Firstly, thanks for letting us know the IOLI Bulletin and the UK Lace magazines are out and about. We, down-Under have not received either of them yet. I watch for the post each day, but without success as yet! As to the research into the old Bobbins - I Love it, - so keep talking, Brian :) I made a bonnet for convicted "First Fleet' prisoner for the bonnet collection that was being made by a lady in Tasmania - a bonnet for every transported woman, and I found "My" lady's trial at the Old Bailey in 1786 . It was fascinating reading - she was Transported for the theft of 3 handkerchiefs. She had dropped a couple, luckily - or she would have been hanged! The history of Lace and bobbins, and all that era is fascinating, I think, and the more old lace I see, the more in awe of the "Old timers" I am - they did n ot have books to tell them how to do certain techniques (and few of them could read, anyway, - and they had only candle light, and poor spectacles, ..Gosh! they were so clever, really.

Yes the list has been quiet recently. I get the digest version, and there has been quite a gap since the last one. With regard to the Lace Guilds Publications, - Although we don't want the list to be filled with the "Me too" type messages, it would be nice if one person could mention when a UK Lace, IOLI Bulletin, or other regular publication arrives in their letter box, - so the rest of us know to look out for it. 3 (that I know of - including Me) were about 4 months late with the Spring Bulletin, I must say the Guilds are Excellent in replacing missing magazines, - promptly and without any hassle, - but sometimes we don't realize we are one missing. PostaL services are dismal these days, so we know we may have to wait a bit longer - for those of us in far-flung places! - but we don't want to miss out completely. I understand the Summer IOLI Bulletin Will come out - but not sure when, - the Autumn/Fall edition is about due too, now. I understand the Editor is ill, and I hope she has a full recovery.

[lace] Lace magazines and memberships
Thanks to Joepie for reminding me about Vuelta y Cruz - combining Spanish practice with lace definitely rates highly with me, so wanted to subscribe but couldn't afford to when it first started and had forgotten about it; subscription for this year now taken out :-) I'm also a Lace Guild member, can't give you a review of the April issue of Lace as it's been sitting unopened by my chair for a week, along with quite a pile of non-lace publications I'm behind on reading; too much to do, too little time - how I'm going to find time to read Vuelta y Cruz as well is a mystery :-( I find myself agreeing with both Jane & Joepie on the individual membership/shared subscriptions questions - of course we should support our lace organisations/publications by subscribing individually and encouraging others to do so, but where 2 individuals can't afford the whole membership fee/subscription surely it's better for everyone to have them club together and share one copy - at least the organisation gets one sub that way instead of none? Similarly where one individual can't justify the cost of an individual sub in terms of what they'll get back - that's probably an issue for some of us when considering subscribing to an overseas guild/publication where the postage rate pushes up the cost and we're too far away to benefit from any guild activities apart from the the magazine, and most of us don't have deep enough pockets to support more than our local/national group out of altruism. And of course, passing on or lending a recent-ish back copy of a guild magazine to a newer lacemaker can be a good "hook" to lead into the suggestion they join the guild...

[lace] Re: lace magazines/membership
I wasn't slating you, but if you were in the position I am, regularly visiting The Hollies, you would possibly feel the same way when someone appears to suggest that sharing is acceptable, even if that wasn't exactly what was meant. Unfortunately, a lot of people have the misconception that sharing is acceptable, and seem to think that it is OK because they are the only one doing it, right? - but that is not the case, and the point I was trying to get over is that sharing increases subscription rates, decreases membership numbers and eventually kills off the organisation in question. This is why the Guild had to stop the group memberships - they desperately need to increase their income if they are going to survive. It is good that you both support the Guild, and I wasn't in any way apportioning blame, just expressing my frustration that a lot of people think this course of action (whether it is called "sharing" or "buying co-operatively" it has the same potential consequence) is acceptable in the first place. I was under the impression from what I was told was that the reason the Circle failed was a bit of both - lack of members and lack of members willing to serve on their Committee.

RE: [lace] Re: lace magazines/membership
Hi Jane and other Arachnids, Just to add to my rather short and hurried note I wrote just now rather in anger. Sorry about that because I did say âshareâ when I should have said âbuy cooperativelyâ or something similar. If I did not get together with my best friend to subscribe to these lace magazines I would only able to afford two or three which would mean that three or four groups/magazines would miss out as my friend is in her eighties and could not be bothered with the hassle of keeping the subscriptions up. However, because I organise the magazines and subs she only has to pay her share (or portion if you prefer). So rather than slating me for âsharingâ magazines, one should ask about the circumstances before commenting and certainly not apportion blame. By the way, The Lace Guild is the only group where she has a separate subscription which I organise for her so we always have two âLaceâ magazines. Not only that, I always recommend that my students join the Lace Guild and several have done so. Lastly, The Lace Circle, which I also belonged to for many years did not close because people shared their magazine (âThe Lacemakerâ) but because no members came forward to take over the running of the group (at that time I was too busy and too far away to be of any use to them).

RE: [lace] lace magazines/membership
Hi fellow Arachnids, The magazines I subscribe to are; Lace and the Young Lacemaker (both from the Lace Guild, UK) and Lacemaking (the magazine of the Lace Society, UK) with articles, book reviews, patterns & news from the world of lace. The Lace Express with patterns and eye candy but no articles at all. Vuelta y Cruz which is brilliant as it helps my Spanish study as it is written in Spanish and English. This has articles on lace, patterns as well as series of lessons for a particular type of lace. And lastly but not least OIDFA which lacks the frequent patterns found in the others but which has more internationally wide ranging articles than the others. All of them have things to offer which are useful to lace makers. I know it seems a lot, but I share with my best friend who is also a lace maker ;-) Happy lace making (and lace-reading) Joepie, East Sussex, UK, where spring has sprung at last. The temperatures are rising nicely and we have had a couple of really nice (dry) days. HURRAY! I have just joined OIDFA so I am looking forward to getting their publication. Other than that I read the IOLI Bulletin and the Piecework.

