[lace] LACE #145
I am so pleased that my copy of LACE #145 has arrived today. Ann Dyer's article Playing with Spiders is very interesting. And lots more stuff to read, Pene in a very cold Tartu, Estonia (-12C at 12.00) - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] LACE #145
I got mine yesterday too. Went to my knitting group last evening and showed them the pics of the knitted fans. I think they want me to look for some stir sticks while I'm in England. I haven't seen the loopy ones here. Malvary in Ottawa where it has been a roller-coaster week, one day warmer, next day cold. I think snow is forecast for this afternoon but only 2cm but with a flash freeze to follow. Very cold temperatures over the weekend. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachne.modera...@gmail.com.

Re: [lace] Spiders
Congrats, Susan! Moving lace up on a pattern is very survivable. I'm proud of you. As to spiders... the basic one is easy to learn and remember. Maybe even a variation or two, but I would also have the directions with me if I were alternating a number of different ones. And, yes, there are many different spiders. I know of two books written just about spiders. We should get together. I made a hat band with different spiders all along it. It would go well with your belt. Alice in Oregon -- where my new kitchen is supposed to be installed today and all finished by Tuesday. (Knock on wood for luck.) - Original Message - From: hottl...@neo.rr.com My spider bookmark pattern became a belt by repeating the 8 different spider motifs 5 times. I still can't believe that I moved the strip several times lived to tell the tale! Unfortunately after all that practice, I still need to use the directions to make each spider. Which begs the question--is there a point at which spiders become second nature? I can see memorizing one or two, maybe three, but good grief there are lots of spiders out there! - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Hi Malvary The stirrers are usually used in 'take away' type areas... motorway service areas etc. the wooden sticks are available from places like Starbucks.

Can I also add that I'm very proud that my lace group's display is featured (even though I didn't contribute), especially the lovely piece on the back of the magazine by the much-missed Sue Willoughby.

[lace] Lace Bookmark Exchange
Hello all, While organizing the Christmas exchange this last year I was asked about a book exchange by quite a few newer members who did not feel they were ready for the Christmas exchange. It has been several years since the last bookmark exchange and after consulting with Jenny Brandis I have decided to organize a bookmark exchange. Sign ups will run from March 1st through the 20th. Partner assignments will be emailed out the 1st of April. (Yes I will include email addresses this time.) Mailings to partners should be no later than May 20th. The rules will be the same as with the Christmas Exchange with pictures being sent to Jenny Brandis to archive on the site. Please remember to tell her where your pattern comes from. I will send out a sign up notice the first of March. I hope we have lots of participates.

[lace] Sandi's wensite
Hi Sandi Well done. Like Cathy I have always loved your work since I saw your shell in the competition, one of those pieces I would love on the wall facing my stairs so I would look at it every day and enjoy it. Keep going, we love your work. Happy lacemaking Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
