RE: [lace] Used book prices - The Lace Guild's book offerings

Hi Jane, You seem to be well versed in things pertaining to the Lace Guild. I am an IOLI member and have considered joining the Lace Guild, also, but I live in the US. In addition to supporting such a worthwhile organization, their magazine is quite nice. I've enjoyed some issues obtained through

Re: [lace] Used book prices - The Lace Guild's book offerings

I did something different this morning. I addressed my memo to Arachne, and typed my address in the "copy to" box. Maybe that triggered something causing my memo to be delivered to a wider audience? I'm now doing this again, to test it. Wow! Jane mentions internal office situations at
