Getting publicity for lacemaking from this would be good. Don't know how it works, but has anyone thught of trying to get an entry in the Guiness Book of Records for a world record of the largest nunber of people making lace at the same time. Don't really think it would be feasible because I think there has to be an approved moderator present, and there'd be too many venues for that. Just a thought.

Re: [lace] Lace-in relay -- date
I love the idea of a 24-hour lacemaking relay. But September seemes a long time to wait! Can we have a trial run first? Sounds to me like this should be separate from the UK National Lace Day and become a new, International Lace Day. It would run from date-line through AUstralia/New Zealand and Asia, across Africa and Europe to the Americas, and end in the Pacific at the date line again. Just like following New Year's Day celebrations. Since it's date-line to date-line, you can pick whatever date you like. How about the Arachne list's anniversary date in APril? Then it can be an annual event, if it works well. Robin P.

Sheila's post gave me the idea that perhaps sometime we coild have a lace-in relay - perhaps on the UK National Lacemaking Day in September. With several organisers around the world we could keep it going for the full 24 hours until it comes back home. Six people doing four hour stints, or eight at three hours. But do we have a wide enough spread of people around the time-zones to make it work? Just an idle fancy that it would be weird to know that for a full 24 hours, someone somewhere in the world is making lace. That is probably often the case anyway, but we don't know about it, so it doesn't count.

Re: [lace] Lace-in relay
To address how the second on-line meeting came about, it was the more possible because as Margot told us, the real members weren't able to attend the real meeting. Margot saw a chance and took it ;) I think if we can operate on those terms, everyone, somewhere, will have a chance to take part at one time or another. Planning a 'relay' is interesting too.

I'd assumed people were just hitting Reply All when responding to previous messages It's a bit more complicated than that, but not much. First, about a day and a half before the meeting, I asked who wanted to participate and I made a 'Group' in my email programme's address book. Then shortly before the get-together started, I sent an email to the group, opening the session. People kept asking to join in after the session started, so I kept adding them to the group and sending out new emails so the participants would have the new names. That's basically it. I think it helped that 1 - I have high speed hook-up 2 - I set my programme to check for messages every minute and 3 - I moved my lace making table next to my computer. When people dropped out as time went on, I left them in the group. Some of them asked to keep getting the messages and I didn't want to spend the time deleting them and sending out new lists.
