Wow, that was quick! Thank you very much Cindy, Sue and Kathryn. This is of
great help. I will try that in the following days to see how it works.
Greetings from Antje, in Spain

> Dialing in to a Zoom meeting with more than one
Dialing in to a Zoom meeting with more than one device is no different than
you and your friend dialing in to a Zoom meeting from different locations.
The only caveat is that you must have sound turned off on one of your
devices (not just mute - turn the volume of the speaker off) or it will
cause
As long as the host gives you the right to enter the Zoom room you can
do so with multiple devices on the same call - entering using the same
link. Only one Zoom account is needed.
The crucial thing to remember is only to sign in using sound on one of
the devices - or everyone gets awful
Hi Kathryn,
I am wondering how you do this: you must connect your lap top to ZOOM and
also your Mobile phone to zoom. How is this possible? Do you need two
accounts? How do you connect to the same Zoom class with two devices?
Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
Best wishes!
Antje,
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
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

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

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 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
We began with Meet. It worked well until we tried
to mount a second camera to show bobbin lace pillows.
It is challenging to get a second camera mounted
without the issue of feedback on Meet. It can be
done, but adds an extra layer of frustration for
the students.
Zoom seems to have addressed
Deborah, thank you very much for your advice! I will take note of it.
In fact, I like Zoom much better, it has more possibilities, even the free
version of 40 minutes. But it had some security problems at the beginning
of the pandemic, and some of my students do not want to use it. Anyway, I
When we started going virtual for everything I purchased a couple of items
that have proved invaluable. One was a $30 USB web cam/mic from Walmart.com
because my desktop didn't have those. It clips to the top of the monitor
screen. Admittedly, for that price the video isn't HD but the mic works
Antje,
MEET is a Google product and some people will refuse to allow Google products
on their phones or computers for security reasons. MEET would have to be
downloaded and installed to their computer just like any other meeting
software. We use ZOOM at all of our organizations. Both products
Dear Karen, I too am curious at how you're making out.
Like Antje, the balance of a camera, computer, etc etc seems
costly. I have been working with someone on very basic beginner
things and it seems to be going ok but I can't imagine trying to teach
finer laces via this process.
Thanks for the
Thank you very much Karen for sharing your experience. It is of great help.
I am trying to organize lessons via the Internet, and am finding some
difficulties. I would like to make it as easy as possible for the students,
and that means that they should not have to buy extra technology nor
Some of my random thoughts on virtual lace classes: Having both taught and
taken several virtual lace classes, I think they are here to stay. There
are both positives and negatives as with most things in life. I like that
people can join from anywhere in the world without the expense and time of
I have taken one virtual class and I have just signed up for several more
including the Halas lace class to be given by The Lace Museum. (Still
places available for people who want to learn this beautiful lace.). I am
thinking about writing something about them. For those people who have
taken a
