Re: [lace] Graph Paper
You can also by graph paper at any office supply store and most gaming stores. It's useful for map making for role playing games. You can get it really cheap in August anywhere that sells school supplies as many high schools require it for math class. Many multi-fuction printers also print graph paper. My epson artisan printer has a graph paper setting. On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 4:45 PM, Clay Blackwell clayblackw...@comcast.netwrote: Thanks, John! That is such valuable information!

Re: [lace] Where Have All the Tatters Gone? (digitally)
There is a huge community of tatters at in tatters. Intatters.com I believe is the address. Should come up right away if you do google search.

Re: [lace] Lace and bad eyesight
I was legally blind until I was 24. Wore bifocal contacts. Then I got lasix. Best thing ever. Before that, I used to memorize the colors of a room so that if something happened to my contacts or glasses I could get around. Now I just make sure I have good light. In a few years I'll need to get readers because of aging which no ones found a fix for lol. On Thursday, March 28, 2013, Lyn Bailey wrote: My father was legally blind. His 20/20 was right up at his eyeball. He went to blind school for a couple years as a child. Yet he drove a car, was a thermonuclear physicist, and did everything anyone would do, except bird watching and art appreciation. Before we went someplace new, he would study and study the map, as street signs were probably beyond him. Daddy did not allow me to use the word, 'can't' when I was growing up. -- Michelle Writer / Web Designer http://michellejnorton.com http://denverfictionwriters.com - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] Re: types of lace worked
I've learned to tat but still very much the beginner. So far with bobbin lace I've made a short tape of stitch practice before my move. I've knit plenty of lace like things, but nothing of actual lace. On Wednesday, March 27, 2013, J D Hammett wrote: Hi Shell and fellow Arachnids, Like many lacemakers I can do several types of lace;- bobbin (a number different types), needle, Irish and 'straight' crochet, Carrickmacross, Armenian (knotted), knitted, tambour, tatting (do not enjoy but can do it), Tennerife and embroidered laces and probably some others. Don't forget that there are many different types of bobbin lace alone; just counting them off without reference to books, papers or the Net I can think of about 40 each with its own techniques and little tricks :- -- Michelle Writer / Web Designer http://michellejnorton.com http://denverfictionwriters.com - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

I went ahead checked it again and it works. Maybe I hit it during an off time. That makes me happy! I want to try out the samples.
