Quick note

I think "awl" is really the Elizabethan pronunciation of "ow". I decided to not work on the couching because I've seen a couple of portraits that make me think my placement of the embroidery and the actual placement are two different things. So I decided to work on the 56 eyelets. I've gotten through 22 of them. Ouch. My fingers do not like me right now.

Actually, it's more like "ohww". The closest form of Elizabethan accent is a modified Somerset/Yorkshire mix, and and has a sound for o that is less like "ouch!" and more like "oh, I see what you mean".

Sure, sure, ruin my (very poor excuse for a) joke. :-p

Actually, I was think of the Ozarks and the older Appalachian dialects as well as some of the more isolated islands off the east coast. But, those probably have a hint of Irish dialect influcening the accents as well as the modern southern accent.
