removing a label - on topic - sort off by
Cheryl Isaak
okay - a puzzler for the chemistry types among us. Years ago I had a
plastic first aid kit in the truck. It doesn't fit in the car's glove
box. But dang, it's the perfect size to hold "stuff" for a travel bag.

EXCEPT - I can not get the printed label off....

Hand Embroidery Software by
Annie
I've been searching for hand embroidery software that will allow me to
design my own patterns and/or scan pictures, etc. and then have the
software convert them to an embroidery pattern for stitching.

And then there was Thomas Jefferson's signature... damn near every
stitch...
