My April copy of 'Lace' has just arrived, and to put Tamara's mind at rest - the
pattern adaption is by Sue Babbs and is a brooch pattern adapted from
the centre of Tamara's 'water lily' design in 'Lace' 107.
I hope you are not all waiting too long for your copies.

Dear lacemakers,
I just got my supply list for the Russian Tape Lace workshop with Thea
de Roode in Tønder. She asks for 3 types of thread, Linen 60/2, DMC
Mouline, and Pearl #5.
Is DMC Mouline the 6 stranded embroidery thread, that we call embroidery
floss?

Hello Irene,
Am I right in thinking that Russian tape lace done is usually done in

tape-laces
Hi everyone
I'd like to hear from anyone who has used YLI silk (on the spool) for
bobbin lace. It is available at quilt suppliers. Was it pleasant to work
with, how did it stand up to use - when I use Gutermann's, it unplies on
me.
Thanks for any info.

Dear Bev,
YLI silk is very strong and works up extremely well. I have used it and
love it. I like it so much I am tempted to use the 100 size for all my

Excellent endorsement - I think I'd like to try it for Bucks then - what

might be suitable.

Oh, this is good to know
Thanks,
