Now that 120 years have passed since the Borden double murder, new information is starting to appear from closed files and personal records. I'm sorry I live too far away to make a return trip to the Historical Society. As William Roughead said, "...one cannot have too much of a good murder."

The quotation in the title is from A Private Disgrace, by Victoria Lincoln, which has always been my favorite book on the Lizzie Borden case.
UPDATE: Here's a great visual look at the case. It repeats inaccuracies but the photographs are wonderful.

If birds don't float your boat, how about dogs in needlepoint? Carolyn showcases some interesting ways to display your dog canvases and shows off some lovely stitched dog canvases

Labors of Love
Labors of Love continues to add to their collection of clip on bird canvases. Britstly Thistle just posted a slide show of the three newest birdies to fly into their shop.

I'm waiting for a pileated woodpecker myself. The adults look just like Woody Woodpecker and are the size of crows with wings that are close to three feet wide when they are full grown. We had a baby fly into the garage wall this spring. It sat on the asphalt muttering to itself, then flew to the nearest large tree where it sat for a while before flying back to its nest. I haven't seen any of the pileated woodpeckers since, so I expect it survived its maiden flight and is learning to drill holes in the trees away from the house in our woods with its shy parents.
