[lace] PBLC website
Hi All I've just updated the Pool Bobbin Lace Circle website with all the photos from their annual competition. For those of you who have never met Jean Nathan 'in the flesh', she is in the group photo, front row on the left. I've added some reports from Spanish Lace Days as well. Out of interest there are entries from Beryl Millard and Liz Pass who 'lurk' on the list with occasional postings. I've still got to do some work to do with some photos from Poole Lace Day and the suppliers page needs serious work, I'll let you know when it's done.

[lace] Antique vestment artist
Clay wrote: Don't know if it still happens, but when I worked in London in the 60s/early 70s and used to visit the National Gallery frequently, there were always art students sitting copying some of the smaller old masters in oils. Not fraud unless they tried to pass their painting off as painted by the "old master". So you could buy a genuine oil painting copy of something you particularly liked. Better than a print.

RE: [lace] Antique vestment artist
It wasn't at all unusual for students of artists to copy their master's work. This was one way to perfect techniques. That's why you see so many paintings attributed to "in the style of..." or "after...", and sometimes the actual artist's name is not known. Today's art students still absorb the essence of good teachers and often imitate their style, but it is probably considered considered plagarism if a student duplicates a teacher's work.

[lace] Spanish linens (FW)
Hi All -- I got this message from another List I belong to (WIC/Women in Consulting) and thought maybe someone here would know (or be) someone who might be interested in carrying these handworked linens. (Wish I could see / carry them!!) Kind regards - Ricki T Utah USA * * * * * Greetings WICsters, My associate has a gorgeous line of one-of-a-kind vintage Spanish linens, primarily nightgowns and bed linens. She is moving back from Spain to CA next month. We are looking for shops to carry her merchandise. It has its own label, and is presented beautifully. She has a solid inventory. Each piece has delicate handwork (embroidery, lace, etc.) and is in perfect restored condition. I am personally won over to sleeping in these incredibly comfortable nightgowns and sleeping on these charming, soft-as-butter cotton sheets. We are looking for eclectic shops that sell some vintage products (such as Anthropology a few years ago, and ABC Carpets in NYC). Do you have recommendations for shops that would be suitable to carry her line? We also need the names of their buyers and/or owners. Any contacts at Nest (in Marin and SF)? Suitable boutiques would ideally be located in N. and/or S. California. Additionally, recommendations in NYC, London and Paris are welcome. Any referrals to appropriate lists or sources of lists? If you have recommendations for entry into larger enterprises such as upscale boutique hotel shops, that would also be welcome. Please do not reply to me but reply directly to Tina Blakeney: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you in advance for your ideas and assistance! --Susan Kirshenbaum - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace] La Dentelliere painting
My daughter has worked this as a cross-stitch pattern for us.The printing onto the canvas was not good, the bobbins in particular, which makes it difficult for a non-lacemaker. However, the finished product is lovely and hangs proudly on our wall. A British supplier used to sell it, but I am not certain if they are still in buisness.

[lace] Australian Arachneans
I will be busy this week deciding what to pack before I fly to the USA next Monday. I know that Liz Ligeti from Melbourne will be there because she is one of the teachers, & I also know of 2 ladies from Western Australia who will be there. But I was wondering if there are any other Australians that have decided to attend this Convention. If there are, just reply privately to me.

Luckily, some buses are A/C now but you never know which one .. ... Anyway, I went to musée Galliera ( 10 rue Pierre 1er de Serbie in Paris, france) to see the mirror exhibition of court clothes from the Dutch and French 18th century .. it was ma-gni-fi-cent ! not much lace except on the sleeves but a lot of embroideries and rich fabrics i was real surprised to learn there was a kind of ready-to-wear at that time : the garments were pre printed and embroidered and the tailor *only* had to cut out the shapes and adapt to the customers and for once lots of explanations so i left the museum knowing more than when i came in. not so frequent in French museums who tend to put explanations in the exhibition brochure (which i hardly ever buy because of the price ..) and don't forget the Retournac museum . they need our help as ever . http://www.ville-retournac.fr/musee/anglais/indexang.htm they have a very nice set of butterfly patterns on sale. Remember that all patterns are new editions of old patterns from late 19th and early 20ieth century. don't be put off by the leaves and tallies . the more you make the better you make them. i am living proof of that . VBG... and for those who speak French and happen to go the Haute Loire way, the workshop is really worth it. Once you start tackling their patterns you realise the lacers of old were really clever . dominique from Paris, france. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
