Subject: Re: [lace] Wish list of teachers
This may sound odd, but I wish I had been around in the days when Doris Southard was teaching at the IOLI conventions! By the time I met Doris in 2002(2) she was 80+ years old and no longer teaching. I do have a photo of her working on her pillow but didn't have an opportunity to spend much time watching her make lace. I think it would have been wonderful to have taken a Tonder class from her! I imagine there are still some lucky people out there that did have that pleasure! Speaking of Miss Channer I think it is a safe bet that one of our member's will be displaying her completed mat in the exhibit room at the IOLI convention this year! See you soon!!!

Hi Arachnids Re - Date: Tue, 20 May 2014 08:36:21 -0400 (EDT) From: dmt11h...@aol.com Subject: Re: [lace] lace style sheet, was lace proof readers Frequently, it is the person who has studied the language formally who understands it better than the native speaker! I agree with this comment. As a native speaker I am not always aware of all the rules of spelling and grammar as someone who has studied it can be. As a teacher and author writing about lace subjects I am well aware of the pitfalls, so are my proof readers including Aurelia herself. I would never have finished revamping my dictionary without her. She was always picking me up, and making pointed comments using misinterpretation that had me in stitches and enlivened my mornings. When I wrote my dictionary of lacemaking terms I was often asked which was the correct term when there were several. In my opinion it is not about which is the correct term. To me words are tools by which we pass on and receive ideas. What matters is that both the sender and receiver have the same understanding of the word or phrase. The English language is wide open to misinterpretation, hence the wonderful episodes when Shakespeare has his actors playing with them and Aurelia made fun of what would otherwise have been tedious. As an author and teacher I have to do my best to guard against misinterpretation, and I use several lacemakers to proofread and try out my explanations. My thanks to all my helpers. Hopefully we succeed. Happy lacemaking Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Subject: Re: [lace] prickings
Read the posts about storing used prickings. Lots of good information. I, too, like to keep them in the book the pattern came from if possible. I keep them in plastic page protectors...cut to fit the book if need be...keeps them from falling out when you open the book. I've found out the hard way that the ink from regular ball point pens like Bic tends to fade as the years go by so I make notes in an indelible ink...a Pentel brand Onyx pen is a good one...fine lines and inexpensive. If you're going to make any markings on the pricking before you cover it with clear contact film, a pencil works well. Inks of all kinds seem to bleed into the contact film after a while. BTW...if you use the plastic page protectors to store your notes and prickings, make sure they're made of polypropylene, which is chemically inert.

Go back to the Word screen and select Paste (or hold the CTRL key down and hit V to paste). It will automatically fit the pattern to the page. 4. Repeat with each section of the pattern. Enjoy!

Subject: Re: [lace] bobbins... and now, teaching?
I bought the dowel and some long wooden beads years ago with the intent of using it to make long bobbins for doing yarn lace. It is on my "someday" list. Teaching - well my guild is having it's third class this year for beginners in November and without any advertising we already have 9 people on the list! The first class earlier in the year was a success with some new members and the followup "continuing" class also included 5 new beginners, 4 of which joined the guild. Now we have decided to offer a class on a special day rather than eat into our guild meeting days. I came up with a new simple pattern this time that should be able to be completed easily in the 4 hours this class will have, and that will include them doing some winding of bobbins and pricking the pattern. Our guild members help out by sitting alongside the newbies, one-on-one if possible, and this takes the burden off the person running the class of being everywhere all at the same time. I am concerned that if we keep growing at this rate, we will outgrow our meeting room which is very convenient and economical for us at present. I developed an easy bookmark pattern, just uploaded it to the second page of my arachne webshots album: http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/album/149126673AmIpMo?start=0 If anyone wants a to proof read my class notes and get the pattern, email me.

Re: Subject: Re: [lace] Flanders
Hi Janice and everyone Duct tape? At Sally's Binche workshop this summer (at IOLI) I learned to colour in sections of my diagram-copy with the colours of the Belgian code, as approriate. V. helpful as an aide memoire. At home now I colour in the pricking as well (I need all the aide memoire I can get :p ) I use what someone called a voodoo board to pin where I am, the diagram-copy on a piece of styro, or if the styro isn't available, I just pin into a double layer of paper and *as well* I use Clay's tip of removeable arrows in several colours to locate where I need to be at a given section. The thing about Binche and Flanders in the areas of motif, is the passive can become weaver any place necessary to help fill the space; an outline thread helps define or perhaps corral is a better word, corral the passive/weaver movements within the shape. For Lorelei - there are areas of a given pattern that repeat a pathway to fill in a shape, but we don't have stitch distinctions for the cloth stitch areas as such, you just use what works to fill in the space and have the pairs entering and leaving in a logical manner to the lace as a whole, for any given pattern.

Re: Subject: RE: [lace] Bobbin Lace Jewelry in sterling silver??
I think we're all on the same wavelength with wire - it is the silver clay 'cord' that gives us a headache, if we try to make 'lace' with it!

RE: Subject: RE: [lace] Bobbin Lace Jewelry in sterling silver??
Francis, Working with wire is quite fun. You use the same patterns and can use the same bobbins to work in wire. Certainly handling wire and fiber thread are different, but it just takes a small adjustment. It is not always easy to find someone to teach wire lace. The links I provided the other day would be a good start. Susan Lambiris is teaching beginning wire lace at the IOLI convention this summer. I think the difficulties brought up related more to the clay than to actual wire. Since we can work bobbin lace in wire fairly easily, I would not be inclined to work with the clay for this purpose.. I do hear, however, that it is great for some applications such as findings.
