Ann, I think what you are doing is a fantasic thing - I am sure your children will treasure anything you make.
I'd love to know what pattern you are using. As to creaky gates and not - my dad has had his gate status changed but he is working on the principle that Bloody Mindedness can preserve you forever - it's worked so far!!

I have spent the first 7 months of this year making the lace for 2 heirloom table cloths, and shall spend the next 5 months (God willing!) making the lace for a third. Until I have done all three and mounted them, I am not going to do anything else! The reason? Up until a couple of years ago I had every intention of living forever, with all my faculties (of course!) - even after my first heart attack, when the consultant told me that I was a creaking gate and would go on for ever. The second 'slight' heart attack had me in hospital for a month, during which time I had a double coronary bypass, and lost my 'creaking gate' status. The problem is that I have three children, and every one will have to have an heirloom - hence the three cloths. I just started the lace for the third this evening - and for light relief I am halfway through mounting the first.
