You're right ... (tiny spoiler) Written by Line (1/11/2004 1:01 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, The hat, penned by Vanessa M

... that in the book, Elizabeth does a lot more needlework than in P&P2, but ch. 53 has a line about Elizabeth sitting down again to her (needle)work "with an eagerness *which it did not often command*", so I suspect that sewing etc. was not her favourite pastime!
