Needlework Tablecloth by
Russell Miller
I have....had a tablecloth that I bought it at a second hand store. I
loved this tablecloth. But that was before my washing machine ate it.
Yup, just chewed it up and spit out all the little pieces. This
tablecloth seemed to be a fine white cotton or linen. It ironed up
beautifully. It had...

New to stitching by

I have just recently started to learn to stitch... cross stitch for now and
hopefully needlepoint later. I have a question about frames. What kind do

for needleworkers, and what you like best?
Thanks,

Books by
Stefania Bressan
I've just received by snail mail a book that I've ordered after the
thread on the books.
It's Ambuter's "The open canvas". I've found it used, for a good
price. And I'm very happy, especially for the filet, reticello and
hedebo instructions.
For those of you that already own it, you may be...

Question about Doodle Cloths by
NancySue
Susie Jordan wrote:
How do any of you utilize doodle cloths. Do you make a list
somewhere about the stitches you used, or what?

needles . Has anyone else done that? It would be so pretty to have sitting
next to the work.

Book "From the Archives" by
Sampler45
Does anyone have Eileen Bennett's book From the Archives? If so, can you tell
me briefly what it contains and what you think of it? I've seen it on a few
websites, but no one has a list of articles or a synopsis of what's in it.
Thanks.

DMC Floss changes by

Just spoke with someone at DMC. No colors have been discontinued. This was
an error and Just Cross Stitch will be making a retraction. I panicked
because a lot of the colors are used in our designs.

Not OT as a matter of fact! I keep those tubes that whisky comes in to keep
finished and unfinished projects in, rolled up. Fred - you`re right - out of
