Re: [lace] Not lace (but it could be) - help needed (2)
Bev wrote: You could try www.sewconsult.com They should have the manual for the 500 series for a small fee, and there is other useful free info that might apply to your machine, too. That's the manual that came with it. Apart from other differences, the 500 has 3 buttonhole buttons and they're in a different place to the 8 on the 550 and the 500 doesn't have either the pictogram or fancy stitches or the menus that go with them. After the 400, the Lily went through a further 8 variations - 500, 525, 530, 535, 540, 545, 550 and 555 each adding something new. I like things to be right even if I can work out what to do, so I'll have to be patient and wait until the lace group starts again and then get the local dealer to get a manual for me. Thanks to everyone who commented for their suggestions and I wouldn't have the cheek to join a Yahoo group just to try and get a copy of the manual..

[lace] a sewing with lace content raffle
Hi everyone Nice to see a raffle happening, thanks Debbie in FL ! Here is another. I am doing more clean out and this was about to go into recycling, then I thought someone might find it useful. It is a sewing pattern, a sweetheart dress intended for stretch fabrics (up to 25% stretch) in multiple sizes, 30 - 46 , an Ann Person 'collectible' - used by someone once (not me, and by the appearance of pattern pieces, she didn't finish it either) and the reason I bought it - from the thrift shop for not much - was the illustration of the dress with a lace collar on it. I could do that! I thought. I could make a lace collar and the dress to go with it! But I doubt that I will. It has a variety of necklines, high-scooped, low-scoop, V and sweetheart, cap, short or long sleeve. So if anyone wants it, whether or not you would sew lace to it, let me know. I'll take names for a week ending Friday Aug. 24 to allow for those getting the digest. I'll put it in an envelope right now and I will mail to anywhere ;) If nobody wants it then I can put it into the recycling box without regret :D -- Bev in Sooke BC (on beautiful Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [lace] smile! it's a raffle...a memory raffle
What a good idea Debbie, I certainly love to work with the old bobbins that I bought from him because my mind always wanders while I make lace and I wonder who owned these old bobbins and where they lived etc. how I wish they could talk.

[lace] smile! it's a raffle...a memory raffle
Bobbins by Noelene I'm never alone when I sit at my lace Every bobbin I own is a friend And brings back to my mind some special time When over my pillow I bend. There's a pair sent from Scotland , hand painted in blue From my contacts with faraway places And some from the States, received for a swap With hedgehogs, and fans just for lacers. There are some made of metal, and some made of bone But most are just made of plain wood The most precious of all are those turned by DH Going back to the days when he could There's marbled acrylics, and ones I've hand painted And plastics made bright with nail varnish There are Mother and Babes, and some spirally wound I just hope the wire doesn't tarnish. There are some from estates from those who've passed on And gone to that place in the sky Where threads never break, and pins never bend And with pillows in ample supply. As each bobbin goes by, with its burden of thread Does its work, rounds a pin, and is gone I'm reminded again of precious times past And friendships and memories live on.

Re: [lace-chat] MORE Childhood Rhymes Chants
Joy Malvary, This is getting really intriguing. For while I have never heard of either of your rhymes, the Australian version is obviously somehow a derivation. Ours went:- Ask your mother for sixpence To see the big giraffe With pimples on his whiskers, And pimples on his sK you mother for sixpence etc. That was the dirtiest joke I knew at Primary School :) - learned a few more later one David in Ballarat Oh, ASK your mother for fifty cents to see the elephant climb the fence the higher he climbs the more you can see of his stonishing powers!
