Dear Jeri
I have not responded to your first email because I'm still sitting in
the afterglow of one of the best lace experiences of my life! it is so
difficult to put into words everything about the Brugge lace festival.
I think I will take the time and write it all out from my perspective
As promised I will start by letting people know about the workshops that
were held from the 13-16 August as part of the festival. As with all
lace events we had to register for workshops before were arrived. I
chose Valenciennes.
I chose to stay in a small hotel about 1.5km from the workshop
The Gutterman sulky varigated are really beautiful when used with
Christine Marecki's patterns of flowers

I have recently signed up for an e-Membership of the Lace guild, and so
far so good got the two Lace magazines for the year thus far. And if I
get a membership number I will be even more happy.

I’m in Sydney and at present the answer is nothing at present. There are
charities such as the Salvation Army, St Vincent de Paul and the Red Cross who
are actively supplying those worse affected with the essentials. As the crisis
extends we do not know how many people will be affected and how
to the family?
If so please contact me off the list.
Thank you

Many years ago I bought a second hand book on Russian Tape lace and am now
finally going to work some of the patterns.
My problem is that I think it is written in Dutch. The diagrams are excellent
and the patterns are self explanatory.

Dear Spiders
I have just recieved emails from two spiders with odd links to them. Needless
to say I did not go any further, simply delegated both emails to the bin.
There seem to be quite a few hackers out there.
For the record I never send out links to any sites. So if you get anything

I am wondering since there have been quite a few changes to the way we do
things post COVID, should we also change how we operate?
I personally love the email exchanged we have had over the years and I love
how much I have learnt and people whom I have met.
So I am suggesting that we keep Arachne

were made using hand spun linens which have long fibres.
