Re: [lace] Sewing Out

Hi, I have been using fray check for nearly 40 years but as Joepie says, do a double knot on each pair. Dip a pin in the Fray check bottle and just touch the middle of each knot individually. Leave strictly alone, about 30 minutes, before touching it. My lace was going out to up to 31 shows (

Re: [lace] ADMIN: Survey Request - please send privately

Please don't leave. I used to be on Arachne but it got not nice. I left. After many years I have come back. It isn't as much fun but if interesting people leave it will not get better and maybe fold. We need less drawn out fussing, more David emails and a bit of humor. Arachne is very dry now.

Re: [lace] Supporting young lacemakers

I totally agree. I have perhaps or at least one of the largest number of Torchon lace patters that I sell at Biggins. After you have made your design and the lace its self so you know it has no problems, you have an item to sell for perpetuity. To make lace and to even charge 50p per hour the

Re: [lace] spanish lace pins

It makes me think of when I did demonstrations with my lace. People would be stood looking and I would hear some says " she knows what to by the codes on the bobbins" I would have had to have a mind like a computer . I then spangled all my bobbins in green but it didn't help! Vivienne > On 16

[lace-chat] Re: [lace] I have pics for the Divider pins

We at Biggins used to make and sell strivers. Short pins with seed beads covering most of the body. I was told by a very old lacemaker who,is no longer with us, that when lace was being made by families that was often ordered it was to check on and speed up the lacemaker who was slacking!

David has told me he is still around, I am delighted. I could do with a bit of cheer. David do you remember years ago you bought one of our remembrance bobbins? Ebony with a crucifix carved in it. I think it might have been for Princess Diana but not sure. ( I am Vivienne from Biggins )

Re: [lace-chat] Blue Film

Yes we do offer laminates which are very popular. If you buy the Matt laminates in the right thickness you don't need to prick them. You go straight through the laminate. Also, for our customers we copy the pattern they are getting onto a pale yellow so, as if you had covered it with blue film,

Re: [lace-chat] Re-assurance Please .....

Please don't be put off by being told it will be painful after. Not necessarily. I was a nurse involed with hip replacements and have many friends who have had them. Two friends have had both hips done. Only one complained of after pain, she also did not exercise and has not had a good result.

I went many many years ago and was distressed to see they took large pieces of lace apart to sell in smaller sections. Vivienne Sent from my iPad On 10 Oct 2012, at 17:53, Julie Ourom cro...@northwestel.net wrote: I was in Honiton a year or so back, spent a weekend there. I thought I wrote
