I have recently signed up for an e-Membership of the Lace guild, and so 
far so good got the two Lace magazines for the year thus far. And if I 
get a membership number I will be even more happy.


I've just checked the IOLI website and they too have an 
e-subscription/membership but no indication how one down loads the 
magazines. Can anyone tell me more about this.


I have subscribed to electronic knitting and quilting magazines, they 
have been really great. I have the patterns accessible wherever I am, I 
can print out what I need and do not have to worry about physical 
storage or the vagarities of the postal system.

[lace] IOLI Bulletin Winter 2019 & Lace magazine news

2019-01-27 Thread J R
I have been remiss in announcing the arrival of the Winter 2019 IOLI
Bulletin. I got it a couple weeks ago, accompanied by the annual handbook.
Also, on FaceBook, I saw a post by the Lace Guild that the current digital
Lace magazine is now available. Better yet, in July of this year, the
digital-only Early Days magazine will be available to members for just an
additional $5. I've been curious about that publication, thinking it might
be a help in teaching kids and newcomers. 

 

As for the Bulletin contents:

Detailed information about this year's Convention in Spokane Valley,
Washington

Articles by a couple convention teachers: Karen Thompson (Ipswich lace) and
Mimi Dillman (tatting)

Memorials for Judy Zeiss and Marion Jones

Proficiency Program information

Laurie Waters' second article about Learning Needlelace (I've added this to
my list of future projects. She makes it seem doable.)

Jennifer Kohn on 3D tatting

Spangling bobbins by Lilly Douglass

A summary of the recent Figural Lace exhibit at the Lace Museum in
Sunnyvale, with photos, by Evelyn McMillan.

Lia Baumeister-Jonker's overview of lace history and identification with a
couple patterns

Photos and description of the creation of an exhibit piece Ulrike Voelker
designed and then executed with the help of three of her students.

Yes, the e-version is now available online. Unfortunately 5 pages don't
load fully. I've sent an e-mail to the Lace Guild asking if it can be
fixed. I'm assuming this is a problem at their end, not mine, but I'm not
really tech-savvy enough to know. Perhaps someone else who gets the
e-version could take a look at pp. 28-33 and tell me if the bottom of the
pages is missing for them too?

[lace] Lace (magazine) - and use of magazines for research

2018-04-26 Thread Jeri Ames
When my Post Office burned to the ground on Feb. 21, 2017, the only mail I
knew was lost were the end-of-January Lace magazine from England and a
PieceWork magazine.  Very rumpled sooty waterlogged copies were delivered to
me.  Certain magazines are so important to documentation of the present that
my guest bedroom has 20th - 21st C. publications in bookcases and boxes that
fill the room.   In this case, I went to a bookstore and replaced PieceWork,
and then phoned The Lace Guild in England to order a replacement, plus
calendars for the following year (gifts that are fun to give), and renewed
membership.  All in one call.  So fun to speak with someone in the office.
 
The bonus for lace scholars who visit here is that they sleep in the library,
surrounded by 4,000 + books that tell of the history of needlework in many
nations since the beginning of researched time.  It is a real celebration of
the talents of unknown and known women.  Guests probably have interesting
dreams.  At the least, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.  The librarian
here has read all the books that are in English.  Other languages are
represented and shelved by nation instead of author name.  Research goes much
faster when you have her experience to draw on.  
 
If you are a member of IOLI, there is a photo of my research library on page
33 in the Spring 2018 bulletin you just received.  It is in the article by
Jane Atkinson, of the U.K.  What a surprise!  Jane took pictures, but I did
not know how she would use them.  There are still many IOLI members who do
not know about this library, because they are not subscribed to Arachne, so
thanks for sharing, Jane.
 
NOTE:  If you are receiving this in a round-about way because my AOL and
Gmail and the Arachne server are not compatible and if you send me your Gmail
address, I will add it to my bcc list, so you can receive posts directly from
me.  Please tell me a little about your lace connection when you write.

The new Australian Lace magazine arrived today, - so anyone who has a
subscription should look out for it, - as it is “in the post”!!

