Hi everyone interested in this subject. I answered Kathy privately but have been reading the other replies. What I have been interested in is the suggestion that you need to tie the workers against the first passive pair either the first time or even every time. When I was taught Milanese

Edition 3 of Threads for Lace is with the printers now and I am expecting to collect the finished books sometime during the week commencing 13 June - though I know from past experience that printers have a tendency to over run their schedules. All you wonderful Arachneans have been so

If you can't face dealing with it yourself (and it's very hard to deal with anything to do with a pet after so many years of their company), car valet companies can deal with most kinds of soiling to carpets and upholstery. Jean in Poole To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Gentle Spiders, Many thanks to everyone who offered help with googling - too many of you to answer individually (I know, very bad manners g). I persevered last night and found *some* answers, including the price ranges. And decided the workshop wasn't on, however tempting; the *minimum* I'd
