Re: [lace] IOLI Convention 2019
It’s a weird thing - but try checking on different days of the week. Honestly! Tuesday is a really good day to check. Plus it’s a lng time until Convention, and there are often seat sales in the winter-time. I’m no expert; these are just things I’ve noticed over the years.

[lace] IOLI Convention 2019
This is a heads up for anyone who wants to attend. Recently, I started checking airfares & there were several convenient, well priced flights. When I checked again at the end of last week, I was stunned to see that flights from Pittsburgh had increased by MORE than $100 round trip! Ouch—that’s a least one book plus thread or maybe two books. Word to the wise who are planning ahea...d.

[lace] Egyptian Linen
I was amused yesterday when I went into the World Museum in Liverpool with a friend who wanted to visit the Egyptian gallery there. There were a few display boards (photos on Flickr) showing coarse to fine linens and some boards explaining in general about linen manufacture and care. They agreed with our discussion - finer linen comes from younger plants. There was also a stunning woven girdle, which I didnât feel appropriate to try to photograph as it was one of the display cases where you had to press a button to light it. The intricacy of the weaving was amazing. Sue suebabbs...@gmail.com - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
