[lace-chat] FW: Royal Wedding

2004-05-14 Thread Tune
Hi Everyone,
This is for those of you who would like to see the Danish Royal Wedding
live. One of our TV stations is transmitting live on the internet and there
is also English translation.
I'm off to my favourite position on the sofa to enjoy it all. The actual
ceremony is at 4pm Danish time.

I've not seen this one before, it appeared on another list I am on and I
thought my Arachne friends might find it amusing.

One day, a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river when her
thimble fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord appeared and
asked, Why are you crying?

The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water, and she
needed the thimble to make her living.

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden thimble. Is
this your thimble? the Lord asked.

The seamstress replied, No.

The Lord again went down and came up with a wooden thimble. Is this your
thimble? the Lord asked.

Again, the seamstress replied, No.

The Lord went down again and came up with a silver thimble. Is this your
thimble? the Lord asked.

The seamstress replied, Yes.

The Lord was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all three
thimbles to keep, and the seamstress went home happy.

Some time later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the
riverbank, and her husband fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord
again appeared and asked her, Why are you crying?

Oh, Lord, my husband has fallen into the water!

The Lord went down into the water and came up with Mel Gibson. Is this your
husband? the Lord asked.

Yes! cried the seamstress.

The Lord was furious. You lied! That is an untruth!

The seamstress replied, Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding.
You see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would have come up with Tom
Cruise. Then if I said 'no' to him, you would have come up with my husband.
Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor
woman and am not able to take care of all three husbands, so that's why I
said 'yes' to Mel Gibson.

The moral of this story is: Whenever a woman lies, it is for a good and
honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.

So, Heather
I don't see your picture on Lacefairy, have you sent one to Lori so we 
know what you look like? It is fun to go to Lacefairy and put faces to 
names. Or is your pictures posted somewhere else (and I've missed that 
message?) :-)

[lace-chat] booklets, not bobbin lace

2004-05-14 Thread Haddad
Hello all - 

Since many, if not most, bobbin lacers also have interests and abilities in other 
gentle arts, I'm offering some booklets here on other arts.  They are free, and if 
more than one person asks, I will pull the names out of the proverbial hat for them.

1) A weaving Primer (Weave-easy series #7225)

2) Lace Net Embroidery placemats and Tablecloths, by Rita Weiss. (American School of 
Needlecraft #3035)

3) Lace Net Darning in Color, (McCall's Craft Book M/8415)

Please contact me privately with any questions re: contents, and interest in having 
any.
