Re: [lace] Updated Christmas Card Exchange Announcement.
To all the newbies on lace and those who feel that they couldn't possibly share their work can I just say that every exchange I have taken part in, I have treasured the item I was sent. I adore every effort regardless of precision, competency or knowledge. Each piece has been made by someone who is passionate about their craft and that is what matters. Please, please take part.

Re: [lace] For all new to the Christmas Card Exchange.
I'll agree with others on here that say please don't let a 'lack of experience' stop you from entering!! I entered for the first time last year and have now got 3 'new friends' from it!! We all love receiving 'hand made' gifts of either a card, a bauble, or some such thing and everyone starts somewhere We've all started from the same place just some have been doing it for longer than others!! Apart from that, it's the 'giving' that counts!!! So come on into the exchange along with those who have already put their name forward Sue in East Yorkshire where it's been sunny today!! - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
