I've decided to play. I've sent the question as to whether it's the book or
photocopy. when he says its a photocopy then I'll report him for copyright
breach as copies are for personal use only and can't be resold.
Let's see what happens.
The bobbins are terribly over priced.

Hello all
A dear friend of mine called Daphne Dade a lacemaker died last October. I know
her things are being sold on E'bay at extortionanet prices. Wooden bobbins
books etc. one is a photo copy of a pattern out of one of Geraldine Stotts
book,he is selling at £12.99. Please anyone on the
I asked the seller if these were the original book / magazine or photocopies
and he came back with this answer:
Hello, these are just scraps, mainly photocopies. Random mix. They were
important enough to keep, by the Lacemaker who owned them, so i thought the
public might like them. This is the
Update. Ebay take threatening behaviour very seriously and the nice lady I
just chatted with has gathered all my emails from the seller and is going to
censor him for his behaviour.
The book in question is available on amazon for 12 or 13 pounds and he is
selling photocopies. You can't
This morning, I was looking at Joan Masterson's Ethnic Sampler book, and
came across something some of our lacemakers may not know: Scoring fabric.
When you have a piece of linen and want to square it up and fold the edges
under, it helps to score the reverse side of the fabric. This is
Looks like Ebay are true to their word. Just searched for items by this seller
and there are none.

Hello, all -
I am definitely getting excited about attending IOLI Convention next week!
 Hope there are many others out there feeling the same!
I was going to wait until arrival to pursue this one, but after reading the
last digest with a post referring to this yet again, I've decided I just must
I have found the seller's listing, and there are nine or ten bobbins listed
plus a couple of small books related to lace. Nothing remarkable, and
certainly overpriced.

Hello,
I will be in Bulgaria for the Koprivshtitsa Folk Festival next month. Does
anyone know if there will be lace makers there (and how to find them)? The
festival does not seem to have a website; the main attraction is folk
dancing but I would expect other folk arts too.

I too had looked. Some items are still there but they have a very long
time - 26 days and 29 days for a couple I looked at. Commemoration bobbin
for York £9.95. Look for 'Daphne Collection' and 'Wood lace bobbins' as
your search criteria.

The seller removed the item. I believe they were hoping that in taking it off
for sale that they wouldn't gain the wrath of ebay however the emails they sent
me are in my profile and the ebay chat captured them so it's a no go.
Apparantly you can't hide from ebay.

I don't know about bobbin lace makers. But there is a kind of needle lace made
there, called Kene. It uses the same knot as Turkish oya/Armenian knotted
needlelace. Needlelacetalk has one member who makes that kind. But she lives
in Switzerland. You would have to join needlelacetalk to
Hello Sally,
I have just spent a day with a Bulgarian lacemaker friend who came to visit
me in Spain. She is called Bistra Pisancheva (

interesting lace, not at all conventional. She is also very good making
