Is there anything that you don't do, and do exceedingly well?!? LOVE this week's charm, as I have every other one. Your Charm School is rather like our CQI Challenges, but using your own resources, shortening the time frame, and with a finished item as a result. Genius!

Did you count threads for it or just poke the needle in close to the previous stitch? Who needs machine-perfect stitches when you have such style????? Not you! How large is the finished charm?

This heart is lovely.<br />Re. Monte-Cristo, the Chateau d'If is a small island in front of Marseille, 6km from the shore. Each year, there is the Monte-Cristo challenge, consisting of swimming from Chateau d'If to the shore. Several of my co-workers have attended already.<br />Alexandre Dumas visited Marseille after the book has been published, of course he went to Chateau d'If, and the janitor there told him he knew Edmond Dantes very well. Alexandre Dumas was kind enough not to tell him that Dantes never existed.<br />That was my bit of local history. And I realize I never read this book, although I read all the Musketeers series... Must change that!verobirdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12968111905760607177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-60425672846381371942009-06-30T20:10:59.537-05:002009-06-30T20:10:59.537-05:00You are learning so much at Charm School!
