So we're still over 1000 on the Arachne
lace list,
And how many of those are just lurkers - close to 90% I'd say.

Arachne is probably the oldest,
continuously running lace-focused list.
It's certainly outlasted all those hundreds of family history Mail
Lists which were so popular in the 90s. I'm wondering if it's not the
oldest continually running List there is???

I was not quite there at the the beginning. as I did not start making lace
until about 2004/5, though I had a short period of a couple of months trying

The panel would be my preference. And to answer David's question we should give
it to the lady who runs our list. And the person/s joining the panel make a

I'll second that for doing a panel for our moderator Avital, Ilske . Good
idea.
And it would be wonderful to have a commemorative for our 20th birthday.
I've got all the commemorative bobbins, and the outstanding ones for me came
from Chris Parsons. He also supplies tatting shuttles made by
Even though I don't need more bobbins I would be interested in a
commemorative bobbin. I joined Arachne in 1996 when the OIDFA Congress
was happening in Finland. A lace panel could be donated to the Luton
