Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I mentioned this on the "hope chest" thread, but thought I'd also post here. If you've never looked at a magazine called
Piecework you might want to -- it's loaded with great articles about historical and contemporary needlework! Just gorgeous stuff!

The January/February issue has loads of knitting things -- and the info is detailed enough to build a unit around if you're so inclined...

Blimey, is this the same magazine that was started back in the early 90's? I'd forgotten all about it.

It is YUMMY! Have you all seen these:

Inspirations

and

Australian Smocking

Not much in the way of knitting though. But just delicious. I'm hoping to renew my subscriptions this Spring (makes a nice birthday prezzie)! I might need one to Piecework, too!

Oh, Mary and Nissa, I love Piecework, not to mention Sew Beautiful and the Creative Needle!

Oh, I love those, too. Everytime they come, my heart leaps. I get Threads too.

Just a magazine junkie.
