Hello All! Just a quick note before my embroidery teaching schedule starts tomorrow, as I must put the finishing touches on a few items! As to wearing lace shorts--Ladies--two words: Spanx & Leggings! Spanx (& other brands) are those spandex undergarments that tame & smooth our bodacious bodies without resorting to personal trainers & hours in the gym. Well worth the investment. Leggings are available in a bazillion colors & camouflage nasty spider veins under short but snazzy outfits. Earlier this year, Target had the best selection, $5 for plain colors & $10 for lace. So--yes we can wear lace shorts & we should--we're not dead yet! Thank you for posting about the Rosemary Shepherd book addenda. Although I don't own it, I was intrigued by the "snowflake spider" & the fir trees. Pittsburgh Lace Group has an extensive library, so I will check there first. Laundry is one of my least favorite subjects--but there was an interesting article in the Erie Times-News last! week about a product called "pureWash". One of the columnists tested it for a month & gave it high marks. According to the article, this is an "electronic gizmo that uses ozone or O3" to clean garments using only cold water & little or no detergent in your regular washing machine. After checking other online sources, it sounds like an interesting product & apparently the process itself has been used commercially for some time because it effectively kills bacteria. There was no mention of the process itself harming fibers so I will wait to hear from Jeri on that side of the question! Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA USA
