Dear Lace Friends,
I am spending the time anticipating the arrival of granddaughter #1!!
We are going to make a trip to visit our daughter and son-in-law and
grandson #1 in about 12 days. I am making a bonnet for the baby with
smocking and a lace back of Bucks Point lace. The pattern is called
"Cinderella" by Geraldine Stott. It wasn't a hard choice since my
great-great-grandmother's name was Cinderella. She wasn't the first to
be named that either, as her mother was also a Cinderella.
I wonder what would possess a mother living in the rural south in the
early 1800's to name a little girl that. I suppose there has always
been some fascination with the story.
Then, some of us, like me, get to live our happily ever afters married
to our very own Prince Charming's; or Mr. Darcy's ...take your pick.
