[lace] Convention table showcase

[Sally Jenkins]

I think an Arachne table at the IOLI convention is a great idea. *Because
of the Arachne list*, I located and subsequently met a lacemaker during my
trip to Bulgaria, and I wrote a lengthy article about her that appeared in
the most recent IOLI Bulletin.

(Followup on that: the Bulletin editor sent me an extra copy, which I
mailed to Bulgaria; I saw a photo on the Bulgarians' SediankaTA Facebook
page with several of their local craftspeople looking at that issue of the
Bulletin!)

It's been fun to participate in the ornament and bookmark exchanges too,
and some representative photos from those would make a nice display at the
convention.

Regards,
Sally in overcast western Oregon

do you have a power drill?  mine is a little $10 one from Walmart and you
can use it to wind bobbins by putting the bobbin in the space where the
drill bit goes.  i got a larger one but it is harder because it is a bit
too powerful.  the little rechargeable one does a nice job and isn't too
bulky.  sorry, i forgot about this one.  i only have these three.  if you
want photos or such, let me know as i will gladly share.

if you go on eBay and search for bobbin winders, there is a guy in Utah who
lists a small wooden one that is a dream for about $15.  i have purchased
two - one for me and one for a friend.

the other one i have is Plexiglas and is made by a guy in Australia.  Holly
Van Sciver used to carry his as well but not sure she still does.  it is
even smaller and very rugged.

if you need more info, let me know and i will help research and get more
details.  these are the two i have had for 16 years.

RE: [lace] bobbin winders

[Agnes Boddington]

Does anyone have the name of the German manufacturer/supplier?
Agnes Boddington
Elloughton UK

There is a wonderful winder made in Germany.  It is made of wood and there
is a power-pack that plugs in.  For those of us in the US, the maker
supplies the power pack for our AA batteries.  It is very lightweight, takes
very little space when storing or packing, and best of all is very quiet, so
you can wind while watching TV!

I know that Holly carries this, but you might want to check Snowgoose as
well to compare cost as well as shipping!

Hi Helen,

Your memory isn’t playing tricks - it’s Lutac lace named after Lucienne 
Tack-van Maldere,  the person who developed it. She wrote a book called Lutac 
Relief which has what I always think of as a cauliflower on the cover. In her 
instructions the padding is covered with cloth stitch. Karen Marie Iversen from 
Denmark also uses the technique for jewellery and she covers the padding with 
half stitch which means that the padding threads are visible and become part of 
the design (there are patterns in her book Modern Lace Jewellery).

[lace] Lutec (?) lace

[H M Clarke]

Hi there, oh knowledgeable ones. 

I had the privilege to go to Anchorage for a lace class way back in, I think, 
1998. I did Bruges but I seem to remember that a few people were learning lutec 
(?) lace. I think it was a bobbin lace that made use of padding techniques from 
some needle laces. I have a mental picture (if I could do those, a topic for a 
future post) of them laying loads of short pieces of thread where they wanted 
it thicker. Have I totally confused you all yet? Anyway, I don't remember ever 
hearing of this lace since then. Did I completely make up this memory or is 
there such a lace? If the latter then was it just a short term 'fad' or does it 
have any history?

[lace] Bookmark exchange

[J-D Hammett]

Hi fellow Arachnids,

My grateful thanks to Marion Goard for the lovely, variegated light blue,
Torchon bookmark. It has been beautifully made and was accompanied by two
postcards to give a flavour of where she lives. A lovely idea.

I have sent a personal thank you to Marion as well as an apology for the fact
that my contributions will only just make the deadline. Sorry, to Laura de
Bruyn as well for being tardy, but sometimes life gets in the way of things
you enjoy doing.

Happy lacemaking to all,

Joepie in East Sussex where it seems to be getting a little warmer. Hurray
