Re: [lace] free lace books
Hi Jenny and interested Arachneans, It is interesting to know that the patterns of this book from Galicia are free to download. And that the book is a recopilation of patterns from the area of Galicia, a very famous area for its laces. They are mostly torchon and guipur types, and intended to be made with a coarse thread (Finca 20 or 30, for example). In this book the typical laces have been collected and redrawn with a computer, giving the possibility to make an edging, an insert, a little piece... with the same model. The intention of this book is letting everybody know the lace that is made there. I hope you all enjoy it. Best regards form Antje, in a sunny and warm Spain. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] Finishing a handkerchief
Thank you, Jacquie in Lincolnshire. After I sent the email, I googled my question, and came up with an arachne thread from 2004, where someone was giving a talk on the subject, and listed all of the books she knew of with information on the subject. I have one of them, but I much prefer a variety of instructions, as then I have the most choices, and the best combined explanations for my feeble brain. I am quite sure the internet has expanded lacemaking geometrically, simply because the resources are so easy to come by. Neither of my two major lace suppliers have the book, I would go to them first simply to support their business, nor does Amazon.com, BUT amazon.co.uk had a used copy for what I consider a relatively reasonable cost for a lace book, and I have ordered it there. I am a sucker for books, especially lace books, which tend to disappear after a while. No need to write for a catalog, and hope the place is still in business, or go to used bookstores in major cities hoping they had what I wanted, which wouldn't be so in the US, simply because of the dearth of lacemakers. Lyn in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, US, where it is a beautiful but cold morning, 12F, -10C, and hoping our New Zealand lacemakers are ok. I assume there are New Zealand lacemakers as well as Australian? -Original Message- From: laceandb...@aol.com Sent: Feb 23, 2011 4:02 AM To: lace@arachne.com Subject: Re: [lace] Finishing a handkerchief Find a copy of Mounting and Using Lace, by Jean Withers.

[lace] lace in jewelry tambour
Hello All! Just letting my fingers do some walking today while following links for point de Beauvais. I stumbled upon Christine, by hand on etsy. http://christinebyhand.blogspot.com/2010_08_22_archive.html There's info on tambour with a link to a tambour tutorial PLUS a how-to for imprinting lace in PMC (precious metal clay). This could be interesting with one of Sandi Woods letters on a necklace or different small bits made as links for a bracelet. Hmmm.

Re: [lace] free lace books
Thank you Jenny for the reminder of these beautiful publications. Catálogo Fíos e Cores is more of visual interest, unless one has shares in a thread company... A plotter-type printer with coloured inks, and a roll of wide paper will come in handy to print a pattern :p (we tried it at work) On 2/23/11, Jenny Brandis je...@brandis.com.au wrote: http://www.artesaniadegalicia.org/ga/web/descarga.php?ide=15pag=0 Catálogo Fíos e Cores They are very large files so unless you have broadband please allow HOURS to download these files.

Re: [lace-chat] Beethoven's 5th - amazing
Thanks for sharing that. I love the way he even holds his little finger elegantly on the baton (at least some of the time) and the enthusiastic ending when he loses the baton completely!