I am busy tatting – with a #80 threads – which is Very nice – except
when one does a stupid mistake (like not paying attention, and/or mis-reading
the pattern!!) and it is rather hard to see, to Un-tat!!
I better learn to concentrate better, or more (or both!)

What are others working on?

Wow, I haven't had mine yet and it doesn't have to get across 'The Pond' to
reach me. Looks like the office staff are ahead of themselves with sending
out the overseas copies!

Now all the UK types get to find out how our overseas members feel when we
post about things in the new magazine.

[lace] UK Lace magazine

2017-05-25 Thread Regardes from Liz.
My magazine arrived safely a couple of days ago – at last.   There is a lot
of good reading in it, -- and  an idea I am playing with for a competition
piece, has had a nice prod,  by something in the magazine which travels along
the path my thoughts were going!  So that was a big help to see that I was
thinking along the right lines...!

I need to improve my typing, as I had a bad typo in my last email – I Have
received a form for the Lace Exhibition in Philadelphia, (My typo said
‘not” instead of “now”!  Sorry.!)

I have started tatting a sleeveless vest – in small squares – from a
Russian pattern. Its a good thing their numbers are the same as ours!!  And
they have a clear diagram, - which I enlarged!   It is something I can work on
while travelling  - a 15 hour plane flight, 4 or 5 hours at LA airport, then
another 5 hour flight to Philly, should give me time to tat a few squares!!!
I need about 75 (or more) !!!
You don’t have to be crazy – but it helps  I am using #20 DMC Cebelia,
which is nice and soft, and pleasant to use.

Regards from Liz. In Melbourne, Oz.

2017-05-01 Thread Nancy Neff
It's also perhaps worth noting that what Jeri has cited simply as "(ISP)"
is "gmail.com" in the case of the NELG addresses.  Are the 'free' (i.e.,
ad-supported) email services US-only or would they be available in the UK?
Because not only are the addresses "anonymous" in the sense that they don't
change even as the people behind them do, NELG doesn't pay anything for
those addresses or for the email service.

Dear Jane Partridge,
 
Thank you for this explanation.  Nice to know, as The Lace Guild was  not 
mentioned in the original correspondence, only the word Guild.  There  are 
other "Lace" publications that members of Guilds  worldwide receive.  Gmail is 
used by people in many nations; not  exclusive to one country.  Some on 
Arachne will agree (if you are  careful as to with whom you are exchanging 
personal information)  that it is best if an official position is given below a 
 
signature.  In fact, the original old "guidelines" for new Arachne  members 
asked for a signature and general location.  
 
As a matter of information, and not to tell anyone what to do:  Eight  
official officers of the New England Lace Group (approximately 100  members) 
all 
have addresses formatted like the 2  that follow:  
_NELGPresident@(ISP_ (mailto:NELGPresident@(ISP) )  _NELGLibrarian@(ISP_

Hello Jeri,

I am a member of the Executive Committee of the Lace Guild. If anybody
wants to contact the Exec Committee then holl...@laceguild.org is the best
way to do it as your question might be best answered by one of our paid
staff, somebody on the Museum's Committee or a member of Exec.

I hope that when I have been promoting the Guild it has been helpful to the
person I replied to (for example when somebody was looking for second hand
books).

The reason I asked people to let me know when they got their copy of Lace
was because I didn't think Arachneans wanted to get loads of messages from
people says 'Yes mine arrived on ' and it is easier to just hit [Reply]
to my post than remember to send an email to holl...@laceguild.org.

My email address is the one I use most and therefore the one I look at most
often, I am not in the process of collecting addresses, I have enough
clutter in my life already ;-)

Jeri,


Clare is a member of the current Executive Committee of The Lace Guild. She is
also a member of Arachne in her personal capacity - so her return address will
be a personal one (I don't think I have ever seen a committee member of any of
the organisations join Arachne in an official capacity,  since it started in
1995, but I may be wrong).


I'm sure it would be lovely for the Guild to be able to afford time, money and
expertise to set up official accounts for those working outside The Hollies,
but the practicalities of ensuring there will always be someone with the
knowledge to promptly change the forwarding addresses when the committee
changes or someone resigns, or affording a professional to do that for them,
make it one of those things that have been discussed and left at that (as you
will be aware, I'm a former Hon Sec of The Lace Guild). Other matters take
priority where charity finances are concerned.


