Gentle Spiders,
I received a beaded Torchon Christmas tree on a card from Jean Barrett - her
own design. Unfortunately I haven't joined the digital photography era, so the
picture is still on the film in my camera. It's very pretty, maybe eventually
you'll get to see it! Thank you Jean.
I have just received a picture to pass on to all, of a white skin, blonde
haired little boy, my guess is around two years old, cuts to his face, and a
bandaged right hand, wearing a pinkish top, Christmas tree in the far right
hand corner, and he is sitting possibly in a large hall or very large

I've been reading with interest, all the postings about wearing lace as I am

pattern that Bev had in the fall Canadian Lacemaker Gazette which she
suggested for cuffs, but I reduced the width by removing

the beauty of the lace, and how it is presented. The gold collar

mention when they see me
Before you aim that machine-gun (pardon the pun) at me, could we stop

Dear Arachnes,
After a long discussion with Devon today, I've decided to tell you about
MagnaPin Jewelry Fasteners, which might meet a need lace wearers have. Two

These are for jewelry, and mean you would not have to pin through lace.
