Hi Jenny et all
When demonstrating I get asked some strange questions, and will try to
remember to write them down in future.
Mostly, people whisper in the background to each other, and often it is:
"that woman is doing tatting". To which I pipe up and say that I have no
idea how to tat. The latter is true, though our group has a tatting workshop
in January, so I won't be able to say that any longer.

damp and dank).



I found a few tidbits in some  quite old Embroiderers' Guild newsletters
that might amuse, to share
 
7.  When I was giving a lecture, I wore an antique lace shawl.   After 
commenting that it was at least 100 years old, one of the students asked,
"Did you do the work yourself?"

LOL, I would have said "Yes, I was just 13 at the time" just to see if they
really meant the question. Then again I am prone to answer stupid questions
with non nonsensical answers.
