Subject: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Mar 10 - 08:23 AM I put this in the music section to try and get the best coverage. I made a shawl to raise some funds for Michael - you can find the thread about his condition here. This shawl is made of acrylic yarn, which will go through the washing machine, albeit, I would suggest, in a net bag to preserve the shape. In view of the colour I've called this one the Daffodil Shawl - just right for spring and summer, very light to wear. The auction will go on for two weeks, finishing at the time of this first post on April 14. I will refresh the thread daily, just to keep it in notice. Bid high, bid often for a good cause. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: SINSULL Date: 31 Mar 10 - 08:36 AM Barracuda is blocking the pictures but I saw this one in person. Quite beautiful. Opening bid: $10 |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: maeve Date: 31 Mar 10 - 08:39 AM It's the perfect name for the shawl; quite lovely, light, and cheerful! It's a beautiful shawl (with an Archie Fisher concert knitted in); well worth high bids. maeve |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Jeri Date: 31 Mar 10 - 09:17 AM Jacqui, the links have no address in them. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Mar 10 - 09:49 AM Jeri - Joe was trying to put photos direct into the thread - I'm sure he can fix this when he sees it. For now, here's a link to flickr |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Michael Harrison Date: 31 Mar 10 - 03:07 PM jacqui.c - I had no idea - what a wonderful thing to do. Let me thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm fairly well drugged right now, this being the week I'm getting another chemo dose, but this is so wonderful of you. Are you going to present this to the facebook page, Friends of Michael William Harrison, or would you like me to, or would you rather keep it within the boundaries of Mudcat? Please let me know if I can help. You are blessed by the heavens and you are loved in Texas. Cheers,..................Michael |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Mar 10 - 03:12 PM Michael - if you could put it on Facebook that would be great - the more publicity, hopefully, the more money can be raised. Bids would have to be posted on this thread. We were lucky , with Kendall's problems, not to have major financial worries to contend with. Crochet is an addiction for me and it's always good to have a good home for the things that I make. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: SINSULL Date: 31 Mar 10 - 04:16 PM $11 LOL |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Mary Katherine Date: 31 Mar 10 - 05:11 PM I can't get the "auction" link to work. Are we just bidding in this thread, then? |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Mar 10 - 07:10 PM Mary Katherine - that's the idea - just bid on this thread, which I will refresh on a daily basis. |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Joe Offer Date: 01 Apr 10 - 03:16 AM Sigh....I sent Jacqui an e-mail with the HTML all ready. All she had to do was paste it into a message. Did she do that? Here are the links I sent her - although you'll notice I changed the links into embedded images in Jacqui's post. For larger images, click these links. Click to view #1 Click to view #2 See how easy it is, Jacqui? -Joe- P.S. $35 |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST,Crowsister Date: 02 Apr 10 - 08:49 AM I've heard about these famous shawls but never seen them till now, and they look super, just the sort of thing I'd like to have - saw some of the other bits posted on flickr too. Yellow just isn't my colour or I might have been tempted. Maybe another time. Fab little beanie hats too. Me want half a dozen in different colours! 'fresh.. |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: VirginiaTam Date: 03 Apr 10 - 11:56 AM Crowsister, there was a jacquic shawl (anthracite black) just behind you on my sofa when you visited on Thursday. It lives there so I can throw it over my neck and shoulders when I get cold. Love my shawl. That daffodil yellow is gorgeous. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Uncle Phil Date: 03 Apr 10 - 12:46 PM Uh oh, my wife just saw the pictures. $50 |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Michael Harrison Date: 06 Apr 10 - 08:22 AM Once again, I'm still sick as a dog from the week-long chemo treatment that ended Saturday night, but not too sick to say, "Thank You," to everyone here at Mudcat and especially jacqui.c....mwh |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: SINSULL Date: 06 Apr 10 - 09:35 AM Michael, You and LilyFestre need to commiserate. She is mid-chemo too and a bit queasy. Every treatment brings you a day closer to good health. Mary |

