The Blue Parrot.

Oh dear.. I love fairy tales.. I just finished reading King Arthur for the umteenth time :)
The irony of this is I signed up last year for a subscription to Easton Press's printing of Lang's entire Fairy collection--leatherbound, gold pages, the works. They're beautiful and worth every penny, but the idea that I can just download them is FUNNY.
Lydia, your lesson was a lot more expensive than mine, I paid for a reprint of a French tatting book that is available for free online at the Antique Pattern Library :-(