BTW, your email, amazingly, has come through direct on the reflected list - it
seems some do, some don't - mostly I have to wait for the digest to see what
you have written, Jeri!

2016-11-24 Thread Sue Babbs
Thanks for the mention, Janice.  Yes, I was awarded a Medal of Excellence for
the Christening ensemble (dress, blanket and bonnet) which I had made.  I am
still waiting for it to be sent to me, along with the CD/DVD of the exhibits.
When I enquired yesterday I was told by Michelle that the Guild has still not
overcome the technical issues (which I assume is with the CD not the Medal
production) and so I don't think Jane Partridge can be right about the stack
of CDs being sent out.

I was sad not to be able to be in England in the short time that the exhibit
was up and looked forward to seeing the CD, but I have rather lost interest in
the competition now that it has been shut for two months and the lace has been
safely returned to me.

I would also have liked to see some photos showing the exhibit as a whole, as
well as all the entries.

I've also not yet received Lace so haven't yet even seen the winners, and have
no clue how many entries there were etc

Back on August 4th, the Lace Guild invited winners to post their own photo on
FaceBook, which I did, but it doesn't seem that anyone else did, so anyone
wanting to see my entry can look at that date on
https://www.facebook.com/thelaceguild

I think the CD/DVD of entries replaced the booklet that used to be sold, but
it seems a shame, now that it is so easy to put photos up on the internet, not
to show the lace to a wider than those who went to the exhibit  : (

I suspect that the reason why the photos are not put on the website is because 
the Guild usually produces a cd/dvd of them for sale, and free access to them 
via the website would defeat the object. Contact The Hollies

[lace] Volunteering - Lace Guild UK index to Lace magazine

2016-10-05 Thread Jeriames
Thank you, Malvary!
 
Your reply to Susan was just what I needed to read this  morning.  It 
illustrates dedication that is often missing on Arachne  (though never from 
you), 
and which is often unappreciated.  Now  that Arachne readers know Malvary 
is one of the proofreaders  of "Lace" and also does the indexing - AND makes 
lace for a Lace  Guild publication:  What can YOU do?   Many of you have  
skills that Guilds need.  
 
The Guilds go begging for help all the time, and that means people are  not 
volunteering.  Without volunteers, Guilds in the recent past have been  
known to "shut down".  They often need officers; I see the same people  filling 
required positions (by government, for incorporated organizations)  - 
moving from one official office to another, for YEARS.  Recently, I  read in 
"Lace" of several positions The Lace Guild needs to fill.
 
Several memos have left my desk about the high quality of  "Lace".  Someone 
told me there are up to 4 (lace-expert)  proofreaders who read each issue 
before it goes to press.
 
Everything published about Lace (books, newsletters, press releases,  etc.) 
should have such attention.  I get goose bumps every time I  read something 
that is incorrect from an "expert" who had no editor, because  it may 
reflect negatively on Lace as a whole.  Perhaps that is  one of the reasons we 
are not taken seriously enough in the  museum world - for funds to be 
allocated to Lace exhibitions?
 
When a key person is sick, like the Editor of a Guild publication,  
leadership should  have a backup plan in place (perhaps a previous person  who 
held 
the position).  This is where someone with expertise needs to be  "on 
call", just like physicians have backups.  It has to be  overwhelming to be 
obligated to a deadline or important meeting, and not be  able to participate 
due 
to personal incapacity.
 
So many are not actively sharing on Arachne.  This is a  great place to get 
experience by writing (for example) that can then be  used to benefit Lace 
Guilds.  I'm begging again:  Everyone has a story  about Lace.  Every one of 
us has received a lot of volunteer  (free) help in connection with our Lace 
passion.  
 
Pleaselet us hear from you.  You are the future of Lace Guilds,  and 
this is a good place to practice sharing.

I must confess that it is me who currently does the index.  I've been doing 
it for 2-3 years now.  Just indexing the most recent issue (163).  I also 
proof-read the issue before printing and have just finished proof-reading 
164.


Haven't finished indexing 163 yet because I'm working on a piece of lace for 
the 2018 Lace Guild Calendar, and the deadline is looming (passed one and 
aiming for the new one).  I'm also managing the Calendar project.


