Re: [lace] anniversary logo
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 are several more than capable of the job. Evidently there were other logos for Arachne on anniversaries past. Could someone take a picture of what there was and post it?

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
Hello Tamara (and everyone) (sent once only to T., oops) I think that using an iteration of Lenka's design is a great idea. I'm sure she would approve even if we used the original - that was the purpose of her design and it was freely posted at the time. As I recall the spider did look like a spider. You will surely receive lots of offers to post - here is mine.

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
Hello all, Speaking of lurkers... I am usually a lurker excepting those few times I think I can contribute to the list. There are not so many because of language (this there has been talking yet) and because the expertise of the members are just wider than mine. I am member of Arachne since year 1999 or 2000 , I do not remember exactly now if it was Janice Blair who made a spider that shared with the list with a sign of @. This put my mind to think about designing something in Witchstitch lace ( also called Hinojosa lace) I shared it with the list and this was the result: http://carolgallego.com/arachne.html Tamara, you were speaking of this design, not from Lenka .In fact I do not remember Lenka's.

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
Hello Carolina and everyone Thank you for reminding us of your a witch stitch @ spider! But I had Lenka's design on file for a while then did some housecleaning - glad that Tamara has her version. There are a few other spider designs collected at the Lace Fairy site although not all links still work.

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
I think that is a lovely design Carolina. It is maybe a bit big to go onto a bobbin, pin, flash drive etc., but I like it.

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
I like this design! It looks like it could be very versatile and it is so lacy it is not quite as icky as a real spider! I'm not sure if as a beginner I would be able to work it, but I think I could try, with a little help. Liz in sloppy wet and snowy Missouri.

Re: [lace] anniversary logo
Scans of the lace and the pricking have gone to Clay Blackwell (thanks, Clay! And thanks, Bev, for offering, but Clay offered first g), who said she'd upload them to Flickr, so everyone will be able to see them. It was *definitely* Lenka's design. I have Jacqui's spider -- she made me a brooch with it. I still wear it sometimes, though it gets tedious having to explain to everyone no, I didn't make it; I can't make anything that fie. And I printed off Carolina's at the time it was first posted, so I know which one is whose. Both Jacqui's design and Carolina's use the same concept: a lacy spider, with an @ for its belly. Lenka's is the other way around: an @ sign, with a spider in the center of the a. I can't remember whether hers had a web; mine does. Hers might not have had it, because she was designing for wire, which would have held the shape without any help. Mine's made in thread, and needed more structure. -- Tamara P Duvallhttp://t-n-lace.net/ Lexington, Virginia, USA (Formerly of Warsaw, Poland) - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
