Hi Janis and everyone More appropriately the subject line could now be 'J' <vbg> - there is quite a nice letter J in the initials given in the booklet Special Occasions, quite distinct from the 'I' and the 'T' (but maybe not spectacularly so - I agree that in some alphabets those letters resemble each other too closely - and if the initial is too frilled and furbelowed, incomprehensible...). In Maclean's MEthod we wrote capital J in a way resembling a backward treble clef, with a lovely loop that struck down below the line and swooped up again. It was the T, I, and capital Q which were too close.
Having said that - I have just now looked up where there are some pretty initials in the Rosaline alphabet, in the book by Ghislaine Eemans-Moors - hm, the I, J, and T do resemble each other, and the T - what do you know - has the fillip on the *right* Please, could someone remind me who is the author of Special Occasions (is it Cook?) -- bye for now Bev "middle initial J" in Sooke, BC (on Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) Cdn. floral bobbins and New Christmas Bobbin www.woodhavenbobbins.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
