Monday moan - returned book

Well the book which stole the picture of my bookmark arrived on Friday lunchtime.  It was on its way back to the ebayer shortly after.  I took a photo or two to illustrate how badly the contents are and then wrapped it in the same packaging to send it back.
I’m afraid I have to share just a very small proportion of the introduction with you as I find it highly amusing that we’ve all been enjoying a ‘roll in the hay’ all these years without even knowing it!!

I hope you get your refund. Going back to bed obviously. 🙄

Such stupidity! This self publishing books will cause all kinds of problems I'm sorry to say! It was probably honestly created for small family, vacation, self interest skills or like I want to do a record of my life hobbies some day? Sad!!!

Good luck re the refund!!

Hmmm. I used to tat on the way to roll OUT the hay.

'Rolling in the hay'! So that was the cause of all that laughter coming from a tatting class in the next room at the Fringe!

The picture of your bookmark is actually mine. I posted it to my blog tattingandbeading.blogspot.com on February 23, 2011. I was never contacted with a request to use of my picture in their book.

I do apologise Brigitte Tats. I’ve only just found your comment and released it. I apologise. Least I got the bit right about it being my pattern!! I did wonder about the tassel as I can’t remember doing a tassel on a bookmark!!! I claim a senior moment!!!
