Kant Magazine number 3 from Brugge


Bev - is that the magazine that is published by LOKK? If not, who 
publishes it? Enquiring minds want to know.

Hi Miriam and everyone

My copy arrived last week.
For those who don't know this magazine, it has a variety of patterns,
usually at least one Flanders/Binche pattern, sometimes Brugge lace
itself, and some modern designs, and interesting articles (with a
supplement of English, German, French and Dutch translations).



Did any of ytou receive the Kant Magazine number 3 from Brugge.
It is a September issue and usually arrives in mail mail box pretty
early but it didn't show up till now.

Sorry for the delayed answer. I used some copper foil from a craft shop.
First I cut the face in some stiff packaging plastic. I used that to emboss
the face in the foil. The effect is totaly different from the original face.
She is looking angry now, so I want to retry.

[lace] Alone in non-Ithaca

2006-10-07 Thread Aurelia Loveman
Dear Clay, dear Sue, dear  Arachneans --  Me too, pining away for 
Ithaca! I was dying to take Jane Atkinson's class; and to see dear 
Pam Nottingham once again, who has been such a loving spirit in my 
life for the last 35 years.  But I am still not in good enough shape 
to undertake the long trip; plus, I have taken in a little abandoned, 
orphaned feral kitten (now a cat), and I thought it would be too soon 
to leave her. She is doing very well, is learning English, can now 
produce at least half a dozen variations of "meow," and knows how 
useful it is for a lacemaker in a tight spot to be purred at.  --

The first rudimentary reel had consisted of a wooden spool with a
metal ring that fitted over the angler's thumb. By 1770 a rod with
guides for the line along its length and a reel was in common use. The
first true reel was a geared multiplying reel attached under the rod,
in which one turn of the handle moved the spool through several
revolutions. Never popular in Great Britain, such reels became the
prototype of the bait-casting reel as devised by two Kentucky
watchmakers in the early 1800s. The predominant British reel was
called the Nottingham reel, based on the wooden lace bobbin devised in
that ancient lacemaking town. It was a wide-drum, ungeared, very
free-running reel, ideal for allowing line and bait or lure to float
downstream with the current and suitable for casting lures for
predatory fish in various kinds of sea fishing. It was influential on
the design of fly-fishing reels.
