[lace] Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries TV Series
I haven't seen any mention of this series on Arachne, though maybe Aussie Gumnuts have. One of the Estonian commercial TV stations has been showing this series, which is based on the books written by Kerry Greenwood. There are 17 books altogether plus a short story collection, which I enjoyed listening to last year. Set in 1928-29 and very well researched. Tatting is mentioned in 2 of the books & surprisingly bobbin lace in only one. But I was pleased to see Ashleigh Cumming's character Dot Williams wearing a collar edged in tatted lace in the 4th Episode, as well as a simple Torchon lace collar in Episode 5 -"Almonds and Raisins" & Episode 6 -"Ruddy Gore". I highly recommend the books.

[lace] Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries TV Series
Pene wrote about the Miss Fisher series and I have been watching some of them by streaming Acornonline.com via our Apple tv box and tonight I watched the Almonds and Raisins episode. Her assistant Dot was wearing the Torchon lace collar which is very wide and flowing. I think I spotted another lace collar in an earlier episode but it could have been cutwork. This series is available until February 17th and if you have a Roku box or Apple tv you can get a month of free viewing. Great for expats as we are also watching Midsomer Murders and Doc Martin. Looking for more lace in future episodes. Janice http://www.lacemakersofillinois.org - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Thank you - I love to have a good mystery waiting on my bedside table, and a lace theme will be the cherry on the cake! It will be a long time before the series appears on British television, I fear, but I will look out for it. Linda Walton, (snowed in already, in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, U.K.).
