Hello Helen Thanks for doing this "exercise" very interesting results. May just suggest this to our local group, and see how much (if at all) the results vary from yours.

Were these posted to Arachne? I've seen a response to them from Agnes but haven't seen the survey results at all.

[lace] Kimono silk
I have seen this silk, itâs gorgeous ..and the colours, wow. Itâs very fine (capital V). I didnât buy any though, here it costs an arm and a leg even if it was from a local supplier. I donât know how it works up but it sure is beautiful. Sharon, on Vancouver Island - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

[lace] Lace at the Olympics Rio Closing Ceremony Full Link
Greetings, I'm resending the Rio lacemakers, attaching the full link in case anyone had trouble. Finally back at the computer instead of using my phone. http://olympics.cbc.ca/video/vod/olympic-games-primetime-aug-pre-show-and-closing-ceremony.html You may be asked to activate Adobe Flash (allow now). It connects for one time if you don't normally use it for video. Press X on right top corner to close extra windows in front of the main screen. Go to full screen, optional. Slide the timeline over to around 2:20:28 to see the lacemaker walk towards the bolster. The lace segment is about half way through the program. It's worth the trouble to view this. Wondering if the Sochi lace is still online somewhere. Perhaps lace will show up at yet another Olympic ceremony!

[lace] Sternchen-Ei
Hello All! There's a new issue in my lace world this week. After borrowing several books from the IOLI library, I wanted to try to make some "eggs" for our library exhibit next spring. There is a pattern (pg 10) in "Gekloppelte Ostereier" by Annelies Kirst that looks interesting but it is a ground I do not recognize. There is a small diagram for Sternchengrund (by Brigitte Bellon) but no directions. I looked in "The Book of Bobbin Lace Stitches" & there are some similar stars, but not the one in the Kirst book. Is anyone familiar with this ground & would you be willing to share the order of the work/stitches? The diagram makes no sense to me so any suggestions would be most welcome. BTW--as an update, I was able to successfully use the advice I received last week for making a backstitch & sewing in the same space. Working in a new section of my project, I used your picot pin trick to make large pinholes. What a difference when making sewings! In spite of running o! ut of thread & various other booboos, I finished a flower outline so I'm pleased & encouraged to move on & try a fancy leaf. Sincerely, Susan Hottle USA Sent from my iPad - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
