Hello Carol
I don't think any of us were carping - I for one certainly wasn't :o)
I'm sure we all enjoyed the program, that doesn't stop us as
lacemakers showing our interest and knowledge of lace and lace making
with its traditions and history.
With best wishes
Diana
I didn't feel that this discussion was about complaints, just enjoying
that lacemaking and some of it's history had been given such prominence
on prime-time tv, and also sharing our extra bit of knowledge that
enabled us to see the mistakes. I have learned something about the
different types of lace from this discussion, and also that a lacemaker
would probably stick to one type of lace if she was making it for sale -
not something I'd realised. How lucky we are to be able to do this for
fun and to be able to try any tradition that we want, rather than having
to struggle to make a living from lacemaking. (tho I do acknowledge
that some of you do teach and sell lace professionally)
