Thank you to everyone who put my mind at rest re the quiet time on the list. I am so jealous of all the conventions and other lace-ins in USA, Australia and UK. It must be wonderful to have all these top-notch teachers to choose from and to keep up-to-date with everthing in the lace world. That is

Hi Beth. I think that things work. But, I suppose that the good spring weather has driven us away from the computer... We have had such a long and cold winter in Spain, that we are enjoying the sun as soon as it rises. But... I keep making lace. And your Cluny project looks magnific. You remind

Hi Alice, I purchased some silk from Pipers a few years ago and their '90 Silk Floss' seems to me to be very similar to the silk used for Maltese lace. I found the pale cream was almost a perfect match for some of my Maltese lace, however I do realize that not all Maltese lace is the same
