Re: [lace] Alexandra Palace
Hi Jacquie and Sue, et al, Your threads (both metaphorical and physical ..) made me smile!I have quite a stash of Oliver Twists, but also quite a few of the late Mr Piper's silks in beautiful colours.He was a lovely man, and he used to let me have 'left-over' reels of coloured silks when my Mother was hand-embroidering pictures, so I have quite a lot which I feel are far too wonderful to use. The polythene packets are a good idea to keep them dry and clean, though!

Are you supposed to *do* something with them Most people seem to keep them in their little colour-range packets. They are much easier to drool over that way and they don't get damp!

Re: [lace] Alexandra Palace -silk threads
Drooling and dreaming over the wonderful colours are therapeutic in themselves! I have just bought some of Bart Francis' blue silks, and haven't a clue what to do with them, but the blues against the gold are just so beautiful.
