I suggest checking the rules of the contest you are interested in entering.Â
Some do not want the work mounted. They want to be able to see both sides of
the work. Judges have to follow the rules in effect even if they don't like
the rules.
I think glue on a contest item would make a judge
I have just be studying my copy of âTatting Artistry in Threadsâ by Helma
Siemann, and see that she has glued her multitude of Josephine Knots etc, to
Art board, to form the pictures (which are lovely) Is this an acceptable way
of fixing tatting to a background â and would it be accepted by
Karen,
You described using brightly colored threads for your beginners so that you can
reference which pair of bobbins to address. A technique I used when I was
working a very complex pattern was to trace the pathways of my pattern using
colored pencils. Then I placed color matched elastics
I'm following this thread with great interest and am about to start my
first virtual lace class as a student. It is needle lace instead of bobbin
lace, so it will be interesting to see what challenges are unique to lace
made in the hand vs on a pillow. Somehow students will need to arrange a
Hi All, I included Janice's note because I also had trouble finding the
photos at Flickr and Sue told me to look under Photostream. There they
were! I think I've had that problem with other things people have put on
there and I just looked in the albums.
And I've received the patterns and
And the cost of $150 for a year of Zoom seems very reasonable for the
teacher to pay and share out over all the classes they teach in that
year - much less than the costs of transportation, room hire etc

Yes, I removed the freebie patterns from Flickr, as I saw no point of
them taking up space there in future.

I am at the stage where I need to get rid of stuff so I know how you feel about
that. Did you remove the photos from Flickr as I went to see them and could not
find anything you were describing?

Antje and other potential virtual teachers,
I like to keep the virtual classes very small, 4-6 depending on their level
of lacemaking skills. You can have the students send photos or have them
scare their screen. Then you can annotate but that all takes extra time. I
teach on Zoom and use
Thank you very much, Karen.
But how do you do as a teacher? imagine you have 8 students making the lace
you are teaching, and that each of them has a different difficulty or are
doing something wrong. But you cannot take their pillow... They have good
diagrams, and pictures of the finished lace,
I had considered the digest people and decided I had no idea how long it
would be before a digest came out and just needed to get these things
out of my house while I had some time to deal with them. So I was sorry
not to have contacted everyone on the list with my 5 day offer but I

Hi Sue,Just wanted to point out that I receive the digest version of Arachne
and as emails are less frequent these days it takes a long time for a digest
to come and even then it only contains about 6 emails. Anyway, your offer was
seen today, September 29, by me and probably many others who get
I think there are a couple of other advantages to online classes. It might be
possible to get teachers from far away to give classes in the Americas. Also,
in Europe and Britain, where there are many more lace makers, weekly classes
are common. Zoom plus a phone camera makes that relatively
Hello all,
I realize I need to clarify my response to the virtual lace classes.
As a student, I have a large monitor, such as a desktop, laptop, or iPad
in front of me to watch the demonstrations, and for the teacher to see me.
Then I have a second camera, such as a phone, mounted over my lace
