Re: [lace] Admiration/list support

Hello Rhiannon and everyone

At one time, this lace list was my sole support in lacemaking - the
contributors brought me out of a muddle of half-learned lace lessons and
uninspired work. I had taken the lessons with a group in the village nearby
but time and work interfered with progress. When that group started a lace
club, it was too difficult for me to attend the meetings. The internet
wasn't as 'everywhere' as it is now, but it was on the move, and at least I
had an internet connection. So - when I found arachne, hardly a year after
this lace e-mail list had been started by Liz Reynolds, I realized I had
joined a huge lace group! I still work a lot on my own; now I'm able to lend
support to others. Very satisfying ;)

Well said Bev

I've recently moved house from suburbia to the country and I am going to 
miss the small group of lacemakers who used to meet regularly at my house. 
At least with Arachne I get a daily dose of lace 
conversation/chatter/questions and answers. It is a great list - keep it up 
folks.
