So many years, how did that happen! Happy Anniversary, I raise my bobbins to all my fellow lacemakers :-) . I've recently joined the facebook group 'Bobbin Lacemakers' and I have to say, I think Arachne is much, much more useful. It is sooo much more informative. The facebook group seems to

David, What I do for Jeri's messages, and might work for you with Devon's, is subscribe to both the individual messages and the digests. I quickly scan the digests to see if I've missed any messages, so I read Jeri's late if she hasn't bcc'd me, but I see them in full eventually. HTH, Nancy
