[lace] Fashion Museum Bath - Lace Designing Opportunity

2017-04-07 Thread Jeriames
In its newsletter today, The Fashion Museum Bath invites people to use  
their *simple design tool* to create and share your own lace pattern.  When  
you have finished your design it will be added to their lace design  gallery.  
I think you could venture to take this further, if you have  designed 
something incorporating wearable lace on a garment.  You'd have to  write 
directly to them, of course.  
 
What a nice opportunity, especially for those who are usually  
self-effacing (I'm not good enough) and have never thought their lace  
designing skills 
would be collected by a museum.  Please think about  this.  Do any of your 
non-lace-making friends have anything in a museum  collection?  Probably not. 
 Get some "bragging rights" for  future lace demonstration activities.  You 
may access  several links at:
 
/www.fashionmuseum.co.uk/lace
 
Please - one of our experts - provide some further instructions  for our 
lacemakers who do not understand the very limited instructions  on the 
museum's site.

[lace] Bath Fashion Museum, lace design opportunity

2017-04-07 Thread devonthein
Jeri and others,
I just did this. Am I the first? I didn’t see any others posted.
Unfortunately, the lace design opportunity presented by the software is a
little bit limited, or else I am missing something. There are only a couple of
motifs, and they don not necessarily correspond with the edging choices in
terms of matching historical periods. So, my design is something short of
brilliant.
In fact, arguably, the design software is not really oriented toward your more
sophisticated lace appreciator. But, kudos to the museum  for trying to come
up with a simple interactive experience.

Dear Nancy,
The link is https://www.fashionmuseum.co.uk/lace
Jeri had mentioned it in a previous message. Maybe you didn’t get it. I
don’t get any of Jeri’s Arachne postings unless she sends them to me as
well as Arachne. ;-(
