To be honest, my arthritic fingers fly the fastest when I am 'retro-lacing' - and all you lacers know exactly what I mean! The English Midlands spangled bobbins always attract much attention, and are a good contrast to the other pillows with work-in-progress on which I use other styles of bobbins. Everyone likes the memories that can be associated with the use of spangled bobbins - my years as a den mother, when the Hart Square resident net-maker was a Cub Scout; the bits of beads and bangles from jewelry accumulated over the years; my employer's hummingbird logo; Santa Claus; Halloween bats....   Hart Square is not just a place for the memories of our ancestors, but also our own.
