Hi, I am Noelene van Iperen from Tauranga, New Zealand, and I would
like to
join in the lace-in relay please. I see on the Time Zone map I am in
zone 12
and we are usually 12 hours ahead (depending on daylight saving) of the
UK
so presumably I would be amongst the first to start in the relay

To all Arachneans interested in the lace relay: I think we need to stop
and ask ourselves the purpose of a round-the-world lace relay - is it to
show that lace is continuously being made round the world over the 24
hour period in question or do we want interactive chat going on between
I'll second that I've been pondering the same question all week.

I have been amazed (and flattered) at the interest my idea has produced! I
spoke to the Lace Guild this morning about the convention and mentioned the
relay while I was on the phone.
If it looks as if the event is a possibility, and if it looks as if National
Lace Day is a potential date,

I'm not an expert, but I think that if we all want to be making lace on
the same date and because of the international date line, the relay
would have to start in Australia and move next to North America. Maybe
one of our Australian friends, who is probably more used to dealing with
the date

I think if you read the messages that come in on Christmas Day or New Year's
Day (or tracked Santa as he visits round the world) you will find the
messages come in first from Australia and New Zealand and then move round
through Europe to North America. So that is the order you will

As you can see I received your email at 1.01am on Frid 3rd Feb in Canberra ACT
Australia and you sent yours at 9am Thurs from Ottawa.
That should give you an idea of the actual time difference between us.
The lace relay sounds like a great idea.

How about using the lace list itself?
Those who normally subscribe to the digested version but would like to
participate in the lace relay could subscribe to the reflected just
for this occasion?
and those who don't want a flood of e-mails could unsub from reflected
and subscribe to the digest
in taking part in a lace relay emailed the co-ordinator in
the day or so before it was due to take place, the list would be set up
ready to start whenever the word was given.

And, anyway... I think, unless we have _hundreds_ of participants, we
can't, possibly, ask the non-participating majority to go through the
rigamarole of subscribing/unsubscribing in order to accomodate the 100
or fewer who are interested...
As yet, with the relay untested, I don't even know
So far, 19 people have sent me their time zones. We have lacemakers in
the following zones: UTC, 1E, 2E, 8E, 10E, 4W, 5W, 6W, 7W, and 8W. If
I'm reading the time zone map correctly, and if the Australians are
still on their winter time in Sept. while the rest of us are on summer
time; and
Thanks to everyone for sending me their time zones. I now have enough
to show that a relay across the world is feasible. So sometime in Aug.
or Sept., let's try to organize a huge, rolling, virtual lacemaking
day. Meanwhile, less ambitious ones can be organized at any time.

It would take some organizing, but it looks like it would be possible to
celebrate the British National Lacemaking day all over the world!!!
Awesome!

Yes, Australia will still be on winter time in September.
This sounds like it could be a lot of fun!!
