One month ago today I posted about my commitment to the YMCA's Spin-A-Thon. In case…
Amazing Lace Challenge #6
I really wasn’t going to enter this Amazing Lace Challenge. I had an idea, right from the beginning, but I didn’t think I’d have time to get the photos I wanted. And I figured since I had already won Challenge #3 (thank you, again!) that I didn’t want to push my luck by entering again. But this challenge kept nagging at me. Here’s what we were asked to do:
Your challenge — your final challenge — is to post a photo of your lace being proudly worn or displayed by the strangest, funniest, or most unlikely model you can find.
And here’s what I came up with. This is the Massasoit statue in downtown Plymouth, MA.
This is Massasoit modeling my Amazing Lace shawl.
How’s that?

I absolutely love it! You know I’d have happily sent Ken to you but the ginormous Massasoit is so much better.
Ha, ha, ha….that’s a hoot! I forgot about the challenge. We have a big statue just like yours at our State Capital but for the life of me I can’t remember who it is.
He looks so proud, and somehow so very manly holding your shawl.
Awesome. Massasoit needs a splash of color. That tone on tone loin cloth is so dull. Clinton and Stacy would hate it.
And still he retains his dignity. 😀
That is wonderful.
I thought you were going to try to arrange it as a duplicate loincloth.
that is funny! i’m reading about massasoit in philbrick’s mayflower.
Massasoit, wherever he is, is either giggling his head off or blushing the same color as the shawl. Or maybe both. In any case he looks lovely.
hahahah! HAHAHAHA!
Awesome! Now he just needs a matching loincloth…
he’s looking sexy….
Very creative, but I would love to see the looks on the faces of those watching from the sidelines!
too funny Carole – I hope you win!
That’s GREAT. And yes–he does maintain his dignity. Real Men apparently CAN wear lace loincloths without any problem.
I LOVE this!! Well, done…best laugh of the day!
Ohmigod, you’re going to win Challenge #6, too!
I can’t imagine the shot that would trump this one!
Look Carole! I went away for a while and then snuck in quietly tonight and was able to leave a comment! So what was that all about? (Am I pushing it trying to leave two? lol)
Oh that made me laugh and laugh – thank you.
Perfect. Real men can and DO wear lace!
That’s hilarious!! John Ashcroft would be so proud (didn’t he spend time going around having naked statues covered up in the AG’s office?). Too funny.
Hahaha, love that he’s holding it and not wearing it.
I have to say that’s pretty good!
Fabulous! Peace-pipe pink, of course 🙂
Perfect!
Very manly! And the shawl is such a wonderful color.
I am writing a book that requires a thumbnail sketch of Massasoit. I wish to obtain a head thumbnail sketch of the statue from your site. Will you give me permission to use this thumbnail sketch. I shall give credit to your site. Lois Annette Chalker Askew, 911 Euclid Avenue, Birmingham, Alabama.
