Lovely! Thank you for all your hard work in organising this. It will be most helpful, now that you've made it so easy to find these videos. I've already spent some time watching in amazement; it's all so fascinating - I never knew there were so many differences. To be able to see all these

Sue T asked : 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. When I was in England in April I bought a couple of t-shirts at Sainsbury's. When I got home, I found that one of them was a little low

Hi all, I so agree with Jean's sentiment. I too have not only a 'lace display bossom'. but also 'lacemakers bottom'. ;D) And as you can see more chins than can be found in a Chinese telephone directory. This was what I was intending to send earlier, but was dropped off my email by Hotmail.

Kate is purportedly 100 lbs. and at 5'10, that is very thin, even for a model.  I am that height myself, and with a fashion design background and knowledge of modeling, etc. that standard is typically 125 lbs. and a tough weight to maintain at that height.  As mentioned, she is a UK 6, which is a

Malvery, That sounds lovely, but I dont think I have any nice enough t-shirts around to show off beautiful lace to its best, so perhaps I need to keep my eyes open, or look at my wardrobe a bit better:-) Do you find fine lace washes better or bigger grid ? Well off to finish the dishes before

Dear Nathalie and other spiders the most immediate connection I can think of is that Mozart's mother is said to have made lace. There is a portrait of her holding up a piece of lace as if she is proud of it (see Google images). As others have said, that was the great age of lace in dress - I

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 thread. Malvary in Ottawa, where I've

For me it's not the lace that the people wear but the fact that lace is in the way that it is made musical.   For sometime I've thought that the scoring for music is very much like our prickings.   And the way that I manipulate the bobbins is for me similar to playing any stringed instrument or
