Re: [lace] On Arachne since 1996
I cannot recall just when I joined, but it has been a very long time! Probably 1990s. And like Nancy I did not trust online storage. Still donât in fact...thatâs why I keep,so,many backups! -- Martha Krieg (Michigan) - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

[lace] On Arachne since 1996
I think I must have joined in 1996 because I'd already been on the list quite a while when we had our get-together in Nottingham. I was still a relatively new lacemaker when I joined so you all were a godsend. I can check how early, actually, because I even printed out some of the early posts, not yet entirely comfortable with electronic-only storage! Wow, things sure change in a quarter of a century. Pleased Arachne is still going strong. It's such a valuable resource.

Re: [lace] On Arachne since 1996
I think it was 1996 when I joined; not right at the beginning, but not much later. I vividly remember how awesome it was to be able to get lacemaking information directly from real people who actually knew what they were talking about. How long ago that was - 25 years in physical time, but a million years in Internet time.

Re: [lace] On Arachne since 1996
Hello all, I have been a lurker for many years now, but I joined in 1996 or 1997. I didn't realize it was 25 years already. Wow. Hi Bev!

[lace] On Arachne since 1996
Hi everyone Changing the subject line from spam emails, better for searching the archive! Quoted below I have the others and part of Shirley T's message but not the bit from Liz, also a '96-er (big grin) I joined later that year, then there was discussion of a first year commemorative bobbin, didn't order one, but did the next year and a few more after that. Those were heady days LOL. Bev on beautiful Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada On Sat, Apr 27, 2019 at 10:35 AM Angel wrote: > David and fellow Arachnids! > > Yeah! 25 Years is a very long time!
