I Love this. It *is* a little like milking a 'fairy' cow......I guess, as I haven't milked any kind of cow. I will never make a picot again with smiling over this one and I may even use it.

Yes, Christine still uses that expression when describing how to make a picot! In our workshop two weekends ago, she told us who coined that phrase, but I have forgotten now. Maybe someone else can remember. She was careful to give credit to a number of teachers who have been important to her.

When tensioning up carefully, christine told us to "Milk Fairy Cows" (How do you do that? - Very Carefully!) I wonder if she still tells students that!! It is such a silly phrase, - that one Never, Ever forgets it!!!!!!!!! It still makes me smile when I find myself telling me to "Milk Fairy Cows", if I am being too enthusiastic with tensioning up!!!!!!!! David gave a wonderful talk on bobbins, and the other time Christine gave a great slide show of her collection (or some of it). They were both memorable occasions.
