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...

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? I used to stitch doodles on leftover fabric pieces and took no notes. Of course I'd remember what I did! Now, I use large pieces of fabric & baste lines to mark off...
