[lace] Bobbin winder

2013-05-04 Thread Alan Sheila Brown
Can anyone remember the instructions how to make a bobbin winder using a 
little battery fan.  They were in a 1980's/90s  copy of Lace and I've 
sent all my back issues of 'Lace' to Bury St.Edmunds Museum library.  
Mine has at last given up the ghost and my wrists   are grumbling!.

No Lace yet, have to wait until  Tuesday at least

Hello Noelene and everyone

They are a patented French invention of some vintage, to protect the thread
from soiling. I have a references to them being used particularly for
precious metal thread (gold) or fine silk.

Does this help?

[lace-chat] Re-assurance Please .....

2013-05-04 Thread nestalace . carol
Hi Spiders All,
 
I was supposed to be going into hospital for a hip replacement - long awaited, 
and would be turning cartwheels with joy, if the hip wasn't too bad at present! 
- which was scheduled for the 15th May.   That gave me a few weeks to get over 
the shock, I thought, but this morning at 7.40 I received a call from the 
hospital to say the op. had been brought forward to the 7th May - next Tuesday! 
   Needless to say, I will be so glad to be able to walk without pain, sleep 
without pain, stand up and sit down etc., but I am terrified at the thought of 
going into hospital.   I have never had a serious hospital operation before, 
but am consoling myself with the fact that this time next week, it will all be 
over, and I will be skipping about a bit like a spring lamb...  So - please all 
think of me on Tuesday!

Hi Carol,

I checked the lunar phase for the 7th, and it will be a few days before the new 
moon.  Sounds weird, but they've done studies and found that surgeries done 
around before and during the new moon phase have less complications and less 
bleeding issues than surgeries done around the full moon.  It's along the lines 
of the way the moon effects tides.  So the change of surgery date is a good 
thing.

I understand your anxiety.  Good thing is that the anesthetics and pain meds 
they use these days can make it a lot easier.  Just to prepare you...expect the 
first few days after the surgery to be painful.  It will take a little while 
before you're up to skipping.  But once it heals, I'm sure you'll be doing 
those 
cartwheels.

You're in my prayers.

2013-05-04 Thread Lesley Blackshaw
Carol, I wish you all the best for your surgery. Focusing on how well 
you will feel when you recover will help you over the pre-op panic.  
Friends and family who have had this operation all say that the post-op 
exercises are as important as the surgery and those who have done them 
regularly seem to have made better recoveries than those who haven't.


Will be thinking of you on Tuesday.

Lesley

Please don't be put off by being told it will be painful after. Not 
necessarily. I was a nurse involed with hip replacements and have many friends 
who have had them. Two friends have had both hips done. Only one complained of 
after pain, she also did not exercise and has not had a good result. I have had 
both my feet operated on, both at the same time, they shaved the bone down on 
both feet, I have had a webber C fracture, both leg and ankle broken with the 
ankle dislocated. This was plated and screwed. Later plate and screws removed 
and I tell you what I have had worst period pains and childbirth pains. Go 
girl, look forward to your new lease of life. Vivienne
