Those of you on chat may not know, but Hannah and Amanda Moad have just lost all their lace equipment in a house fire. I asked if someone might be willing to act as a collection point for replacing their equipment for them.
I've now received a personal message from Karen Sartain, who has trouble posting because of the HTML issue. Karen only lives a couple of hours away from Hannah and Amanda. She has given me her permission to give out her address so that if any of you do have a contribution to make towards restoring Hannah and Amanda's lace equipment, you can send it to her, and she'll make sure they get it. On the other hand, I do know that Jenny in Australia, did enjoy choosing some of her own replacement equipment, and Tamara's suggestion of arranging a "gift certificate" with a supplier for them is also a very good one. Personally, I'd suggest that if you go down that path, write to Karen anyway and tell her which supplier and how much, so that the information can be passed on to the girls. Karen's address is: 305 Fox Chase, Arnold. MO 63010 USA I know that Jenny really appreciated all the support during a terrible time last year, so how about we see if we can support these two in a similar way??
