Re: [lace] Re Kate and wearing lace
I am hoping that once the new ness of the job wears off she will relax a little. The stress of the last 6 months must have been huge with the media watching every move. She is an attractive young woman and shows off her elegant style and the beautiful lace nicely. I hope she will be a good boost to our clothing industry and that lots of our less than elegant young women will attempt to follow her, without obscession. I also feel that some of us mature grin women could still wear and do wear lace which draws the eye. I saw some lovely pieces worn on clothing from a small flower to a collar, at a fairly recent lace day. I wonder where else some of the arachne people wear their lace apart from lace days or weddings?? Perhaps you would share that with us. Sue T Dorset UK I'm afraid that people's eyes would not linger on my frame long enough to see the lace!!! ;-) Clay On 7/9/2011 1:11 PM, Daphne Martin wrote: Hello Jean Nathan wrote I like to think that I would show lace off better than she does because, being much larger, there'd be more of it to see on me!

Sue T asked : I wonder where else some of the arachne people wear their lace apart from lace days or weddings?? Perhaps you would share that with us. When I was in England in April I bought a couple of t-shirts at Sainsbury's. When I got home, I found that one of them was a little low (v-necked). I made a little triangular modesty of Idrija lace so now it is much more comfortable for me to wear. I also have a couple of t-shirts to which I've added lace and wear them often. One t-shirt gets thrown in the washing machine, the other gets washed by hand, not because of the lace, but because of the t-shirt. It is a very nice italian cotton and cost me a fortune so it gets washed by hand.

Re: [lace] Re Kate and wearing lace
Malvery, That sounds lovely, but I dont think I have any nice enough t-shirts around to show off beautiful lace to its best, so perhaps I need to keep my eyes open, or look at my wardrobe a bit better:-) Do you find fine lace washes better or bigger grid ? Well off to finish the dishes before I can prepare lace patterns and then make the lace.

Re: [lace] Re Kate and wearing lace
I don't think that size matters too much. You do need to stitch it all around so that it is firmly attached. One t-shirt has a piece of Honiton and the other has three pieces of Milanese - same design, different braids. Both were made in fairly fine thread.
