Re: [lace] Princess Lace Making Machine on eBay
If you read through the posting, the seller has generously estimated that the Princess and bobbins are worth a total of $1,000, and has set his/her reserve at half that. Seems like a lot to me. And it's odd that they've got so many of those bobbins. You could never get them all on a pillow like that! Even working half those bobbins on that pillow would be a challenge!

Gosh - and I've got 2 of them sitting in my spare room just waiting for me to get myself organized to SELL on Ebay instead of all this buying :) I did use my Princess pillow once - and only once - a pain in the a..se.

Re: [lace] Princess Lace Making Machine on eBay
Update -- The reserve price has just been lowered. As to the bobbins, it's probably just happenstance that they are in the same sale with the Loom. The previous owner, if a typical lacemaker, probably had several pillows and a variety of bobbins. Someone may have just grouped the items for sale, and these ended up together. I agree...all of these could not easily be used on this pillow at the same time. A smaller bobbin would suit the pillow much better. Alice in Oregon -- recovering from a great Lace Day on Saturday. Sampler classes were given, making tatted, bobbin, and Romanian Point butterflies. A special guest was Elena Dickson from Australia. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you read through the posting, the seller has generously estimated that the Princess and bobbins are worth a total of $1,000, and has set his/her reserve at half that.
