I'm late to the table, as usual (life interferes) but a few more ideas: Ulrike Löhr's: "ABC" (self-published, in 1999) has numbers, placed on a 45deg angle. Sally Barry's "Flower Grounds in Point Ground Lace" (self published, 2008) has numbers, too, IIRC. I can't seem to lay my hands on the volume to check but, as I remember it, the numbers are "reverse", that is empty spaces, set in PG Ground. Sally's website: http://www.gis.net/~scbarry/index.html And, why not blow my own trumpet, since you only want a 50... I had a pattern for a five and a zero -- Russian tape, with raised gimp; individual numbers, not "grounded" -- published in the IOLI Bulletin vol. 23 #3 (Spring 2003), when IOLI was celebrating its 50th anniversary. -- Tamara P Duvall http://t-n-lace.net/ Lexington, Virginia, USA (Formerly of Warsaw, Poland) - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
