Hi Arachnids,
Would it be possible to make the logo a lace spider rather than one as
realistic looking as the pin in Joyâs scan? I have two friends who get the
heeby-jeebies at the sight of just a picture of a spider, another friend who
is frightened of spiders, and would have to keep that logo

Transfers can be made for ironing onto fabric. Then they could be used on
cover cloths, T-shirts etc. no matter our type of lace we could use them
Again, these would be light, easy and inexpensive to post. The person having

It is better to couch the outline before pinning the work onto the pillow

Hi Arachnids,

I think logistically we can do all sorts of things, although it would be
nice to have a unifying logo. Who will come up with this logo? And if
there is more than one suggestion, how will it be chosen, or will we again
have a choice. With all the creative talent on this list, I am sure there
One suggestion that flew by and wasn't commented on, was a mouse pad. I
don't think they will go out of style for a while like the flash
drive/memory stick/thumb drive might.
Of course - the mouse pad doesn't get seen by others so we aren't 'spreading
the word', but this is OUR anniversary
Trying again. When I tried yesterday, I was told my message was rejected as
