[lace] Thanks

[Sherri Butler]

I have been away from my computer  or would have written sooner - many 
thanks to all of you who wrote to me onlist and off about economical 
lace pillows and books to begin with. I won't be able to start a project 
until after Christmas, but I am ordering a "one and only" pillow nad 
found one of the recommended books online at a great price - and I'm 
excited! You've all been most helpful!

I first got interested in bobbin lace many years ago - in the 1970s, 
when I was sill in my teens. In addition to buying some bobbins, I got 
some linen thread at that time too. I know that some of it is 140/2, 
which, I believe, is not made anymore. Am I right in thinking that I 
should save that thread for when I know what I'm doing? And, if so, what 
is a good thread to begin with? Cotton, I'm guessing, but what size?
