Lace-stub
Hi Julie - since there may not yet be enough lace stubs for a completely separate category, I've made a compromise suggestion at WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Criteria. Have a look and see whether you think it's a reasonable idea. Grutness...  wha?  12:03, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thanks
Hi Julie, thanks for alerting me to the lace project. I'm sorry i can't participate right now, because i'm really busy in real life at the moment, but i'll contribute more as soon as i can. Also i'm not really a lace expert. I've been dabbling in several lace making techniques as offshots of crochet and embroidery, and might be able to contribute pictures of such works, but i don't know that much about historical lace.

Review request
Hi!

I am been doing quite a lot of additions to Wikipedia in the field of bobbin and other lace, and would appreciate friendly (or otherwise) eyes to check over what I've done and change or add to them as necessary.

I am a bobbin lacemaker and have a site teaching people how to make lace, with my own patterns on it as well: http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/lace/index.htm As you can see from those patterns, I am not necessarily a rigorous follower of accepted styles! I also have a lace collection, from elderly relatives and bought from chairy shops. I have recently put it online: http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/lace/collection/index.htm In trying to identify the collection, I naturally started with Wikipedia, to find a lack of information, and worse still, pictures. So I had to look else where, but then thought I ought to supply what I now know to Wikipedia. So you can see that the additions are not from an expert in lace styles! But a start is better than nothing, and I have been careful about supplying references, etc. I have also added pictures, usually from my own collection, since that is OK about copyright, or from out-of-copyright books. Unfortunately, this means that I am only about 90% sure of the accuracy of the pictures, and less than that on their quality. Still, something is better than nothing. Here is what I've done...

New articles: Genoese lace, Cluny lace, Maltese lace, Barmen lace machine, Princess lace, Renaissance lace, tape lace

Expanded from stub: Bedfordshire lace, Lace machine

Added existing picture: Metal laces, Maltese lace (the pillow)

Added picture from my own lace collection: Barmen lace machine (lace), Cluny lace, Maltese lace, Princess lace, Renaissance lace, tape lace, Bedfordshire lace, Limerick lace, Bucks Point lace (simple example), Chemical lace

Added picture from elsewhere (out-of-copyright books): Barmen lace machine (machine), Genoese lace, Antwerp lace, Bucks Point lace (multiple examples)

Jo, thanks for your contributions! I'll take a look, and see if I think any changes are needed. Perhaps we can encourage more participation. Julie E. (talk) 19:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
