That is gorgeous. Glad you made it to Queen's Park for the reveal before we got 8" of snow. I saw The Addams Family Musical put on by one of our local theatre groups and it was a lot of fun. Quite kept to the dark whimsy of the 1990s movies. You Can't Do That on Television and SCTV are two of my old faves. Also, if I may say so, you are looking fabulous!

I saw someone who had crocheted a bunch of lace doilies , all in different designs, and a put them together as a kind of asymetric table runner. It gave it a fresh new look. Check it out. Your collar is gorgeous!!!

Table runner isn't a bad idea. I remember seeing somewhere that someone made a wedding dress out of doilies, so a dress might also be an option (more as adornment considering how sheer these doilies are 🤣)

The tatted collar looks amazing and is a great contrast to the simple dress. It looks lovely together and the collar elevate the dress to something more formal (despite how comfy it looks). I want to make a lace collar one day (bobbin lace rather than tatting, as I am better at it) and your project solidified this plan.

One of my favourite tv shows of all times was canadian, I'm pretty sure. The one show about using ~science~ to solve stuff where the science was actually part of the mystery rather than a device to artificially delay the plot while you Wait For Results. Also shockingly realistic for something that bordered on science fiction.

You really should talk about "The Hilarious House of Frightenstein" and how Billy Van changed how TV was done. Namely setting up a charecter, then shooting the entire season's skits in just a few days, then setting up and shooting the next character. Also how Vincent Price shot all his bits in 3 days for 2 seasons worth of shows.

Technical question: I am hopeless at shuttle tatting, but I am having reasonable success with needle tatting. Is there a difference between needle tatting patterns and shuttle tatting patterns? My granddaughter is a massive Wednesday fan, and thought a black Wednesday dress would make a reasonable gift, but it’s very…monochromatic inky. This collar might be more interesting than anything I could crochet
@MaireColclough

I believe the skills in shuttle and needle tatting are fairly transferrable. I'd recommend taking a look at the pattern booklet (linked in the video description) and see if the motifs look like something you can figure out 😃

The CFCs that contributed to the hole in ozone have been banned and mostly fazed out. The hole is still there but it's repairing and shrinking. It's a win for the earth. 😊 Fun video. I'm not nor have I ever been a goth but I loved the 90s Adams family. This is a fun video. Don't bother with Twilight if you like character progression or growth. Bella doesn't grow at all, and her boys are equally highschool mentality despite all years of life the vampires have and experiences that happen in the books. It was fine to read once and that's about it. Poor kitty! Hugs for the baby. ❤

I've got an orange and white tabby and a void fluff. There is no color that doesn't show fur from at least one of the 2. I have embraced the cat hair as proof that I am owned and loved by 2 adorable fluffs. It's worth it even if the most fashionable people disagree. I dress for me and that includes cat hair. 😊 Worrying about a tiny bit of fluff on my clothes is a waste of my time. I'll let someone else waste their time on it instead. 🤣

​@@MaireColcloughthat's by design. The people very invested in not letting us take legislative action and create regulations to counteract climate change are, of course, also very invested in not letting it be pointed out that that strategy worked very well for the ozone crisis. Combine that with the natural human tendency to forget why we do a thing because it's successful and thus the problem isn't being experienced and our brains start telling us that clearly it couldn't have been *that* bad in the first place...
