[lace] I need a new magazine subscription

2004-02-06 Thread Jean Nathan
What about 'Lace Express'? Very glossy, with a variety of types of lace from
all over the world from well-known designers. Much of the lace is fairly
simple, but photographed spectacularly so it can make a simple torchon mat
look really sumptuous. Some of the designs are shown with variations in
stitches. Apart from the introduction in English, German, French, Dutch and
Danish, there's almost no text - just pjotographs of lace and full-size
prickings.

It's expensive (62 euros, 43 pounds 40 pence) for 4 issues  (April, July,
October and January) and available through either Germany or Canada. Web
sites:

 Canada - www.laceexpress.com
Germany - www.laceexpress.de

My only criticism is that during the summer months (don't know why only
then) I have to open the envelope and put the magazine outside in he air for
about an air to dissipate the fumes from the printing ink to avoid getting
'high'. :-)

Usual disclaimers.

I just went to their site and it said a year (even 2004) was 52 euros (65.85
USD).  Still very expensive, but not as bad as it sounded from Jean's
message.

My lace group subscribe to it, we just received issue number 4 for this
subscription year. It is the
Easter issue and has some patterns specific to the season and some general -
mats, wearable lace etc. The Christmas issue is my personal highlight of the
year. Can't be more specific as I gave it to our librarian last night. IMO
for a lace group it is a good magazine and it fits in well with our other
group subscription which is to the Lace Guild magazine. For an individual
lone lace maker it probably doesn't have enough 'chat' for want of a better
word - personally I need articles, book reviews, adverts etc for a one and
only subscription.

[lace] I need a new magazine subscription

2004-02-05 Thread Chris Vail
Prompted by Tamara's announcement (You go, girl!) I'd
like to run a question past y'all.  I have a magazine
subscription running out that I don't want to renew
(they went from fun crochet to fashion, and I just
don't do Fashion :P ) What would you recommend as the
one lace publication/group to subscribe to?  To help
maybe narrow it down, I love patterns, don't fuss over
traditional or not, self-taught but *very* proficient
at Making Things Work, not real keen on part laces -
Honiton and the like, but am not limited to bobbin
lace by any stretch. If you can't pick one, do two and
tell me why.  And if it doesn't fit what I wrote
above, tell me anyway.  I'm willing to be wrong :)

I know this question comes up now and again on the
list, but I haven't needed the information til now
(isn't that always the way?)  I don't crochet much at
all any more and have plenty of patterns to keep me
busy.  I've never subscribed to a lace magazine before
and I'd really like to give it a try.  Thanks for any
info y'all can give me :)

Chris - ready to expand my world (I'm in the US,
should it matter ;D )
