[lace-chat] Antique Bone Fansticks

I have bought two sets of antique fansticks, both made of bone, one of which has gold paint decoration on it. They both have the old, very dirty and torn, fanleaves on them, which I want to remove so that I can make my own bobbin lace to attach. Could anyone please tell me the safest way to re

[lace-chat] Secret Pal Parcel

Dear Secret Pal Thank you for another lovely parcel which arrived this morning. You must have bought loads of that pretty wrapping paper in my favourite colour! This parcel was just great, as always. I love the little teddy, and he supports such a good cause too. I support Breast Cancer Ch

Re: [lace-chat] cleaning the rack from a grill pan?

I always part fill the sink with very hot water and lots of strong thick bleach. Leave the grill in there for about 10 minutes and most of the gunge will just wipe away. The rest you can get off with wire wool. Hope it helps! Dee Palin Gloucestershire To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL

Dear Secret Pal Our postman calls at 7.15 in the morning, so I had your parcel to open before breakfast. As always, it was a really great one. The dogs have already been playing with their toy, and very nicely taking it in turns. The make-up kit is really good and neat - I shall use it when

Re: [lace-chat] Repost - Lace Pumkins - Tiny Url

I would love to be able to send Tiny Urls or even just normal-sized ones ( :>)) to my friends when I have found something really good on the Internet, but don't know how to find one - is it written somewhere on the page I am viewing? Can anyone help me, please? Dee Palin Gloucestershire T

[lace-chat] Secret Pal - again

Hello Secret Pal! I have just unwrapped my Bush Pen, and realised that the Koala can be unclipped from the pen and that the pen is real wood! The Koala is so cute - I am going to put him with the Wombat, and they can keep each other company. Thank you again! Dee palin Gloucestershire T

Hello Secret Pal! Thank you so much for my parcel which arrived this morning. As always, it is full of pretty goodies, and I am delighted. When I go to lacemaking class, several of these will be used - the pretty little pot with the millefiori lid will be used to hold the beads I am using i

[lace-chat] Camelot Lottery Fraud

Over the past few days we have been contacted via email several times saying that we have won £300,000 (Oh - if only!!!). We thought it was a bit fishy, but have gone along with it so far, until they said we had to pay to receive a package from a firm of couriers containing documents we would have

Re: [lace-chat] Lace note cards

I would very much like to see the notecards that Janice Blair writes about, but when I tried clicking on the blue address, I could not get into the photos. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong, please? Thank you. Dee Palin Gloucestershire To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Dear Secret Pal Thank you so much for my parcel which arrived this morning. What a lovely lot of goodies - and I have plans for all of them already! The wombat is gorgeous and I have decided to call him Wally. I love soft toys, and this one is so different and cute. My daughter will be so

Dear Secret Pal I received my parcel today, and am absolutely delighted with it. Did you know my favourite colours? I can't remember if I put them on my info, but the threads are so pretty, and I will definitely use them soon. The gloves are fascinating - I had never heard of such things be

I hope someone can help me as Brenda is away. I have joined the above scheme, and have sent off my parcel, which has been received and acknowledged. But I have not received one myself. I do not know if one was posted and has been lost, or if the system has broken down somehow. Can anyone ad

[lace-chat] Re: [lace] names and place on arachne

I was not talking of sending my name to my Secret Pal, but on lace chat/lace putting my name and where I come from when I send in a message as suggested by someone else. I thought that if I did this, my Secret Pal would be able to tie that up with parcels she had received from me, even though I

Hello everybody! I am having loads of trouble with my computer and can only get online once a day, if I am lucky. 'They' say it could be weeks before it is sorted out properly. However, I am still intending to participate in Secret Pal etc, but please don't be worried if I can't post things onli

[lace-chat] Bobbins

I saw the Arachne bobbin on eBay, and it looks very similar to one issued by the Lace Guild as a Membership bobbin a couple of years ago. I think it must have been made by the same person. BTW is there in Arachne Membership Bobbin? I would love to have one, if there is. Dee Palin Forest of

[lace-chat] celluloid bobbins

I showed this item on eBay to my DH who studied them carefully and pronounced that the pegs on the side were to stop the bobbins rolling across the pillow when in use! I have to say I don't find them attractive, and wouldn't want them on my pillow, no matter what they were made of. To unsub

[lace-chat] Lenka Suchanec

I have been reading all the emails about Lenka, and would like to add my two-penn'orth!!! It seems to me as if Lenka has had some kind of personal tragedy, and has decided that she cannot teach any more. I sympathise completely, and think that she should be treated with compassion. I realis