I'm just pointing this out that although I live in Canada and can't 
volunteer to help at shows etc., there are things that I can do.  Perhaps if 
you live far from the headquarters of your national lace group you could 
find something to help with, too.

sure didn't--so my thanks go out to Megan B, a very kind librarian at Cornell 
Univ., who provided a link.  The index is by author & subject so you can scroll

a CD, available for purchase.  What a resource--Thank you Lace Guild!!

[lace] Kant lace magazine

2016-05-05 Thread Anita Hansen
By far my favorite lace publication is Kant magazine from Kantcentrum!  It is 
in Dutch as it is from Belgium, however it comes with supplement pages which 
contain English and other language translations.  I love that nearly (if not 
every) issue has a Binche design or two! There are also other techniques.  Very 
clever Torchon mats!  There is usally more than one design in each issue that I 
would love to make.   It is a high quality, colorful magazine. I highly 
recommend it!

2013-02-02 Thread Janice Blair
My Lace Guild magazine arrived today but DH didn't tell me.  I spotted the 
envelope after dinner and settled down for a read.  Imagine my surprise when, 
on 
page 21 there is a photo of my needlelace effort for the Lace Street.  I sent 
the photo I based the design on of my home along with a scan of the lace and 
Susan put a note in that it looks just like the real house.  Then, on page 30 
there is a design based on a Viking Stone from St.  Martin's Church in 
Kirklevington which is the small village in Cleveland, UK that I moved from to 
the US.  Imagine, there were lacemakers nearby and I knew nothing about them.  
I 
moved here in 1982 and didn't start making lace until 1993, Wow - 20 years ago!!
 
Anyway, now that I know how to get my photos on Flickr, I have added one of the 
Lester piece after I cut the bobbins off.  Looks like spaghetti lace.  And, now 
that the house has appeared in the magazine, I added that one for you all to 
see 
in my gallery on Flickr.  Thanks also again to Sue Babbs for the review of 
Lace8 
which I have now got to work on my Macbook in VirtualBox.

[lace] Lace magazine overseas packaging

2012-08-06 Thread Laceandbits
Dear overseas Lace Guild members!

As you know we had some issues with the mailings for the last membership 
year (now hopefully resolved) and we are pursuing this with the mailing house. 
 I know this is a long shot, but if any of you still have the packaging 
from any of the last year's issues of Lace (April 2012 back to July 2011), 
would it be possible for you to scan it and send it to she...@laceguild.org  If 
you can remember roughly when it arrived, that would be even better.

The only person who I thought to ask to do this is Malvary when her April 
issue arrived, and it clearly shows no airmail markings but now there is some 
dispute as to whether they were all sent the same way (very probably as 
they mostly took a long time to arrive) or whether hers is an anomaly that was 
sent surface mail by mistake.

Many thanks in advance, 
Jacquie in Lincolnshire

The Lace Guild has taken the overseas postings back in-house as the late and 
even non-arrival of the magazines being sent from the mailing house, allegedly 
by airmail, was just not acceptable to us any longer.

As used to be the case, the overseas magazines in future should be arriving at 
much the same time as the UK ones, which will still be sent by the mailing 
house.

[lace] UK Lace magazine

2012-07-30 Thread pene piip

I'm very happy that my copy of Lace #147 has arrived today.
I was pleased to see that the tatted lace on the back cover was made by 
Europa Chang with whom I shared a hotel room in Caen at the OIDFA Congress.


I was sorry that while at Caen that I didn't get to meet Ilske  Diane Z 
and several other UK Arachneans.

But I did finally meet one of my second cousins at the Mayor's reception.
It was hard to read name tags  I know that my name tag kept turning 
around so that it was always back to front.


Maybe if flags were printed on the name-tag attendees wouldn't have to 
ask where people were from.
I think that trying to read small print from a few feet away is hard for 
many of us who are short sighted.


Now I have to write a report of my trip, soon before the memories fade. ;-)
Ciao for now,
Pene in Tartu, Estonia where we just had a hot Sunday (33C).

