PLEASE could someone email me Raxhel Jantzen`s email address? (To ) Thanks! Pat P. -- Do not worry about tomorrow`s troubles. Today has enough troubles of it`s own.

After reading Monica Ferris' "Unraveled Sleeve," I just have to do the the Rose Window cross stitch that Betsy was working on in the book. I have looked at local shops and been told that the booklet is out of print. I have looked lots of places online but with no luck. Does anyone have one you...

Anyone have a source for large slate frames? I've not used a slate frame before but would like to give a try on a couple of large patterns from Alice Starmores Celtic Needlepoint; Key Pattern Cushion 25inch by 25inch and perhaps Spiral Chessboard 30inches by 30 inches. On the web Viking sells a...

you wouldn't know how much i have enjoyed reading all the posts and learning so much about framing!!! you are all so open minded about encouraging others to give it a try. giving tons of information and words of wisdom from all your experiences. sharing different ideas on different ways of doing...

Hi Gang, In order to get unstressed some times it pays so just do something different. I click in on the needlework web site http://www.passionericamo.com just for that purpose. I can't understand the language but I do get around the web site fairly easy. It is fun to click on the unknown and get...

I've now worked on two consecutive charts where one of the symbols basically disappeared into the background. On one, one of the symbols was an upright arrow, tall enough to blend in with the graph lines. On the other, one of the symbols is a pale grey "spatter", which, at normal chart-reading...

Hi all! I am a longtime RCTN reader, but I haven't kept up for a year or so. So I am sure this has been asked and answered before, but please forgive me. I have a friend whose grandson will be Bar Mitzvah'd next spring and she would like to embroider a tallit for him. But she can't find any...

Hi Guys, OOOO -- I am having soooo much fun with the embroidery machine -- FINALLY :-). I know, I know -- this isn't the NG for *machine* embroidery but YOU guys are the people I know! I certainly don't want to go tell total strangers about the fun I am having!!!1 Anyway, I have done some little...

OK -- I am working on this really cute little Christmas piece for Raechel, the SMDGD. WE have a Plaid Outlet Store not too terribly far away and i wa there shopping about a month or so ago. One of my friends found this darling little kit with a lamb in the center "Baby's First Christmas" written...

Has anyone on this newsgroup stitched the kits mentioned in the subject line? I really dislike kits as I have found that the cloth and floss are usually of inferior quality. So far I can't find these two patterns available as charts alone. I am finding it hard to spend $36.00 apiece for these...

For quite some time, I've wanted to learn how to work hardanger and have been looking at the books in Nordic Needle and Amazon. My mind is in a whirl. I would love suggestions about books, fabrics and thread. I have the very sharp scissors...that's a start (I hope). I did find the series of...

Has any one seen one of these around? DD is seriously getting into collecting autographs from the local AHL team and I thought if I could find one, it would be great socking stuffer for her. Certainly better than getting her jersey signed or those scraps of paper we are collecting. Cheryl

I have been lurking for a while (posted a couple of times), and needed to de-lurk to ask this question...I have been doing my cross stitch projects on Aida, usually 14 count, ever since I seriously started with stitching about a year or so ago. I want to try to make the leap into 28 over 2 with...

Reading Linda and Shannon's remarks on framing with mats brings up a question in my mind. I just took a one nite framing/matting class and it was all very interesting. But the issue of glass never came up -- probably because the class was aimed at photo framing. So my question is: do you use mats...
