That one is so scrumptuous. The details shown - with the texture - I so
much wish I could see it up close and personal. Very interesting how the embroiderer formed the bullion knots - some quite loose, long, to create that "spark". There is so much from this book that you can use and try. I'm so darned timid, but this book is helping me rethink some things.

Linda Wright was talking about satin stitching scales, and I immediately thought of the fish on the cover (and the same as a project). The gorgeous coloration. And Cathy Collins talked about loving purple, and I don't think there's a single purple in that entire book! grin I DID put some "plum" in my kitchen, and my dining room has dark "wine" with basil. That's about as purple as I'm going this year. I'll try to get more brave next year. Dianne Diane, The fabric she recommends-------------65% silk/35% nylon-----------is that gererally available your side of the pond? I don't think I could get it over here---------I assume it is quite a close weave? How "thick" is it? Is it like working on satin? Do you know of a mail order supply? That white peacock with peonies is awesome. Thanks! Elma in Glasgow, Scotland, UK (Remove spex to reply by email) |

I can' tell who wrote what in this post, but Anne Coulter is perhaps one of the
most angry, power monger I've seen in any public woman, lately. First of all, and this is not necessarily a slam, but she is completely ill with anorexia. Last time I saw her on Bill Maher when was her six feet tall, but could not have weighed more than 100 pounds. Then I think about what I saw yesterday: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...168/4s8z4.html Then, after my astonishment, went he http://www.usflag.org/flag.etiquette.html To be certain this glaring use of the flag for autographing, PARTICULARLY IF IT IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES and with that, recalled what Anne Coulter supports and how truly off she is. There's a name floating around about her in the political newsgroups my husband posts to. Anne Thrax. I call her Anne O'Rexia. Not kind, but she literally buried Bill Clinton to within an inch of his death.

I don't know about the Coulter/Clinton connection, or about her health -
though I do know she was ranting like a maniac when I heard her. I thank you for pointing out President Bush's terrible manners regarding our country's flag. How could he be so stupid? Well, actually . . . . I think we've discussed that before. grin Dianne animaux wrote: I can' tell who wrote what in this post, but Anne Coulter is perhaps one of the most angry, power monger I've seen in any public woman, lately.

Heaven forbid anyone should expect the subject line to ACTUALLY reflect the
subject. And heaven forbid anyone should try to help others out by changing it. Damn, who peed in your corn flakes?

I change subject lines frequently. You can check and see. But I never just change the subject line without adding something; to do so isn't helpful, it simply needlessly duplicates posts Damn, who peed in your corn flakes? Nobody peed in my cornflakes. What you did was rude and I objected. You don't even have the grace to sign a name so that people know who they're talking to. Even a "handle" allows people to follow the conversation more easily.
