[lace] Lace Magazines. etc.
Sorry to hear of Marionâs passing. Oh Dear! another lacemaker up on that cloud now. It is getting to be too full up there, so I hope everyone will stay down here for a lot longer! I have received 2 Lace Magazines in the last 2 days â Wonderful!! The first to arrive, yesterday, was the IOLI Bulletin, and today the Postie brought me the UK Lace magazine. â so I have some good reading to do tonight!! I must put my creative juices to work, and see if I can come up with an entry for next yearâs IOLI convention. We are hoping to be able to go, - and are tentatively planning the trip. Yes, I know.. Last year was our Last trip â but so was the year before that Fingers crossed for one more visit!!! Regards from Liz.

[lace] Lace Magazines
Yes the list has been quiet recently. I get the digest version, and there has been quite a gap since the last one. With regard to the Lace Guilds Publications, - Although we don't want the list to be filled with the "Me too" type messages, it would be nice if one person could mention when a UK Lace, IOLI Bulletin, or other regular publication arrives in their letter box, - so the rest of us know to look out for it. 3 (that I know of - including Me) were about 4 months late with the Spring Bulletin, I must say the Guilds are Excellent in replacing missing magazines, - promptly and without any hassle, - but sometimes we don't realize we are one missing. PostaL services are dismal these days, so we know we may have to wait a bit longer - for those of us in far-flung places! - but we don't want to miss out completely. I understand the Summer IOLI Bulletin Will come out - but not sure when, - the Autumn/Fall edition is about due too, now. I understand the Editor is ill, and I hope she has a full recovery.

[lace] Lace magazines and memberships
Thanks to Joepie for reminding me about Vuelta y Cruz - combining Spanish practice with lace definitely rates highly with me, so wanted to subscribe but couldn't afford to when it first started and had forgotten about it; subscription for this year now taken out :-) I'm also a Lace Guild member, can't give you a review of the April issue of Lace as it's been sitting unopened by my chair for a week, along with quite a pile of non-lace publications I'm behind on reading; too much to do, too little time - how I'm going to find time to read Vuelta y Cruz as well is a mystery :-( I find myself agreeing with both Jane & Joepie on the individual membership/shared subscriptions questions - of course we should support our lace organisations/publications by subscribing individually and encouraging others to do so, but where 2 individuals can't afford the whole membership fee/subscription surely it's better for everyone to have them club together and share one copy - at least the organisation gets one sub that way instead of none? Similarly where one individual can't justify the cost of an individual sub in terms of what they'll get back - that's probably an issue for some of us when considering subscribing to an overseas guild/publication where the postage rate pushes up the cost and we're too far away to benefit from any guild activities apart from the the magazine, and most of us don't have deep enough pockets to support more than our local/national group out of altruism. And of course, passing on or lending a recent-ish back copy of a guild magazine to a newer lacemaker can be a good "hook" to lead into the suggestion they join the guild...

RE: [lace] lace magazines/membership
Hi fellow Arachnids, The magazines I subscribe to are; Lace and the Young Lacemaker (both from the Lace Guild, UK) and Lacemaking (the magazine of the Lace Society, UK) with articles, book reviews, patterns & news from the world of lace. The Lace Express with patterns and eye candy but no articles at all. Vuelta y Cruz which is brilliant as it helps my Spanish study as it is written in Spanish and English. This has articles on lace, patterns as well as series of lessons for a particular type of lace. And lastly but not least OIDFA which lacks the frequent patterns found in the others but which has more internationally wide ranging articles than the others. All of them have things to offer which are useful to lace makers. I know it seems a lot, but I share with my best friend who is also a lace maker ;-) Happy lace making (and lace-reading) Joepie, East Sussex, UK, where spring has sprung at last. The temperatures are rising nicely and we have had a couple of really nice (dry) days. HURRAY! I have just joined OIDFA so I am looking forward to getting their publication. Other than that I read the IOLI Bulletin and the Piecework.

What lace magazines and bulletins do people particularly enjoy reading? I've just sent in my membership to OIDFA, but am interested in additional publications.

