I'm following this thread with great interest and am about to start my
first virtual lace class as a student. It is needle lace instead of bobbin
lace, so it will be interesting to see what challenges are unique to lace
made in the hand vs on a pillow. Somehow students will need to arrange

But how do you do as a teacher? imagine you have 8 students making the lace

doing something wrong. But you cannot take their pillow... They have good
diagrams, and pictures of the finished lace
I think there are a couple of other advantages to online classes. It might be
possible to get teachers from far away to give classes in the Americas. Also,
in Europe and Britain, where there are many more lace makers, weekly classes
are common. Zoom plus a phone camera makes that relatively
Hello all,
I realize I need to clarify my response to the virtual lace classes.
As a student, I have a large monitor, such as a desktop, laptop, or iPad
in front of me to watch the demonstrations, and for the teacher to see me.
Then I have a second camera, such as a phone, mounted over my lace
We began with Meet. It worked well until we tried
to mount a second camera to show bobbin lace pillows.
It is challenging to get a second camera mounted
without the issue of feedback on Meet. It can be
done, but adds an extra layer of frustration for
the students.
Zoom seems to have addressed

Some of my random thoughts on virtual lace classes: Having both taught and
taken several virtual lace classes, I think they are here to stay. There
are both positives and negatives as with most things in life. I like that
people can join from anywhere in the world without the expense and time
Dear Devon,
How wonderful! I am so thrilled for you!!! I knew it would be a splendid
success.

Many of the photos in the "Lace, not Lace" album on our Flickr site,

of the exhibition for Angharad Rixon.

If you havenât yet got to New Jersey to see the contemporary lace exhibit,
which Devon has so carefully and successfully curated it is well worth the
visit.
The Urchins are going to be there till 10/10 (extended dates). However they
do look as if they need a good wash â and, as I expected
that the turn out would be
on the high side. However, it was very high, at about 500 people and
the museum director said she had never seen the museum like this
before. I am sure it is the biggest opening they ever had. Of course
the crowd was swollen by lace people who came from as far away as
Ireland

Hi Fellow Arachnids,
Have just received the Lace, not Lace catalogue and it is a delight to see,

I designed it in 2001 then 36 lacemakers from Norfolk Lacemakers worked on it
with me. It was finished in 5 months, then auctioned for Children in Need
where it raised £1,310 for the charity.
It took me to make one for myself 2 years
