Hi Arachnids Sorry false alarm, but better safe than sorry. Fortunately no one has replied about receiving strange emails so I assume there is no problem. Perhaps it is because I followed advice given by an Arachnid several years ago about adding a false email address consisting of a number of letter âaâs at the beginning of my address book. Our thanks to you for suggesting it. Happy lacemaking Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

[lace] DP - IOLI Arachne lunch 2014
I heard on the convention grapevine that the hotel in Sacramento want to charge $24 for an Arachne box lunch next year, and I don't know if there will be additional taxes. I know last year was $25 and some of us thought that was an awful lot for the amount of food we received. Can I get the opinion of those who are likely to be attending next years convention whether they wish to proceed at this price, or whether we should just arrange to meet somewhere in the hotel at lunchtime for our get together. Maybe we could descend on the restaurant and ask for a table for 24 :-) I have posted to both Lace and Chat, but please reply to Chat or to me privately as I do not want to clutter the list up with non-lace emails.

I'm sorry to say this, but the clothwork parts in David's piece look a little suspicious. The passives make vertical ridges. That happens in machine made laces, not handmade cloth stitch. And the picots on the edge are rather peculiar, too. Far too long. But I'm not certain.

[lace] translations Honiton video
Hello All! Since I recently purchased some lace texts in German, the new OIDFA translation service got a workout yesterday. Terrific--many thanks to all who helped! May I ask--there are 44 English to German translations 51 German to English translations. Does this mean that there are duplicate words with the same meaning or does it mean that there are 7 more words that could easily be added to the English side? In addition to the OIDFA translator, there is a drop-dead gorgeous lace top on view--WOW! The various online translation services helped me out as well for basic text, although crack couples for Risspaare (passives) made me chuckle. Are we making lace or doing drugs?!? LOL So perhaps this is a good time to thank Martina Wolter-Kampmann for being proactive in publishing a translation of her book on Invisible starts finishes--German English are on either side of the diagrams on the same page. Thanks also to Adele for posting the link to the Honiton vid! eo. When I sent it to a friend, she replied that she didn't think of Prince Charles as cute but changed her mind after seeing him in the christening gown! Wishing everyone a lacy weekend.

Whether or not I get to IOLI next year, I am sure that I would not opt for being charged $24 for a box lunch!

Re: [lace] translations Honiton video
Hi Susan! I am sure I am not the most knowledgeable person to answer your question, but I have had numerous years experience with the same question! What I have learned, essentially, is that the German language has far fewer words, but each word can mean many things, depending on the context! Within the German-speaking world, unless you have been exposed to lacemaking and have learned the German terms which have beed adopted to describe lacemaking, even if you are a native German, you can read a German lacemaking book and not have a clue what it means! For those of us who are English-speaking, this is eye-opening! But there are other languages that share the same nuances, and so this is why it is so difficult to go to the on-line translation programs and get anything meaningful from the translation. Lots of luck! The better approach may be to ask if anyone on the list has (or knows of) a translation for the book you have acquired.

[lace] Arachne lunch
Dear Janice and others I enjoyed meeting other Arachne members very much! The lunch was just lunch and overpriced! I think we will see more participants if the cost was lower and that's what this is about!

Recently i went to a family reunion and found a Golden Corral buffet in Texas 2 miles from my hotel. Their price was under $10 and i got a senior discount for both my children too. their offering was extremely varied and you could get a steak or sea food cooked to your specifications as well as the usual offerings of salads, deserts and such. they did not push you to leave so we were able to visit and just kept going back for more offerings for 2 hours. don't know if there is one available but highly recommend it.
