Sorry, I hit send before trimming, forgot because it's early morning (waiting for newspapers to be delivered for our round) and I'm using my phone so can't see the text below my signature in the tiny bit of screen. Will try and remember in future! Jane Partridge - To unsubscribe send email

I sent the following to Ann Humphreys on 11/19, and to lace@arachne on 11/20. Let's see if it gets published this time. Both are part laces using very fine thread. Honiton elements are frequently put together later. Withof elements are connected by the lacemaker as she/he goes. Honiton
