Re: [lace] Madame Goubaud's point lace book : instructions and patterns

2017-06-10 Thread Jeriames
Thanks, Lin.  
 
I have the original little book, and have put a copy of your note in  it.
 
It is something that I probably gave to Tess to scan into 
http://www.cs.arizona.edu/pattterns/weaving/lace.html  
 
The University of Arizona address failed 3 times just now, so I  cannot 
confirm.  I am swamped in lace correspondence and lace publicity  today, and 
cannot stop the momentum to investigate.   Perhaps someone else will help with 
this.  We have  to monitor and use the Arizona site.  It is a great lace  
research resource Arizona might take away from us at any time.

[lace] strange characters

2017-06-10 Thread Alex Stillwell
Hi Brenda

Just to let you know, your latest post on Arachne came up with the usual
strange characters. I am using Windows 8 and my server is talktalk. This is
proving a most interesting discussion and I am learning a lot about what I can
use and what I cannot. Incidentally, these problems do not affect the
usefulness or my pleasure in reading my Arachne Digests, long may they
continue to arrive.

My thanks to all involved.

Alex

Re: [lace] My Typo of University of Arizona's Address

2017-06-10 Thread Jeriames
For everyone's information.  Arizona is still alive and available to  solve 
our research problems.  Lately, I've noticed extra letters in my  typing, 
but did not catch this one.  Is my computer too fast, or are  fingers 
lingering on the keys?  This is something I must get under  control.  Could be 
from 
arthritis or fatigue.  
 
Please do not respond to this explanation on Arachne.  It is  off-topic.

Dear Jeri,


I thought that I recognized Mme Goubaud as something I had scanned.  And 
indeed, it is there as always.  The problem was that when you  typed in the 
address you made a little mistake, and computers are not  sympathetic!  If you 
check the address you posted, you will find that  there are three of the 
letter "t" in the word "patterns".  Try entering  it with the correct spelling 
and I'll bet you won't have any trouble.  Good luck!


Love, Tess

Hi All, I love this book but I'm not sure if everyone is aware that it's
tape lace - like Renaissance, Battenberg, etc. With the machine made tape.
 I must say the alphabet is rather amazing!

Jane in Vermont, USA where it's warmed up considerably but hasn't rained
for a day!!  A record for this spring.

2017-06-10 Thread Adele Shaak
Lin, thank you for letting us know. I do like the quality of the reproduction - 
paging through it is almost like having the copy in hand.

Battenberg can be very beautiful when well made by a talented amateur; I have 
seen lovely pieces in private collections.

Thanks for sharing, Lin.   Have downloaded it so I can read/study it
and perhaps learn a new technique.

[lace] 2017 Arachne Bookmark Exchange website

2017-06-10 Thread Jenny Brandis
G'day everyone,

 

The 2017 Arachne Bookmark exchange website is almost ready to be online (70
of the expected 79 pages are ready) as I am just waiting on the final 6
emails with scans/photos and details. Lin will be contacting those who I am
missing shortly.

 

The intention is to have the site go live next weekend so if you have not
got your scans and lace details in, please do so during the week.

[lace] I prefer the Arizona scans

2017-06-10 Thread Jenny Brandis
It was only when I was comparing the 2 sites work that  I really appreciated
just how much work Tess Parish had done removing all the background colour
from the scans, thus making it much more readable.

 

To see what I mean, compare these 2 copies of the same scan
