Hello Everyone,
I received my lovely Christmas card and ornament from Sue Clothier in
England. The hand made card depicted the three Wise Men and a whole
sky full of stars. One of the stars is a beautiful needlelace star made
from glittery thread. It is quite gorgeous hanging on our tree. Th

My apologies to my card exchange partner. I had my wisdom teeth pulled and
haven't felt well. My card goes to the post office today at 4:00 pm. So
sorry!
I begged and promised favors to get my DH to help me make a Puerto Rican
travel pillow. The pattern was the one at lace

I sent this to Lace Chat yesterday, and I should have sent it to Lace.

The white card base has a tree-shaped cutout. The cutout has a padded tree in

Hi Dorte
Unfortunately I havent got a picture of the Honiton initial I did, it was
before I had a scanner. But I can look for the pattern in my pattern box (I
photocopied it from a book but cant remember which one it was!) if youd like to
know. It was in 120 cotton and was an italic type
I'll put my hand up as well!
