Oh I REALLY hope that one of our spiders got this book!!!  Obviously,
anyone who bought it got a huge bargain, and knew that it was a desirable
book, so I suppose I shouldn't say that...  but I love to help friends
celebrate such good fortune!!

Yes!

Guess I ought to introduce myself, having been lurking for a few weeks now.
I live with my husband and autistic teenage son in a small town in West
Sussex, UK, about 10 miles north of Brighton.  I've been making bobbin lace
for a relatively short time (my husband gave me a residential weekend as a
Christmas present beginning of last year as he knew I had always wanted to
know how to make lace - learned to tat and crochet as a teenager in the
1960s).  Over the past 18 months, I've had a fair bit of time available to
explore my new hobby, and have attended further residential weekends,
learned the basics of torchon, beds and bucks point and begun to experiment
with different threads, etc.  The first weekend I went to, the teacher
showed some slides of some large wall hangings and other less traditional
forms of lace and it really blew my mind and probably set me off on my own
individual meanderings in the world of lace.  

I have a real difficulty describing myself as a lacemaker - that appellation
seems to apply to someone with skills rather than a hobbyist like me.
Rather, I am interested in exploring texture and shape using lace techniques
- and on the way learning a range of skills.  I also enjoy my new hobby as I
have learned early that it is not necessary to follow a bought pattern or
obey all the rules, but I can choose what I want to do, to some extent
design it, etc.  I have quite a lot of computing skills and also enjoy
playing with design software.

Enough of me.  No doubt I will pop my head over the parapet from time to
time, but for the moment I'll return to lurkdom!

Cheers

Liz