HI Sue,

We are at the hands of the postal service  when it comes to our
magazines. I am not sure how it works out side of the US. Here magazines are
considered 3 class mail so it sits in a bin  there is room on the planes.
First class has priority. Once it gets to the destination it can go through
customs and they sit there until customs clears them. I have mailed magazines
to Brazil and it has taken 4 months to get there. I think I could of walked
there faster. To mail a magazine first class for overseas is at least 3 times
the cost of the subscription. I wish I could give you a good suggestion but I
have none.

Tracking a parcel going to a different country means you do the tracking on
that country's postal website. I have had to explain the same thing to
companies in the US when they say they won't ship to Canada, because they
can't track it once it hits the border. Duh, I can, because I track it on
the Canadian side, not the US sideWhen I ship something to the US that
is trackable, I have to track it on the USPS website once it hits the
border. Now that most mail services have websites, makes it a lot easier to
track stuff.

Hi Malvary and Arachnids,

You are very welcome to it as we are about to grow gills. It is raining yet 
again. We had drought conditions and a hosepipe ban (which was only lifted 
on 1st July in my area) earlier this year, so I am sure your turn will come.


However, the rain gives us a good reason to make lace instead of doing the 
garden ;-)   So there is some sunshine despite the rain.


Happy lace making,

abated somewhat, but it has been very difficult for the people who live in the 
areas where the fires are the worst  the firefighters have had a very 
difficult time.  The worst part is that not only is nature causing
The fires both here in Wyoming and Colorado, but people are causing them too!!  
In Fuernsey, Wyoming near the very famous Orwfon Trail site  Signature Rock

supposed to have been started by humans!!
So, we are also praying England will share their rain - BUT no more lightening!!

2012-07-12 Thread Jane Partridge

Sue,

Please accept the Guild's apologies for the long delay, and thank you 
for your patience. We suspect that the overseas magazines were sent out 
surface mail by the mailing house (which should not have happened), and 
they may not have been processed as quickly as we would have liked 
before posting - as you quite rightly say they should have been posted 
at the end of April. Certainly items can still be sent from the UK by 
surface mail, which tends to take around six to eight weeks. We 
discussed possible solutions to this problem at our Exec meeting last 
weekend and hopefully you will receive your magazines a lot faster from 
now on - the first issue of the new membership year is due out at the 
end of this month, and we are well aware that there may be some late 
renewals!.


If any other overseas  members of The Lace Guild have not received their 
April magazine (which had the renewal slip sent with it) yet, can they

G'day all,



My English Lace magazine arrived here in Masterton, New Zealand, yesterday.
Say, for the sake of argument that it was posted on the last day of April,
it has taken two and a half months to get here!!  I was on the point of
e-mailing the Hollies to say I had been missed off the list.  It seems to me
that they are using the cheapest postage rate they can, in an effort to
reduce costs.  It was my understanding that there is now no sea mail between
NZ and UK, but there must some really old airplanes on this route if it is
taking so long!!!  The thing that alerted me to the fact that my mag had not
yet arrived was that I was aware that subs were due and I usually paid mine
by the end of June.  Hopefully they won't take us off the mailing list just
yet!!



Sincerely,



Sue Fink,

 Sue,

 Please accept the Guild's apologies for the long delay, and thank you for
 your patience. We suspect that the overseas magazines were sent out surface
 mail by the mailing house (which should not have happened), and they may not
 have been processed as quickly as we would have liked before posting - as
 you quite rightly say they should have been posted at the end of April.
 Certainly items can still be sent from the UK by surface mail, which tends
 to take around six to eight weeks. We discussed possible solutions to this
 problem at our Exec meeting last weekend and hopefully you will receive your
 magazines a lot faster from now on - the first issue of the new membership
 year is due out at the end of this month, and we are well aware that there
 may be some late renewals!.

 If any other overseas  members of The Lace Guild have not received their

The problem may not necessarily have been the mailing house at all - but
some sort of delay/oversight of one of the postal services involved along
the route.I received my April issue of Lace here in Australia quite
promptly. 

However, only about a month ago, I also received a letter sent before
Christmas from a friend in England .. it had inadvertently been sent to
Thailand before being redirected onto Australia.We're well used to mail

date if you can read it.

