Greetings, Lacemakers!
I have just returned home after spending the last three days with my DD and
her family (two boys, ages 6 and 9, made for a lively three days!!). I

Hi Janice and everyone
I think the title translates as From the sardine crisis to the golden age of
lace - which is a pretty neat summary for the history Dominique has
explained.
I'd love to have a look at the book sometime but I'm afraid I don't have time

Thanks to Sof and Bev for explaining what sardines had to do with lace, and
thanks to Sof for all the links.

Hi Janice
Kathy is the one who sent me the scan and info about that card and I checked

Angela, can you clarify this as it is a piece of lace that I
I agree. I noticed that immediately, since I've made it. It's the

Dear lacefriends,
we did have a somewhat difficult Christmas time this year. One of our DDs was

Tomorrow morning the surgury is sheduled to remove the tumor.

Dear Alice,
Thank you for the cake recipe. Sounds like a good one to take to my British
club pot luck supper in January and I bought some chopped walnuts today. Nice
and easy.
Dear Dora,
I only just received the Lace Digest with emails from before Christmas so I am

this worrying time. I hope she will soon be well again after the

focused on the best possible outcome and I'll do that. May the
operation be fully successful and the recovery speedy and smooth, so
