We could take that one step further and do a "book" with seven fairy tales or nursery rhymes containing seven things. I'm asure we can find them if we try. I can think of Snow White and her seven dwarves, The little tailor and his seven giants, Puss in boots (the boots go 7 leagues at a time), the girl and her seven swans(can't remember her name, she has to knit 7 nettle jumpers to free her 7 brothers from the spell), Tom Thumb (I'm sure he's got seven brothers)... Tha would be enough project for all the lacemakers in the world, I think :-))
Helene, the mad froggy from Melbourne > Now *that's* a project big enough for arachne! Seven people make > wives, > forty-nine beginners make sacks (each in a different color and/or > ground > stitch), 343 people make cats, 2,401 people make kittens. B-D Yes, but the cats and the kittens are in the sacks. And I'm sure you wouldn't see all the 49 sacks at one time - if I were carrying 7 sacks some of them would be hidden behind my body and behind the other sacks. But I also can't imagine that all the sacks would stay closed with so many irritated kitties inside, so I think you'd see: 1 man 7 wives, a number of sacks appearing from behind the wive's backs or lying on the roadside where somebody dropped one and hasn't noticed yet a few cats and kittens who have managed to make their escape, running every which way ... That makes a great subject for a group project because the number of objects isn't pre-determined: dedicated trustworthy volunteers would make the man (who I bet is carrying *nothing*) and his rather harried 7 wives, lots of people could make sacks and you could have a few cat-makers, but if any of the sacks or cats didn't get made you wouldn't have a problem.