I had wondered what had happened to The Lace Guild's letters page, and when I asked, I had the response that there hadn't been any letters sent in, and those that were had been passed on to the relevant people for response! Emails tend to be answered straight away, or forwarded to the relevant experts to answer, so it might be an idea if you do chose this method of communication to make it clear that your intention is for it to be published in the magazine concerned. Even the 'silly' questions have their place - not everyone knows the answers and beginners are sometimes afraid to ask (and experienced lacemakers too embarrassed!) Where book reviews are concerned, do check the magazine's policy. The Lace Guild have a team of reviewers for Lace, and the books reviewed are those which have been acquired for the library, so members know they can borrow them if they don't wish/can't afford to purchase. Most of the guild libraries welcome copies of new books - budgets for purchase are limited, and it isn't always easy to know when a self published book is available, especially those published in far flung places :-) In message AA4458ED184A43899E9E79C99D4454B6@Lacepc, Elizabeth Ligeti lizl...@bigpond.com writes Even a letter to the Editor with a pat on the back, or a grizzle about something would be OK!!

Yes, we all love to receive our magazines, but remember - Editors can only produce a good magazine if they have patterns and articles to print in them. If no-one sends in anything, then there will be just a lot of blank pages! So please, everyone, try to send something in occasionally to the Editor, - a book review, a pattern, an article about what your group is doing, - even a Dear Dorothy letter asking for help with some techniques, or where to access certain threads, etc. I try to offer one something to each of my Guilds each year. It does not always happen, but I try! Don't think My lace isn't good enough, or along those lines. Beginners like simple patterns, and are just as entitled to find one in the magazine as the more complicated designs!!

I realized that the October 2012 issue (#148) had an article about a Halloween quilt made with 12 lace motifs applied to the pumpkins. Included were the patterns for an owl, a witch a vulture. I was looking forward to seeing the other patterns published, so I'm wondering if there will be some more patterns in the next issue? But do we have to wait for another 2 years for all the others?

Re: [lace] Old lace magazines
Never ever through anything out. Firstly give or sell them to other lacemakers in your area. Many lace guilds or groups have a mechanism to recycling old magazines / books etc to newer members be it a sign at a lace day saying 'free to a good home' or selling them for a small cost and using the money for library books. Secondly many OP shops will accept them and sell them on to interested parties. my knitting group always goes there for extra knitting needles and old knitting patterns. Thirdly donate them to a local school or church group for their annual fair, most have a secondhand or preloved table with books and other bits and pieces. I once bought a huge selection of tatting patterns at a charity fair (these were taken from magazines and on the surface did not look good but the patterns were lovely). Forthly offer to send out a list of what you have (ie we contact you privately) and if we want them then we can pay you the postage for your magazines. Finally there is ebay Anna who has just returned from a long weekend away in Canberra.

Re: [lace] Old lace magazines
I just sent an email by mistakewas not ready As I was saying. Miriam and Karenoh my, this IS a problem! Both for books and publications! I started lacing in1970 and the amount of materials I have accumulated is mind boggling. At half past 85, I am still teaching a bit and, being in good health, not ready to clear out, but one day my kids will want to know what to do with all the goodies. We need regional clearing houses...any one have any ideas??? This last thought has started my wheels spinning, albeit slowly. I will keep thinking...you, also?

[lace] Lace magazines
Yesterday I received my Needle 'n' Thread magazine - from the Guild of Needlelaces, and today the postie has just delivered the UK Lace magazine, - so I have a continuing feast of lace!!! I have only openend the envelope so far, - and looked at the front cover - a beaut fan, and read the lovely poem on the back cover. I get to read the rest of the magazine tonight - more sweet, lacey dreams!!! What Would we do without these beaut magazines arriving every now and again?!! Hmmm! I must work on a contribution for this year. I try to do one contribution to each magazine each year. If everyone did one thing, there would be heaps of copy. A book review, an article, photo, pattern, - something. I am sure more people have something they can share. I am in 5 Guilds (do I have an addiction?) so I need to get my thinking cap on to get something for each one. Maybe I better buy some more books, and do some reviews!!

Hello Liz and everyone, Liz, this is a generous goal! I am sure more people have something they can share, too, with their lace magazine(s) of choice. I like the idea of buying a book to review!

Dear fellow Arachneans, Today is Saturday after being empty all week, our letter box had 2 items just for me! One was the OIDFA Bulletin the other Australian Lace. The OIDFA Bulletin has lots of interesting articles. One story is of how the Canadian Quilt of Belonging came to be. Margot Walker has written an excellent article there are photos of 4 blocks for the countries of Belgium, Brazil, Malta Paraguay, that feature a piece of lace. For those that missed the mention of this on Arachne last year, the web-site is: http://www.invitationproject.ca/ where you can view read all about the individual blocks. Other stories are about an Ethnological Museum in Prague, a small lace collection in the Civic Museum of History Art in Trieste, Italy, lacemaking in Crete also in Croatia, a Bucks pattern for a round mat edging from UK lacemaker Bee Barford. My copy of Australian Lace was a little creased, but has the patterns from the previous issue reprinted due to printer problems. There are some lovely bookmarks edgings by Olwyn Scott Robin Hueppauff. Kath Shadbolt, who I met last August, has shown how a coloring book illustration simple tape lace, can be used to produce a Beaked Coralfish. And there is a pattern for a tatted bag named Anastasia. Lots of lovely reading to get me through the next few weeks, while I wait for the snow to start melting.
