Sorry, Tamara, but Red Hatters wear ***red*** hats. Reverse the colors,
and make black flowers on the red hat and you might have something
interesting. <G> When I was at the state fair one day, they had Red Hat
day. There were Red Hatters all over the place. I'd never seen such a
variety of red hat styles before. Hmmm....I bought a burgundy hat while I
was there. Wonder if someone thought I was one of that group??
Speaking of state fair, we had up to 11 lacemakers there at one time to
demo. We had a constant stream of people who stopped and watched. Of
course, we had several versions of the tatting lady, but most people were
really interested. I didn't get any prospective students, but a lot more
people were educated on the existance of handmade lace. I think I did send
a prospective student to the lacemaker from that town, so maybe there was
at least one new lacemaker from the demo.
We spent all day on two different days, so a lot of people saw lacemaking.
I finished the project I was doing, and now have to start another one.
Happy lacing,
