Now here's dedication for you. I lent my micrometer to Eve Morton, who measured
the diameters of all her mixed up pins to get them sorted in sizes again.

Hi Arachnids
I know there is an embargo on advertising ones own books but this email is not
about advertising but about warning lacemakers.
My book âAll about making â Floral Bucks Point Laceâ has only been
available since 21 October 2013 and there is already one available on ebay at

Hi Arachnids
As a self-publishing author I give a discount to suppliers. However, the
supplier has to pay carriage, which on heavy books, is substantial. Also when
sending outside the EU there are usually import duties for them to pay and
local sales tax. This will probably increase the price

Don't know. She'd have to tell you that, but I think she gave me the micrometer
back at the following week's lacemaking group.

The way the digest works is that it sends out messages once the 'file'
reaches a certain size. It was created in the days when most people were
paying by the second for downloads. Some still are, which is one of the
reasons we are asked to trim our posts. If you were to even attempt to

On Monday I received two magazines - the Nov./Dec. issue of Piecework
the Fall 2013 issue of I.O.L.I. Bulletin.
Now I'm waiting for the UK Lace one to arrive.
I realized that the October 2012 issue (#148) had an article about a
Halloween quilt made with 12 lace motifs applied to the pumpkins.
I have just received 100gm of 2 ply silk that is from ebay

Thank you Jane. All we can do is keep alert and letting new lacemakers be
aware.
Happy lacemaking All

The way the digest works
There was once a list of suppliers on the Arachne website. It was removed
due to obsolescence, and rightly so. However, this would be a good place to
list suppliers of all sorts globally, and self publishers so they can be
found. Thus the space on the digest would be preserved. Or even
Hi Alex and fellow spiders,

Actually there's a bit of confusion about the
shipping etc. charges for the copies of Alex's book already on ebay:  if
the buyer is in the US, the shipping charges are only $3.43 for economy

Hello All! Following advice from Adele Bev, I measured my pins as 26x.6.
They are still a mystery as I don't know what they are used for. They were in
an orphan box of mixed supplies including an inexpensive foam Honiton pillow
many sizes of white thread but my friend wasn't learning
Mine are that size and they're used for torchon and bedfordshire

Thanks to all who have responded to the pin question, it has been very
helpful. Acting on arachne sourced advice I decided to try to use a box of
pins that I had from Holly Van Sciver which were labeled Bohin 30 x .85

Import Taxes? For Books? In the U.S.?
One thing I've noticed in these posts about inflated prices is references
to paying import charges. I have obtained many books from overseas -- and
NO DUTY was charged on them. Here is how books come home to me from other
nations:

Thanks Sue! You other Arachne members are going to get me organized in spite
of myself. Love your tatting blog--just the right blend of chat info! Have
sent a link to tatty friends who haven't yet taken the plunge on Arachne.

I have had similar issues with wire, and checked in with a wire maker. I
found out that the core wire measurement is what is used. For example, a
supa wire which is a copper core, at least one coat of color, and then a
coat of silver is still gauged at the copper core size. Two or more
coatings
I find that when looking for books, the best place for me to start at is
Google search and then shopping. Then I go from there. Sometimes I will
put in an alert on either Google or eBay for an item. I have found some
good deals that way. Shopping around seems to work for me. Some gently

Unless there is something beyond page 2 of 4901, the cite you provided,
which is highly unlikely, it is rather clear and unambiguous that books are
free. At least that's what I think. They could hide something squirly
someplace else, but the language is so clear in the chart... lrb, Esq.
OK - my LaceNews Pinterest site is not about pins for making lace. It is a
social internet site - think of it as a series of bulletin boards where you
that you might pin photos too. Except that the board is a folder on the
internet site, and the 'pin' is a picture from some website that you post
