trying to see if I could find the link back to my website and couldn't find it. This pinterest to me is another way of taking other people's stuff and spreading it around to the point nobody owns it anymore. It reminds me of books that have been

You probably know by now that I use Pinterest extensively as a links page for LaceNews, and it has been extremely effective in that regard. Pinterest does have a few that it will not allow, such as pins from facebook pages. No one has complained about any of the over 1000 pins, except once. And

Sherry, I'm on Pinterest but I gather things only with the red Pin to repost on mine.  Below each pin on a board you can write a comment, so I would go back to the offending page and make a comment that you are happy to see lace being spread around, but that they should say where the picture came

Sherry, thank you so much! Binche is a very demanding lace, and it is the one which continues to seduce me! If you're interested in learning Binche, I suggest that you start with Flanders Lace. There are two reasons for this... First, the threads used in Flanders are heavier and easier to

When pinterest started a few years ago, people were pinning photos with no indication where they came from. A lot of people complained to pinterest, including me. At some point within the last year (I can't remember exactly when) pinterest changed its policy and how its software works. Now any

Sherry -- I went to pinterest and did a search on the name of your website. In the upper left hand corner is a search slot that works on pinterest content. I pasted the link to your website into the search slot. It gave me 6 images from your lovely tatting. All but one had a link to your webpage

I love pinterest! I use it in several ways. I use it to collect pictures or links on a subject, to collect photos on a subject, to collect project ideas, to organize gif sets or memes for use on twitter/FB, and to collect sayings art work I just think are nice. When someone Pins something it
