I have just had a brief look at some of the first page of items. The first
one was just heavenly and some others just beautiful. Such a beautiful
assortment to types and stitches, some more pleasing to my senses than
others. Thank you for includint the information, I enjoyed it.

As a lace maker and soap maker, I have really enjoyed reading this thread.
I have notice throughout the threads, that the term soap has been used
for both soap and detergents.
Soap is made from the combination of oil/fats and lye, Sodium or
Potassium Hydroxide (no lye, no soap), a chemical
Don't know whether this will help anyone but: I have a distant
recollection of attending a lace day when Santina Levy was giving a talk
(probably in the late 80's/early 90's). The subject of cleaning
(old) lace was covered and I remember that the use of natural saponins
was recommended and that

I'm sitting next to Elizabeth who is wearing the pink sweater is deaf.
That looks like a very pleasant meeting area. I suppose you have mentioned
this before and it hasn't registered with me, but where do you meet?

I haven't been following this thread with much attention, as I bought the
huge jar of Orvus when a local farm supply store went out of business. I
have enough Orvus to probably last my lifetime.
I don't know of any way to make oil soaps without using lye. I think

Dearest Spiders,
My personal recovery from Katrina is almost complete, the roofers are
here!! I've never had an elephant on my roof, but it sure makes a lot of
noise, and the whole house shakes when they drop a bundle of shingles. My
poor kitties are NOT happy.
Now what does this have to do
Gentle Spiders,
I have just been looking at Brenda's site and in it are some very colorful
snakes. I have a grandson here looking with me and wants me to make one for
him...is there a pricking somewhere so that I could make him one, or do I need
to buy the pattern. Thank you for any help that
The famous Snake Pattern is by Christine Springett and
can be found in two books she wrote. Look for Lace
for Children of All Ages, or Snakes Galore. Both
books should be readily available from lace supply
dealers. Owning either of these books will give you
the privilege of using the pattern.
A friend has asked a bobbin maker to make her an aficot, and we have found
some pictures of them - but nowhere does it give the size of them.
Please could someone who has one, measure it for us! (I am hoping he will
make 2 so I can have one as well!!! )
My suggestion that it was a bit
I think I read somewhere that you could use a lobster claw, so that might
give you an idea of size if no-one else has any better suggestions.
