I have a Christmas request. I know many have received a Christmas card from one of our dearest members. Miss Shirlene has been a member since near beginning of Cute. The last year or so has been quite difficult for her family. Resolution is still several months away. Please go to www.loveoflace.com and place an order. She can send it to your gift recipient and most likely still make it by Christmas. Or send a New Year’s Card. Even if you don’t need one or could make it yourself, buy a doily for yourself for your heirloom chest. We are all she has and when you are selling to an audience that can “make it themselves” you don’t get many orders. So I am asking to go beyond your needs and help meet the needs of Shirlene and Rick. Let’s show her how much we care this holiday season. Here is the pic of my card. I feel blessed to have it and to be a part of this fine global family. Hugs and Merry Christmas Live Laugh Download Stitch! Christine

Thank you all for doing such a great job in keeping me busy - these last couple days - I am getting close to filling each of your orders and I just have them at the Post Office for regular mail delivery by Tuesday, my time. I sure appreciate all the love and support you have given me - with your orders - this is the 1st time - I have ever had more than one order at a time to fill, too - so it really gave me and my machine a work out - Hehehe! Unconditional Love, Shirlene

Thank you so much for giving Shirlene a wonderful day! She still needs more to keep her busy all week, so please I just posted on my facebook her website. I am sure many of you have many more friends than I do so please lets start an avalanche and tell everyone we know about www.loveoflace.com. Thank you and Merry Christmas, may you be blessed the whole year through!

This angel is done is both gold and silver metallic thread - isn't she lovely? She isn't on my website - but is available for purchase - if anyone is interested in her. Email me: shirlene@loveoflace.com

cfidl by cfidl 19 Dec 2011

Since I work with cotton, I was astounded to see 100% metallic. Today I conquered 100% rayon! Next polyester and metallic! I now understand the need for high stitch count, when you use a thinner thread you need a much lnger piece and many more stitches!

You all have been so wonderful today - I have been busy - which is a good thing - even though it is my first real day out of bed - except the other day - when I watched movies on the couch - I was sore and in pain - but I did get through most of the day and will continue to work on things tomorrow and meet the postman on Tuesday with a few orders going out - to the ones that were so kind to purchase from my website - you blessed me with these - it will help me either get my meds - that I have been without for 3 months or will allow me to get Rick something for Christmas - you got it - it will be for Rick - hehehe! Thanks - you honor me - with your kindness.

Shirlene, I ordered two sets that I wanted sent to my grandchildren. Used Paypal and added a note of where I wanted them sent. Hope that is okay.

Paypal would not allow me to enter their addresses as valid mailing addresses. Don't know why.

I am delighted with my purchases and encourage others to check out your site.

Here are 3 doilies that Shirlene made. I told her southwest and just sent the money via paypal to shirlene@loveoflace.com and she did the rest. This time I am getting angels... angels... angels! I really can't make these so it is fortunate I got a christmas check today! Mine are all cotton because that is the tension I get along with! Her stuff sparkles!

Is that one of those 3D ones? With applique and FSL? It is pretty.

cfidl by cfidl 17 Dec 2011

It is really pretty and it is indeed applique and free standing lace. I did not even know this existed! It is from criswell, and I have been there. She is a Christmas Angel.

shirlener88 by shirlener88 17 Dec 2011

Christine, thanks for posting this Christmas Angel - the colors are not true to life - but it is still very lovely, isn't it?
