Can anyone recommend a good table stand? I've seen ones that sit on the table and one that clamps to the table. Is one style better than another? Thanks kindly. Cheers, -- Laury Walkey (Miss) BC, Canada

Can anyone help one of our readers with information on how to do Blanket Stitch Star from Embroider Now by Hetsie van Wyk? Would I recognise it under another name? Liz http://www.classicstitches.com The magazine for stitchers worldwide

The latest issue of Classic Stitches, issue 58, has a fascinating interview with Linn Skinner. All you ever wanted to know... and we even managed to get a photograph! There is some photography of some of her amazing work, too. Anyone interested in ordering a copy can find out more by emailing...

I've not been looking at this group for very long, so I'm sorry that I haven't yet got a grip on who's who. But I just want to thank whoever it was mentioned the design "Flower Power". Having just completed the Serendipity Carolyn Meacham design "Harmony", I was scratching around looking for the...

I would like to frame a piece I did on silk gauze but I have no experience in doing this. Any help, suggestions or sites with information on the web would be appreciated. Mavia

Since I am reading Unraveled Sleeve, I have an allergy question. I am allergic to nickel and most common needles are nickel plated. I have been using 'my favorite needle' for the past 10 or so years-mostly because I like the tiny needle for the way I hold the needle for stitching. It comes in...

I wonder who this nitwit is who is flooding the group with her/his stupid message. Needless to say I have deleted them all, mainly unread, and sure as hell won't be checking into her/his site. Some people really do bug me! Gillian. in full GOW mode

I just posted about a chart I am interested in that I offered to pay for -- even if it is a bit worn, etc. This made me think about how we keep track of where we are in our stitching. I have tried the metal plate with the magnets and that hasn't worked for MOI. I have also tried those static...

Last night I finished mounting "Under the Sea" by BrightNeedle designs for a birth/baptism sampler. You can see it at the rctnp website (Yahoo group for r.c.t.n. photos) in "Sue's photos" folder. I'm not usually one for charms, but this design had me pulling out all sorts of charms and beads in the...

when you mail will you use the us postal service or ups. ups had a better tracking system a few years ago? insurance?

Has anyone else done something as dopey as what I just did? I decided to make the SAL into a Biscornu, or a pincushion for the older folk like me. If I must say so myself, it came out rather nice. The stupid part was when I went to sew the button into the center to give it shape, I found it...

Now, I am sure this is has explored here before. I can't decide if I am a hoop person( that is what I learnt with) I like the nice taut surface, but I undestand it crushes the threads( I never left my work in it). I have done large stuff on scroll frames, but they are harder to transport and...

Orvus is ok? Cheryl

A few of us have followed political events since 9/11 with great interest. In that vein, the Democrats have aired a commercial that is causing quite a stir: positive, negative and a shrug of the cynical shoulders. If you'd like to see it, you can go he http://www.democrats.org/truth/ It...

Is anyone else dismayed by the lack of needlework related posts? I know there is a certain ebb and flow to newsgroups, but when is the tide going to come back in, so to speak?

Hi, 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 you all find the best to use? Hoops? Scoll frames? Q-snaps? I have seen all of them in the shops and the choice is bewildering. I think I would...