I'm not all that well this week but we're coming upon a two-week layoff from any treatment and then we start radiation. I'll definitely get a line to her though. Thanks,...................mwh |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: SINSULL Date: 12 Apr 10 - 09:17 AM PM might be better, Michael. That thread only works for me if I click on the "d" next to the thread count. It gives the newest post first and doesn't lock my computer. Sorry you are feeling crappy. Better times ahead. Mary |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 13 Apr 10 - 08:24 AM Exactly 24 more hours left to go......... |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST,Guest: Michael Harrison on wife's computer Date: 13 Apr 10 - 09:29 AM jacqui.c - thanks again for doing this; much love to you. My computer is gone, but if you need to contact me I am on Facebook and I also have an email addy at: harrisongs@und.com Again, I cannot thank you enough for helping to make this rough time of my life go a little easier - may wonderful things come your way. Michael |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 13 Apr 10 - 09:37 AM Michael It's my pleasure - I have the time and a certain ability that I am happy to use in this way. I've been very lucky in my life - many wonderful things have already come my way!- and I think that it is only right for me to put something back in from time to time. Jacqui |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Uncle Phil Date: 13 Apr 10 - 10:56 PM Going once...... |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: jacqui.c Date: 14 Apr 10 - 08:29 AM Congratulations Uncle Phil and thanks to all who took an interest in this auction. This is the link for donations to Michael. It's probably the easiest way to send the money. Let me have an address and I'll get the shawl to you ASAP. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Uncle Phil Date: 14 Apr 10 - 08:52 AM Cool! Paypal'ed from mdmwirth This morning. I'll PM shipping info. Awfully nice of you to do aoo this. Thanks. - Phil |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Zany Mouse Date: 14 Apr 10 - 09:03 AM Only just caught up with this thread. What a wonderful gesture and how like Jacqui. Rhiannon (Proud owner of a Jacqui shawl) |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST,Mary Anne Date: 14 Apr 10 - 02:51 PM Hi, I just saw the money show up on the "Friends of MWH" Web site. You guys ROCK!! All my best, Mary Anne |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST Date: 14 Apr 10 - 09:15 PM Thank you all so very, very much. My wife, Kelly, and I send much love to all who participated - words really can't express how we feel. I am sure, however, that I will be spending much time - after we rid my body of this terrible disease - looking for ways that I can help someone else along their path as you all and so many others have helped me. Joy and God's love to you all,...........harrison |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: wysiwyg Date: 16 Apr 10 - 09:48 PM Folks, I have been waiting for Jacqui's auction to start (and close) before beginning the next one (that I planned awhile ago) with MWH's friend Mary Anne. Watch for it Monday, please, in the hopefully-fixed Auction. A Seamus Kennedy auction is planned for after that-- how cool! Catters Cooperating! ~S~ |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST Date: 17 Apr 10 - 12:04 AM Whoa - folks, this is too much. You all are just wonderful, simply wonderful. Much love to all of you,....................harrison |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 17 Apr 10 - 02:11 AM Okay, folks, after Susan has done with her auction, I'll start one to help Michael out. I'll auction off a couple of signed copies of my book Clean Cabbage In The Bucket (actually I'm a co-author)and a few copies of my new CD Sidekicks & Sagebrush. The book appreciates considerably in value when it is signed, so you should get an extra buck-and-a-half on E-Bay if you have the winning bid. So get to Jacqui's shawl, and W y s i w y G !'s auction, and then mine and chip in and help a fellow 'Catter. |

Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: GUEST,Mary Anne Date: 28 Apr 10 - 12:28 PM Hello all, I tried to join Mudcat several times and keep getting an error message. Any thoughts about what I might be doing wrong? I have completed all the "required fields" but... I really want to know when Seamus puts those items on auction for Michael!! Thanks. Mary Anne (MerryWoman... if I can ever sign up)

I've taken the liberty of sending him a PM for you. I would like to contact you - can you email me at jacquimorseatyahoo.com - the @ changed for spamming purposes. |
Subject: RE: Shawl auction for Michael Harrison From: SINSULL Date: 28 Apr 10 - 12:51 PM And don't forget the sexy in a smarmy way T-Shirt currently up in the auction. Your own WORN Kendall T-shirt, laundered or not - your choice. And a bonus tiny nun if you guess who borrowed my identity to post it. Watch for a bunch of Maine Hideobilia with the added plus that I will ship it to the person of your choice at my expense. Inflict away. And YES I have Spaw's address. SINS |
