Hi All, I'll do my part to make a little mail around the holiday. (DH's computer doesn't always make spaces between the words and I might miss some - sorry!)
A friend who buys and sells things called up to see if I'd be interested in some needlework magazines. He read off a few titles and I said when can I see them! I bought the lot and am quite pleased with them - probably about 25 items. Most are from 1900 to 1920 but a few from the 1880s. A number are Priscilla booklets on different topics - Hardanger, Filet Crochet, Irish Crochet, Armenian Lace, Hedebo and Cutwork Lace. And there is a little tatting in a few of the items. Oh, and there are a few little clippings of different patterns in a few of the booklets. I'm not having any Fiberartists for Thanksgiving but I will enjoy going through them and thinking about them when I'm in the midst of hostessing! I really want to make something in Irish Crochet someday. Therre is a neat pattern for a jabot with Oak leaves and acorn bobbles <G>. Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it tomorrow!
