Nice that some of my old arachne friends noticed it. But a little note, i dont make lace anymore. Also Jane! i dont need an extra copy, i had one send for me, when the article was published, but thanks for the offer anyway! This month i also made a projekt for the magazine, a lit for a sewing basquet, wich i call Marie Antoinettes Mobcap. Its a domeshaped lit with embroidered roses and forgetmenots edged with a nice cotton lace- hence the name mobcap, because it reminds me a little of a mobcap. The magazine wanted me to make some projekts for the readers. A purse is in my mind two, when i get more time.

Linda, Thanks for letting us know. I will have to pick up a copy next time I'm at the newsagent. I wonder if Bjarne needs a copy??

Re: [h-cost] Bjarne
I second that and Thank You Lalah for wording it so much better than I would have/could have. I can NOT imagine Bjarne ever being rude and I realize we've never met nor probably ever will, but his whole demeanor online has always been respectful IMHO.

I wish I could speak any other language as well as he does.

Re: [h-cost] Bjarne
May I echo Chris and Lalah, and further suggest (in the great American tradition of free speech) that anyone who has shared hundreds of pieces of useful costume information and dozens of beautiful and inspiring pictures of finished costumes and works-in-progress can be considered to have earned the right to express one political opinion a year on this list. I haven't earned that right yet, but would be delighted to discuss politics off-list any time! Meanwhile, thank you, Bjarne, for your concern for the people in this country. And my own deepest sympathy for those affected by this disaster, both those in Katrina's zone and their loved ones and associates.

While I know we were glad to get updates on people personally known on the Gulf Coast, I think this exchange just proves that politics doesn't belong on this list.
