Hello Lacemakers, Thank you for the Christmas cards for us all to enjoy. I especially liked Brenda's card for the music which continued to play even when I went back to reading my emails. In the Bleak Mid Winter used to be a favorite Christmas tune of mine, brough back memories of school in England and the photo certainly looked bleak. Carolina's lace was so pretty with the snow falling. I envy you people who are clever on the computer as well as with your lace. Thank you to Bev and Barbara for the Christmas card exchange. I think this year the majority of designs so far are angels and candles. I loved what Shirley had done with my design. I had not thought of making it into a green Christmas wreath when I designed it but it makes sense, especially with the addition of beads. I wonder if they were on the back of the lace as well to make it truly 3 dimensional? I would have liked to receive any one of the cards we have seen so far, but I love to see the British robin design as that denotes Christmas to us ex-pats. My English friends love to get cards with the robin on as we miss seeing them over here. If I don't post again I want to wish all of you a Happy Christmas or Happy Holidays, whichever you prefer and a prosperous and healthy New Year with more time to make lots of lace. Love, Janice
