In response to "what is this?" by Gillian Murray
I accidentally hit the wrong key, and sent it directlyto koalamum. So I thought I would resend via the group. Marlitt is a rayon thread made by Anchor ( in Germany). I have no idea if it is still made, but I came across a clearance in a Walmart ( Canada) that I couldn't resist. I have several...

Thanks Cheryl! by Cristilyn Schoenborn
The floss you sent has arrived. I especially love the blue color, it's so cheerful! I've been going through a rough patch lately, and the floss in the mail brightened my day. I will certainly pay forward the act of kindness when I get a chance. Cris

Peri Lusta FILO- any one know what this is! by Linn Skinner
Cheryl: This was a UK product (manufactured who knows where) and actually I found it still on sale at Dainty (a UK wholesaler) a few years ago. More or less a pack of assorted skeins on the low end of the price range. I too have some bits of it from old work baskets. Linn Skinner Skinner...

Stitching in Rotation by Addie
There's been a lot of talk recently about people stitching in rotation. What does that really mean?? If, as I assume, it means stitching one project one day and then another the next or something like that, then how long does it take to complete something??? Are there any tips out there to make...

Thread carries on model by Brenda Lewis
I received the October "Just Cross Stitch" this weekend. Page 51 shows a model which has three lines of writing, a house, and two more lines of writing. The thread used for the saying is very obviously carried not just from word to word, but from line to line. It is also carried from the vine...

My Grandmother's Work by KDLark
Today we stopped by my mother's and the subject of my grandmother's crochet came up again. I had either decided on my own or had been led to believe that most of it had been lost or tossed out my my mother, so I was surprised when Mom was the one who brought it up. She said that she had a couple...

What to do with first efforts? by fishnstitch
Mmeindia wrote: What do you all do with your first efforts in a particular craft or style? I suppose I could give them as gifts (some of my first needlepoints are hanging in my relatives' houses and they are treasured, though I'm way beyond them in skill now), or keep them around in a box...

I just wanted to share on here that a special shopowner has passed away. Donna Ashley of And Needlework in Middlefield, Ohio, died last week after a long battle with cancer. She had written me in June to say that she had sold the shop contents to someone in Maine, because her health had declined...

For Canadinas only. Gun control again. by Allison and Chip Orange
Jim, Have been meaning to write to you for some time about this. Although you should do everything in your power to do something about this, Canadians should see their glass as at least half full. You are so much farther along than the United States as far as this is concerned. Read an article...
