There is still something in our mailing system truncating some messages coming to me via lace@arachne.com.
All I received of Ruth's message just sent was a "b" in the body of the message, so I looked it up in the archives, and as the subject is so interesting, thought I would pass it on here in plain text so others that this happens to might read it. I've never seen bobbins like this before, Ruth, and they are very interesting. It would be good to hear from anyone who has used them. Ruth's message read: I am shamelessly copying this link from a Facebook site of which I am a member: http://madentelle.blog4ever.com/ma-dentelle-chantilly-avance. Have a look at the unusual bobbins in the first and especially the third photo. Here is the link to the maker's website http://fsegevaudent.free.fr/lesfuseauxspecid.html. The first two photos on the left are of similar bobbins. The top photo on the right (of the two rows of photos of his work) is a short video showing how to shorten the thread. I am intrigued! Has anyone used this type of bobbin? I am wondering if this could be the biggest development in bobbin design since... well, since forever.
