[lace] Springett workshop
In the mid 1980's the Springetts came to Australia (Twice), and gave us workshops. When tensioning up carefully, christine told us to "Milk Fairy Cows" (How do you do that? - Very Carefully!) I wonder if she still tells students that!! It is such a silly phrase, - that one Never, Ever forgets it! It still makes me smile when I find myself telling me to "Milk Fairy Cows", if I am being too enthusiastic with tensioning up David gave a wonderful talk on bobbins, and the other time Christine gave a great slide show of her collection (or some of it). They were both memorable occasions.

Yes, Christine still uses that expression when describing how to make a picot! In our workshop two weekends ago, she told us who coined that phrase, but I have forgotten now. Maybe someone else can remember. She was careful to give credit to a number of teachers who have been important to her.

Re: [lace] Springett workshop
I Love this. It *is* a little like milking a 'fairy' cow..I guess, as I haven't milked any kind of cow. I will never make a picot again with smiling over this one and I may even use it.
