[lace] {lace] Skill

2010-09-28 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello

  Jan Gardiner from Lacewing gave a talk at Wymondham in Norfolk UK on
wether we could be called a skilled worker.

If I remember correctly, she said we do something very skillfull. Manovering
the bobbins, threads. Knowing how to read, design and maker from a card with
pinholes on it wether we photo copy a pattern or not]

Most people cannot sit for the hours it takes to make our lace, even if its a
bookmark.

At the end of her talk she said I have come to the conclusion that we are
skilled people. So don`t let others say you are not!!!
I think she is right.

Hello to you all

 I have just been told this by my husband. A crafter comes
from craftsmen, which means a skilled worker.

So that is what we are skilled workers because there are not many people who
can make lace in the way we do.

[lace] Hookies

2010-10-10 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello everyone

  Further on from Viviennes suggestion of hookie bobbins.

I have used some plastic bobbins I had to hand and put a eye screw [ used for
hanging net curtains] into the top of the bobbins because its a closed hook
the thread go through but won`t come out when working.
To get the screw started I used a hot pin to make a tiny hole.

I`ve tried wooden ones but it split.

Hello everyone
 One of my ladies brought in a name of a lacemaker and asked if I knew
her. I don`t but I know a group who might know her.
Her name is Catrion Mason who was awarded an MBE in the New Years Honours List
in England, for services to lacemaking.
I enjoyed Larkrise to Candleford. A friend of mine who was a teacher in
Norfolk for 20 years has put a message on the BBC website for the wardrobe
lady about the Bucks point lace on the pillow.

Hello friendly spiders
  I have just spent a good hour bringing some bobbins back
to life. I had bought about 30 Springett bobbins second hand at a laceday a
few years ago.I tried to clean them up but it did`nt work. So they have been
thrown in a box since. I think there was a discussion on the list about
bringing bobbins back to life a while back, so I want to say about my bobbins.
I used Lord Sheraton Caretaker Wood Balsam which states it nourishes and
protect. The result is perfect. I now have these bobbins looking like new and
I will be proud to have them on my pillow in future.

[lace] Pillow bag

2011-09-05 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello Everyone
 My husband has just found a very good pillow bag which will also keep
your pillow dry in the rain. He went to the local fishing tackle shop today
and came home with what is called a stink bag. Its a bag to put wet keepnets
into when packing up to go home. it has a zip all around the top and laid flat
on the floor and has about a 3 inch depth. It will take up to a 22 inch pillow
quite happily. They cost £25 from any fishing tackle shop. They are a nice
light green colour with Sensor and a picture of a fish on the front. Obviously
Sensor is the manufacturer. A short handle and a long handle is provided for
ease of carrying.
Who says we don`t train our husbands well because he had the same thought as
me when he saw it.LOL

[lace] Lace Guild postage costs.

2011-11-15 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello Everyone
 I am writing this warning to stop other lacemakers who buy multiples
of bobbins etc. As some of you know I have my own group and for the last 10
years since the group started,I have always bought everyone`s bobbins and then
they pay me. This year I ordered 4 bone bobbins and 4 wooden bobbins, plus the
two new books The wedding one and the decorations one. It all came to £84 and
what I thought to be a bit extra for postage. When the package arrived it said
£ 1.59 on the envelope and when I checked how much I had been charged for
Postage. It came to £11.21. Which I think is outragous. So I contacted the
Lace Guild and asked if they had made a mistake. I was sent a list of postage
prices. I had been charge postage for each seperate item.Since then I have had
my e`mails ignored. So I wrote to the chairman who it looks as though is
ignoring that as well.
I won`t be a member next year and I think there may be others to follow suit.

[lace] New magazine

2012-01-09 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello to all of you
On Saturday I took Antje and Pams new lace magazines to Norfolk
Lacemakers to a all day meeting.
They were very well received and looked through all day. Some of the
lacemakers took details about the books, so hopefully there may be some more
subscriptions.
The comment they most received was "What lovely magazines all beautifully done
on lovely glossy paper" " How lovely and colourfull " was another comment.

[lace] Green thing

2012-01-31 Thread Daphne Martin
I totally agree with you Sue.
My husband and I were in Tesco`s one day and the staff tried to bully us into
using the machines. Even the woman on the checkout told us to go and use
them.
I wonder how she will feel when she is told she has no job due to the
machines.

[lace] fastening the bobbins

2012-04-21 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello everyone
 In all my years of lacemaking, the best thing I have found to
fasten the bobbins while working on a different area is the good old
bootlace.
Trainers come with in all colours and patterns nowadays,so its easy to match
laces.

[lace] Pattern for clock

2012-08-15 Thread Daphne Martin
Wasn't there an exhibition some years ago, of lace-covered CDs? People from
all over made the lace and sent it in, and there were some patterns
published.
Maybe those would work for your candleholders.

Does anybody else remember this?

Yes Adele I remember it and I have the files.

[lace] (Lace) Alex

2017-03-15 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello
  I totally agree with Alex about the time it takes to design a 
pattern,then writing out the instructions so everyone who likes the pattern can 
make it. People just do not realise this.
I designed a tablecloth made in squares with an edging in 2001 for Children in 
Need. A program here to raise money for that cause. In fact the lot totted up 
to 3,330 hours work.
Then  a member of a group that worked with me and my daughter on this 
project,said about another project was,Sod the Copyright!! This lacemaker 
does'nt design. Maybe she should!!

[lace] (Lace) Lacemaking.

2017-09-13 Thread Daphne Martin
I think if you need to use a helping hand to make lace i.e. Ghost pillow. Do so.
It's up to the lacemaker how he or she works the Lace. Speed has nothing to do 
with it.
Enjoying what you are doing does.
I taught  a group and some ladies used the polysteryne and some did'nt. it's 
personal choice.

[lace] (Lace) marking enlargements of lace patterns

2017-09-16 Thread Daphne Martin
Hello
I was taught and indeed taught Lacemakers myself to have 3 different coloured 
pens(fine felt tips) and draw the lines in the colours on the enlarged pattern, 
green for h/st,red for w/st and yellow for a gimp.
This is just another idea.

Thank you to all the people who gave advice on this project which is now

Now to consider my next project.

Hello fellow spiders,
I have been very busy recently reworking my lace garter for my future
daughter
in law to wear in 2 weeks time.  The lace is complete, the elastic and
ribbon
threaded through and I have her leg measurements and I have just cut the
elastic to get ready to sew together.  Happy so far.

Am now short of time to complete and get this handed over.
Many thanks in advance.

It is with a very sad heart,I am having to tell you,my husband passed away a 
few days before Christmas. It’s the only way I can think of doing this to get 
to people who know us.
Graeme was a big influence on my lacemaking life. It was he that got me a kit 
to keep my Shiralee company when she was learning. He supported the City and 
Guilds too. Why don’t you do it?? Etc etc.
The the Jubilee Lace Group which Shiralee and I ran for 10 years.
My apologies to any who think I am wrong to put this on here. I could’nt find 
Lace Chat.

Love

He was always in support of everything I have done.
He will be a huge loss to me and the family. My daughter has been very

If you use her images to create your own pricking I think you would be in
danger of breaking copyright - she holds it for the lace and design (as she
designed it) and the Guild hold the copyright for the images and layout.
