Today I decided to do a little dusting in my bedroom using the vacuum cleaner tools. I picked up a doiley that was under a candlestick and there in the dust was a perfect representation of the lace holes! Maybe I should get an award for the dustiest house! To be fair to myself I should say that my DH decided to tear apart our master bathroom over New Year and I have been pushing the dust from the drywall and plastering around only to find that it settles back down behind me. Before I vacuumed and dusted today I had grouted the floor in the bathroom, doing my bit to speed things up. I do keep all my lace pillows in progress under cover in the dining room at the moment, but all this construction work is cutting into my time to work on my competition piece this year. When I was grouting the shower last week I thought to myself that the Queen must miss out on all that kind of fun, having others to do the work for her. It was like icing a giant cake!! I did resist licking my fingers though. :-) Do other lacemakers like to do diy stuff? Janice
