Season's Greetings, I would like to extend my thanks to all the lacemakers that contribute and read the list. It is encouraging to talk with other people who love lace so first of all, let me say I appreciate the list. Secondly, I appreciate the lace exchange for Christmas cards and enjoy the website with the cards posted and also the wonderful patterns the lacemakers share. One of these days, I hope to join in, and also to share patterns. And finally, I want to add that I have given only tatted pieces for Christmas presents this year. Most of my exchanges have been tatted Christmas Snowflakes, so throughout the month of December I have finished about 15 snowflakes, one of which is Celtic, which I had not previously tried before. As for my projects at the moment: In Bobbin lace, I am doing the two birds #75. It is rather fun that I purchased the book back in 2002 and I am finally getting to work the pattern that drew me to Yusai Fukuyama's book call "100 New Bobbin Lace Patterns." I am just getting a good start on the first bird. My Honiton pillow has a trial piece to learn raised Honiton. And my travel pillow has a straight lace on it, which I use for demos, and such. I hope everyone enjoys the holiday season and that 2009 brings you many hours to work lace, enjoy life and visit with your friends.
