Fran (Bloomer?) makes lovely bobbins and other wood tools. I love her Danish
ones, many have bowling ball material for the ball of the bobbin. She's used
bowling ball for tatting shuttles, too. She sometimes comes to IOLI
convention, but often just sends her things with Kathy Kirchner.
Dear Friends
Does anyone know what became of Maeve de Hetre (later Brown)? She
once made me a beautiful pair of bobbins in porcelain which she hand
painted superbly with Australian galahs (birds). Alas they are now both broken.
I last heard of Maeve in Florida about 5 years (or perhaps more)
