Haven't had the time to do more than leaf through the issue, so won't spoil everyone else's pleasure, by revealing any more secrets. This gag order on discussion of the IOLI Bulletin has certainly spoiled my pleasure. I used to get the occasional day-brightening pat on the back when it came out. Yesterday, a friend called me to discuss an article appearing in the newspaper. Far from finding that it spoiled my pleasure in reading the newspaper, I found the article twice as enjoyable for being able to discuss it with a friend. Perhaps those people who find a publication ruined by discussion of it could refrain from reading e-mails titled New IOLI Bulletin and those of us who enjoy discussing publications and expressing gratitude to those who put them out could discuss it with wild abandon. Good Work, Debra! Lovely issue. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into it. I think the additional eight pages is a positive development. I am sorry I sent you the background of the cover in bit-map format. I see you surmounted that obstacle heroically. Tamara, nice Windrose 2. The color reproduction of it on the inside back cover is breathtaking, and how do you think of these intricate thread paths? What a nice Goldfinch/Distlefink on the cover. The design process of the Little Point de Gaze fan described by Paula Harten is very informative. There is a photograph of Arachne member Alice Howell at the exhibit she put on in Oregon. Good work, Alice. Oregon is the richer for your efforts and now I know what you look like. Good heavens, Christine and David Springett's antique bobbin collection is going to be sold at auction. l better book my ticket to London...