I had wondered what had happened to The Lace Guild's letters page, and when I asked, I had the response that there hadn't been any letters sent in, and those that were had been passed on to the relevant people for response! Emails tend to be answered straight away, or forwarded to the relevant experts to answer, so it might be an idea if you do chose this method of communication to make it clear that your intention is for it to be published in the magazine concerned. Even the 'silly' questions have their place - not everyone knows the answers and beginners are sometimes afraid to ask (and experienced lacemakers too embarrassed!) Where book reviews are concerned, do check the magazine's policy. The Lace Guild have a team of reviewers for Lace, and the books reviewed are those which have been acquired for the library, so members know they can borrow them if they don't wish/can't afford to purchase. Most of the guild libraries welcome copies of new books - budgets for purchase are limited, and it isn't always easy to know when a self published book is available, especially those published in far flung places :-) In message AA4458ED184A43899E9E79C99D4454B6@Lacepc, Elizabeth Ligeti lizl...@bigpond.com writes Even a letter to the Editor with a pat on the back, or a grizzle about something would be OK!!

Yes, we all love to receive our magazines, but remember - Editors can only produce a good magazine if they have patterns and articles to print in them. If no-one sends in anything, then there will be just a lot of blank pages! So please, everyone, try to send something in occasionally to the Editor, - a book review, a pattern, an article about what your group is doing, - even a Dear Dorothy letter asking for help with some techniques, or where to access certain threads, etc. I try to offer one something to each of my Guilds each year. It does not always happen, but I try! Don't think My lace isn't good enough, or along those lines. Beginners like simple patterns, and are just as entitled to find one in the magazine as the more complicated designs!!

On Monday I received two magazines - the Nov./Dec. issue of Piecework the Fall 2013 issue of I.O.L.I. Bulletin. Now I'm waiting for the UK Lace one to arrive. I realized that the October 2012 issue (#148) had an article about a Halloween quilt made with 12 lace motifs applied to the pumpkins. Included were the patterns for an owl, a witch a vulture. I was looking forward to seeing the other patterns published, so I'm wondering if there will be some more patterns in the next issue? But do we have to wait for another 2 years for all the others?

Yesterday I received my Needle 'n' Thread magazine - from the Guild of Needlelaces, and today the postie has just delivered the UK Lace magazine, - so I have a continuing feast of lace!!! I have only openend the envelope so far, - and looked at the front cover - a beaut fan, and read the lovely poem on the back cover. I get to read the rest of the magazine tonight - more sweet, lacey dreams!!! What Would we do without these beaut magazines arriving every now and again?!! Hmmm! I must work on a contribution for this year. I try to do one contribution to each magazine each year. If everyone did one thing, there would be heaps of copy. A book review, an article, photo, pattern, - something. I am sure more people have something they can share. I am in 5 Guilds (do I have an addiction?) so I need to get my thinking cap on to get something for each one. Maybe I better buy some more books, and do some reviews!!

Re: [lace] Lace magazines
Hello Liz and everyone, Liz, this is a generous goal! I am sure more people have something they can share, too, with their lace magazine(s) of choice. I like the idea of buying a book to review!

Dear fellow Arachneans, Today is Saturday after being empty all week, our letter box had 2 items just for me! One was the OIDFA Bulletin the other Australian Lace. The OIDFA Bulletin has lots of interesting articles. One story is of how the Canadian Quilt of Belonging came to be. Margot Walker has written an excellent article there are photos of 4 blocks for the countries of Belgium, Brazil, Malta Paraguay, that feature a piece of lace. For those that missed the mention of this on Arachne last year, the web-site is: http://www.invitationproject.ca/ where you can view read all about the individual blocks. Other stories are about an Ethnological Museum in Prague, a small lace collection in the Civic Museum of History Art in Trieste, Italy, lacemaking in Crete also in Croatia, a Bucks pattern for a round mat edging from UK lacemaker Bee Barford. My copy of Australian Lace was a little creased, but has the patterns from the previous issue reprinted due to printer problems. There are some lovely bookmarks edgings by Olwyn Scott Robin Hueppauff. Kath Shadbolt, who I met last August, has shown how a coloring book illustration simple tape lace, can be used to produce a Beaked Coralfish. And there is a pattern for a tatted bag named Anastasia. Lots of lovely reading to get me through the next few weeks, while I wait for the snow to start melting.
