Re: [lace] Starts and Finishes
I think it might be better described as the beginning determined by how we're going to do the end I know the book's English sub-title is The Beginning of the End but from my reading of the book Ulrike's view was how/where you start a piece should be governed by how you're going to finish it. I suspect there are some techy linguistic definitions appropriate here ( or is it because the German von means both of and from?)

Margot Walker in Halifax on the east coast of Canada and I've found Sheila Brown's Starts and Finishes in Torchon lace very useful. Thanks for that, but the two books mentioned above were the ones I had in mind (I was having a senior moment and couldn't remember how to spell Ulrike's name!!!) - I meant books that don't necessarily have starts or beginnings in the title, that would be easy to miss unless you knew that there was this sort of information in them. Although there are specialist books, such as these, sometimes what is written in other, more general, books, puts a different slant on the wording or diagrams (making it easier for some to understand), or comes up with other possibilities. I can cope with reading/understanding French text up to a point, but otherwise languages other than English are beyond me and I would need translations! -- Jane Partridge - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] Starts and Finishes
Hi Daphne et al, I do realise that, for many people, lace-making classes - like any other adult education classes, I suppose - are not only for the sake of getting to grips with the subject matter; they are also a form of escapism, in that one goes out for the evening/afternoon/morning/whatever, and does something one enjoys, but also does it with like-minded peole, and enjoy the break with domestic routine. Like Daphne, I also have, in most of my classes, a 'hard-core' of attendees, but I have also had those who come for a term or year or two, learn to do what they want to do, and then trundle off, only to come back if they wany to learn another lace technique, or get hopelessly confused with whatever they are in the process of making! So - perhaps Daphne and I are doing it right after all...

Hello Carol and All I`ve had my group for 8 years and I have also taught my ladies how to start and finish. Now the group is 8 years old and I still have the same ladies. Am I right or wrong???
