there to sell the lace magazines or give them away for the cost of 
shipping  https://www.facebook.com/groups/701327486619477

Sorry to hear of Marion’s passing.
Oh Dear! another lacemaker up  on that cloud now. It is getting to be too full
up there, so I hope everyone will stay down here for a lot longer!

I have received 2 Lace Magazines in the last 2 days – Wonderful!!
The first to arrive, yesterday, was the IOLI Bulletin, and today the Postie
brought me the UK Lace magazine. – so I have some good reading to do
tonight!!

I must put my creative juices to work, and see if I can come up with an entry
for next year’s IOLI convention. We are hoping to be able to go, - and are
tentatively planning the trip.
Yes, I know.. Last year was our Last trip – but so was the year before
that  Fingers crossed for one more visit!!!

I received the Needle ‘n’ Thread magazine of the Guild of Needlelaces this
morning. I have not had a chance to read it yet – That is a bedtime treat!!

However, I have not had the Lace Guild magazine yet – and I have not heard
of any other Aussie getting  it either, so it looks like we will have to wait
a bit longer, for the Postal service to  get them sorted and delivered!

But having been the one to ask if we could be told when the magazines start
circulating, I thought I better mention the Needlelace one!!

[lace] Magazines & Geneology

2016-11-20 Thread Elizabeth Ligeti
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.

While on the subject of magazines – Catherine Barley, Wendy McCulloch and I
have been working with our printer to get Susanne Thompson’s ‘Introduction
to Honiton Lace’ reprinted as Print-on-demand and it is now only weeks away

[lace] Lace magazines and memberships

2016-05-07 Thread Beth Marshall
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...

2016-05-06 Thread Jane Partridge
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.

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 ‘share’ when I should have said
‘buy cooperatively’ 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 ‘sharing’
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 “Lace”
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 (“The Lacemaker”) 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).

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 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 :-)

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!!

On Monday I received two magazines - the Nov./Dec. issue of Piecework
 the Fall 2013 issue of I.O.L.I. Bulletin.
Now I'm waiting for the UK Lace one to arrive.

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

2013-08-19 Thread Anna Binnie

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

These are my plans too.

[lace] Old lace magazines

2013-07-29 Thread Miriam Gidron
Hi,

I was going over some old lace magazines and was wondering what you are
doing with them. Do they end up in the recycling bin or do you give them to
other lace makers.

I have so many magazines and I want to down size a bit. To tell the truth
many are already old fashioned. There are so many new ideas around that
these magazines are just  passe.

of useful articles, patterns and chat; it also contains a series of lessons 
in Hinojosa (Witch stitch ) lace -one lesson in each magazine. I have also 
subscribed to the second year and am looking forward to the offerings to 
come.


A wonderful achievement to produce such a nice magazine. Well done Antje!

I received my magazines today and I have to say I`m definately not
disappointed. There are three lovely glossy magazines with patterns and
instructions for beginners, plus lovely patterns for us more  mature
lacemakers as well.
A big thankyou goes to Antje for telling us about and making the magazines
available to us all.
Has anyone else subscribed yet?? They are worth the money I promise you.

[lace] Lace magazines

2010-02-02 Thread Elizabeth Ligeti
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!!  (what an excuse!!! :))  )

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.
