It looks good Daphne, and certainly unique:-) I certainly would have some
sort of ribbon or cord attached to wear it, making it much better to use
that way.

In sunny Dorset but where the wind is a tad over keen
Hello
I have just made a MP3 Player case. The lace design is my own
.
Well done for your win:-)

I don't think that size matters too much. You do need to stitch it all
around so that it is firmly attached. One t-shirt has a piece of Honiton
and the other has three pieces of Milanese - same design, different braids.
Both were made in fairly fine
tried making lace with gutermanns sewing
thread, but do have some silk which is nice to work with.

I have several low necked T shirts, so I made an edging in Gutermann sewing
machine thread if I remember correctly, and stitched it onto a piece of
fabric was darted at the sides
to a collar, at a fairly recent lace day. I wonder where else
some of the arachne people wear their lace apart from lace days or
weddings?? Perhaps you would share that with us.

I'm afraid that people's eyes would not linger on my frame long enough to
see the lace
I can prepare lace patterns and then
make the lace.

more photos and when I remember where the others are that I wanted to add I
will go in and do it.
Thanks for all the answers, but it really was the extra bits that were
missing,

Avital has added a link
the hurwitzend folder up, I can check out each photo, but cant
work out how to add more.I am obviously having a bad techno week so any
help would be appreciated, grin.

I clicked before thinking this time and its an advert for viagra, so
deleting is the right option.
I have since scanned my computer to be on the safe side.
Usually I am much more careful but early on a sunday morning I slipped up
this time.

I agree with Jacquie, it looks suspicious
I wish I had seen square bobbins in the early days before I got bought lots
of spangled ones. I do love the english spangled ones, but watching people
use the non spangled ones for sewings and things they look simpler. Your
chop stick ones sound great.

I would love to know where the pattern can be found for that hanging bird
piece? that was lovely and just made me smile.
Unfortunately we had to leave before the competition entries were announced,
so I will look on the website to see the results when they go on.

Hi Sue,
To answer your colour question;- I do not like working in black, but when
I do I use soft light green card. If I need to put film over it I use
clear matt film (from any good stationers).

Thank you Helen
Reading your reply and that of Susan Hottle what I think I will do is print
out a simple bit of pattern and either using highlights or the computer to
colour, check out some simple colours and see which suits me best. It
doesn't matter much what the pattern is as long as its
I wish I had your way with words. I just love your poems:-) Please keep it
up.

The Torchon Tug is an awesome force
To keep all those passives in line.
If they start in to waiver all over the place
Just give them a tug and they're fine.

Hello Jane
Veronica Sorenson's 'Modern Lace Designs' on page 96.
It was published in 1984 so almost certainly out of print so might cost
silly money on ebay but guild libraries are likely to have a copy.

I have the best DH in the world. Although that could be subject to debate.
He was online and called my attention to this article on AOL.

Incredibly beautiful and I have never seen anything quite like them before.
I do have some of the moder bird type in my box which I rarely use. They
are a bit stiff.

I hope this still qualifies as at least *somewhat* on topicwe do use
scissors to cut lace thread after
of it (it still lives in the back of my
cupboard and has never been used), some of you are bound to know, LOL.

Sue T. you obviously need a small travel pillow! Mine is the size of a
handbag, and folds up with 2 small carry handles.
As it is a roller pillow, I can only do straight lace
on my return.

I use Filato per Tombolo Cantu quite regularly, being a maker of Cantu
lace.
It is in Brenda's book. Yes, they are sizes 30, 40 and 50 in 25 gram
spools.
On page 34 of TFL edition 5, I find the following:

Thank you to all who make this work. This group is an invaluable resource
for all, and I mean ALL sorts of information on lace. Don't know what I

Hello Daphne,
Yes, I made the Christening gown from Veronica Sorenson's book back in
the 90's. It took me about 4 and a half years years to complete
including the time off from the project to regenerate. I made the yoke,
then the sleeves
found it
After a recent clean off my computer doesn't have some of the sites
bookmarked, Mark for instance!!

It's from Wedding Lace Portfolio by Louise Colgan $16. I forget which
side of the Pond you're from, but Holly Van Sciver has it. Very pretty,
not overly taxing. But a nice result. In my search for instructions on
mounting the lace, I read about
processes and answers have been lovely.

What a lucky bride to get something with so much thought into it. Hearts
are always appropriate for a bride. And all the elements!

I've always understood that the wheatears (pointed tallies) in
Bedfordshire lace is the fertility symbol and a hankie edged with a Beds
pattern which has a lot of wheatears was traditionally given
remember seeing them?
I hope the lace and the cat survive the fallen pillow.

This is one thing I had recently discussed with the Kununurra Lace Group
as
over 50% said that they could not read a pricking without a picture of the
finished lace. These ladies have less than 2
for my
enjoyment and when a piece is good enough I can enjoy giving it to someone,
it I think its a mess then it goes into my file.

first
patterns have lots of instructions, the latter less and less. I try
