Thanks, Bev!  I've seen talk about lace stamps many times over the 
years, but have never seen one.  My stamp collector son would love to 
add them to his collection.  Thanks to everyone for participating in 
the drawings.  That's how they will continue.  They are fun.

BTW, just after I read Bev's message, I listened to a message on my 
answering machine that I won a painting at a charity Chinese auction 
that I went to last night!  I guess 12/12 was a lucky day for me!

[lace] stamp raffle winner

Hi all
I received 25 names. Each name was typed on a piece of paper, the papers
folded and put into a hat.
I had to wait until this evening for someone else besides myself to be
closest to the hat - DH pulled the name, and the winner is

Debbie Markowitz.
going in the mail asap.

Thankyou everyone who took part and all the lovely little e-mails - may I
recommend a 'raffle' like this to anyone who wants a bunch of cheerful mail
:)

Like the various exchanges, a raffle can happen any time someone wants to do
one. There is no $ involved except for the postage, which is a small price,
if something nice can find a new home ;)

[lace] US Lace Stamp raffle and copyright

2006-02-14 Thread Jane Viking Swanson
Hi All,  Sorry for my tardiness!  I just realized I was going to pick the
winners at 5:00pm and it's now almost 9:00pm.  So, with no further ado, the
winner's of the US lace stamps are - ta da!!

Jeanette Fischer  and Shell Wolski!!

Jeanette I need your address and thanks for including yours Shell!  My
ornament exchange partner was in Tasmania so I know my Post Office knows
where it is .

On to copyright.  I wrote Debra Jenny, editor of the IOLI Bulletin, and she
said I have to contact the four lace makers for permission to photocopy
their patterns and then I have to ask Debra for permission to copy the IOLI
layout of the article!  I am persevering but will mail that part separate
from the stamps .  I am assuming the lace makers will grant permission,
I've heard back from one and she's thrilled to know there is still interest
in the stamps! BTW I did find my Summer 1993 Bulletin with the article and
the patterns do not all appear to be exactly what's on the stamps but very
pretty nevertheless.

Jane in Vermont, USA where the temperature got to 40F (5C) today!

[lace] Stamp raffle

2006-02-02 Thread Jane Viking Swanson
Hi Spiders,  Since we've been discussing lace stamps I will have a raffle!
I have two panes (I think that's the term) of the US lace stamps to send to
new homes.  There are four stamps to a pane printed with four different
pieces of lace.  According to a short article in the New England Lace Group
bulletin of November 2003 there is an article in a 1993 IOLI Bulletin with
pricking patterns.  I'll contact the editor and see if I can send copies of
those pages too.  Thanks Jeri Ames for the NELG article!!  It just appeared
on top of a pile and it helps to have the right information!!

To enter send me an direct e-mail  [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Stamp Raffle in
the subject line.  I'll pick two names on Valentine's Day probably around
5:00pm EST (5W ).  I'll mail them anywhere in the world.

Jane in Vermont, USA where it got over 40F (5C) again!!  Usual for this time
of year is more like 14F (-10C).

[lace] Stamp Raffle

2005-03-31 Thread Jacqui
Thank you Bev, the envelope arrived yesterday.

The stamps are very nice and start a new section of my collection, they will
stay on the envelope.

The postcard is amazing.  The time and effort that must have gone into making
the rug, well who can say.

The ad for the book has made me more than curious, I will have to see if the
local library can get a copy, for me to look at.

Never mind, more ideas even less time:)

[lace] Stamp Raffle

Hello Spiders,

I received my stamps from Beths' raffle today and they are beautiful.  Thanks 
Beth for organizing it.
Now I have to think of a safe way to put them on display when I go to lace 
demos so that
everyone can enjoy them.
