Evertite bars by BDS2pds
EVERTITE BARS: PRODUCT REVIEW Needlepoint canvas sags as you work it, it always has and it always will. People who work on frames know the struggles we always had with saggy, baggy canvases. If you use scroll frames, you tighten over and over again. If you use stretcher bars, you had to take...

Sandy Orton's Exquisite Lily Sampler by Pat Porter
I have done her Garden of Friendship, and loved doing it. It still needs framing as John isn`t too enthusiastic - he thinks it`s a bit "Wishy-washy"! I think it`s absolutely beautiful, and just the thing for the pale green walls in our bedroom! I`m not QUITE sure about the lily sampler. I love...

Missing chart by Nancy Poehlmann
Dear RCTN folks, I unearthed a UFO that I'd dearly like to finish, but I cannot unearth the chart. Any help would be very much appreciated. Dating from probably the early 80's, the chart is very art nouveau, with a auburn-haired girl in a yellow dress holding a daffodil. The border is green...

Mirabilia's Cinderella ? by Caryn