HI Antje,

You don't say in your message how much each issue of the magazine would 
cost, and how much the postage per issue would be,. to either within Spain 
or overseas, (al extranjero).  I looked at your webpage for the magazine and 
nowhere there does it mention how much the subscription to the magazine 
would be either.


Can you add a price, and postage costs, to the page of your site giving 
details about the magazine and perhaps to the subscription page too?


Thankyou

Correction!

I am afraid that I have made a mistake in the letter I posted this morning.
Twist and Cross is a magazine which appears every four months, with
three issues a year. I am sorry for having used the wrong word
(quarterly), which is so similar to a Spanish term that means 3 times a
year. Sorry again.

Best wishes,

Hello Antje and everyone

I have seen this magazine all about lace and I love it! It is beautifully
printed, in colour. The stories and articles are varied and interesting,
the quality of the patterns are impressive. I am ordering for myself very
soon.

For us in North America, the cost of a subscription is around $50.00, a bit
more including the paypal fee. It is good value.


 Please take a look at my website www.vueltaycruz.es , where you will
 find the information on how to buy it or how to subscribe. Now it is a
 good moment to buy, as the first 3 magazines have already been
 published and I am sending them in one envelope, charging only one
 shipping. I really need your support to get the number of
 subscriptions which will allow me me continue editing

[lace] Lace magazine arrival story

2010-11-15 Thread bev walker
Hi all
It is quiet on the list and herewith a bit of chat. The 'Lace'
magazine arrived at the PO box last week, but I didn't know except for
a claim card. Of course I knew right away after presenting the claim
card and seeing the piece of mail. It had a bulky bit in it, and the
people who sort thought the better of trying to force it into the
narrow mailbox (I have had to pry mail that was rolled tightly, out of
it, ever since the powers-that-be decided to install smaller boxes to
fit in more addresses...how efficient is that...). Now what was this
bulky bit all about? It was at one end of the envelope, as if
something had been tucked in to the magazine.

All it was, was a crimp in the fold below the staple, that must have
happened when the envelope was stuffed. It was so rigid that the
envelope was thumb-thick at that point, and it 'crackled' - (as thick
paper does) must have been of interest to the people-who-sort! I
popped the bent bit back into place and it was a 'whole magazine'
again.

That and a stat holiday for Remembrance Day caused a bit of a delay in
the mailing to this end. Since then, enjoyable read and visuals ;)

(that's my story and I'm sticking to it)

there must be privacy but do not exagorate in it

you realy get informed of thinghs rather then to look whom or what is 
behind the strange
rather NORMAL lace magazine whom has the intention to reach out to ALL 
lace related people.

be happy you got a free copy of somethingh you might be intrested in
afterall it is not like you got a brochure of the aldi or lidl

i hope i did not used to strong words but as you all know

Thank you for the great explanation of the reason for the Dutch only printing.  
I highly respect several of the contacts of the magazine and love the direction 
of issue I received. There are plenty of images of new work along with the 
articles. This is so necessary for our visual artform. Although I don't read 
Dutch, I can understand the gist of the articles from the images and the little 
I've picked up working through Dutch pattern books.

Although I agree with the fact that the topic has segued from why people
might have got the new(?) lace magazine to privacy issues, Francis has an
excellent point that there is nothing *strange* about it as a magazine, it's
just that it apparently arrived unexpectedly for most people.

As shown by the subject matter of his post, that was his most important
point. 

And many of the comments about privacy issues were about how they affect
lace groups and teachers trying to get their name to a larger audience, which
I think therefore makes it allowable.

That sounds like a delay between the mailing house sending out the magazines

I know that my Kent Family History Society journal which is despatched from

because the overseas ones go airmail (the reason for the higher fees ) but the 
UK ones go by bulk mailing which is really third class.

Hello

   I also got my copy of the Lace Guild magazine on Tuesday.

In it is a memorial for Pat Payne by her daughter Jo.

Pat was the lacemaker who started Norfolk Lacemakers here in Norwich England
in the 1970`s.

In my opinion is was a lovely thing for Jo to have done for her mum. On the
headstone is Pats name and underneath it is lacemaker.

A fitting tribute indeed.
