It's tatting with some outer rows of mignonette tatting. It looks like
the round Spiderweb doily from the Tatters Treasure Chest.

Hi lacers,
I realize that most of the folks on arachne are
bobbin and needle lacers, but I know there are a few
tatters amongst the crowd. So, for the interested, the
web pages are up and running now with a working

I've finally managed to get all of the models

On a Canadian two dollar bill, the flag flying over the Parliament
building is an American flag.
False. It's the Ontario flag on the old $2 bill, now we have
a $2.00 coin.
I love these lists of bits of trivia. I just wish they

Hope you're all starting the new year off with a

I must be lucky. I get black gray and red
squirrels in my back yard. Although, I have only had
one red squirrel. It chewed it's way into my bird
house one day and when we took the bird house down
to fix it, the red squirrel disappeared. The blacks
and grays chase each other up and down

Hello all,
Some time ago, years maybe, there was a discussion of

A few years ago the city of Toronto had a herd of
300 critters made, but ours weren't cows they were
moose. Much more appropriate that cows and the horns
are useful for hanging up a lot of hats and coats.
Some of them were very creative at least one of
them was decorated in a Mountie outfit.

I noticed several people commenting on problems

While shopping, a friend found some walnut shaped

I have just updated some information on my
