Well we all now know that once these images are out on the internet we cant retrieve them but I am so pleased that it also inspired you as her work and help inspired me. Normally my brain and my life and lace is worked symmetrical but this is almost the only time it saw this different angle, so I am pleased with it and I might just bring the pattern out again and make it up for my two very special sisters, so this piece keeps giving and giving. I must choose a different colour and make a small change I think. To be honest I have struggled around Christmas for the last three years for various reasons so havenât taken part in the exchanges and dont actually remember if I saw this before or not. Grief and age taking their toll a little so I am pleased I have now looked and been reinspired, but I hope that if you use this again you will give me credit for the original design. Sue T Dorset UK
Dear Sue, I do hope that you claimed credit when you saw it back in 2017 the first time, because I definitely believe in giving credit where credit is due. I am pretty sure, in fact, that I did learn it was your design and that I wrote to you then. In any event, I love the design and have made some other variations on it since. At my library we have a photocopier that allows us not only to enlarge or shrink, but even to manipulate the x-axis and the y-axis separately, so I have made a few of the same in "long and skinny" (110% taller than original but only 90% wide) and am planning on making some short and stout (110% wider than original and 90% of original height)! One of the biggest drawbacks of Pinterest is that you usually can never find the source :-( Happy lacing, Sally Jenkins Arachne 2017 Christmas Card exchange, made by Sally Jenkins in the USA for Sue Duckles in the UK, taken from Pinterest is a design created by me in approx 2009 when I first began using some of the lace software. I suppose I must be flattered that someone liked it enough to show it on Pinterest and again that Sally liked enough to make it for Sue. It is strange how our own designs can jump off a screen when you see them.
