 I received a beautiful card from Lin Hudren, with a beautiful bell on 
a red card.


Thank you Lin, your card is ready to go and will be posted on Monday.

To get it to work, I highlighted the highlighted area, plus the next line and 
copied it to a new search box. I don't know why, but sometimes in emails, the 
last part of a link doesn't get saved (highlighted) as a link. I got it to work 
by doing that.

in the morning and summer in the afternoon. A couple of days ago it was cool 
and windy.

[lace] 2017 Arachne Card Exchange

2017-11-02 Thread Lin Hudren
I was blessed to receive a lovely piece of lace well presented for the
exchange.  it is so delicate and charming.  my partner was thoughtful and
included the pricking to have a go at making it myself.  she is much more
talented than me tho.  thank you.

Hugs, Lin and the Mali

Hi Lin & gentle spiders
Not sure if mine is the first to arrive but I received a beautiful card with a
needlelace angel yesterday (which coincidentally happened to be my birthday)
Thank-you Lin!
My exchange lace is only half done at the moment, but I'll make sure it's
ready before the last posting date for Christmas
