I am currently working on a wedding garter for my grand-daughter who is
getting married in Feb 2005, I am also working on a linen and lace tablecloth
and some tatting.
As it is Winter here and for the first time in years it turning into a real
Winter I am getting quite a bit done.

Here in Australia they are called Victorian Embroidery Boxes, I have
made several and enjoy doing them. I have a six sided one to do ( have had it
about 8 years ) and am still getting up the courage to have a go.

I am posting this to chat as I don't think it belongs on Lace.

Maybe course requirements ought to list canoes

Maybe snorkels and flippers might be a better option? ?

Thanks to those who tried to help me view the calandar but no matter what I do
I still get Myth or Mystery on the top. In desperation I even went to Google

Noelene wasn't the only one with snow on the highlands, we had it here in
