Well done to them both! Jim and I will be visiting his parents, who also live at Deal (near Walmer Castle), in October. We'll have to pop down to the older part of town and have a look around - sounds wonderful! Where we live is a lovely area and very pretty with lots of sea shore around, but my...

Many years ago, I purchased an embroidery hoop that was a spring tension hoop. I love it. The little shop has since gone out of business, but before that, the hoops were no longer available. The only information that I have on my hoop is... Ages Ring DBGM and then made in West Germany. Has...

Any good brick and mortar jewelry store will have them (and charms). I've seen them as tiny as infant size in the place I shop (for myself and gifts). Bracelets start (in silver) at about $20, charms are about $10 each. I'd get an adult size bracelet and have the extra links removed. (Save...

Also, I have tons of already cut sweaters that are unsewen(SP?). Don't know what to do with them either. They have piping, sleeves etc but just not put together. Both Mens and womens.

A friend wants to start cross stitch after years of knitting, but she would prefer to start with something pre printed on 14 ct aida such as a card or small picture. Can anyone recommend any smallish kits (preferably available in UK), which have flowers or something a little unusual as their...

Yesterday, I finally got some me time and drove down to a daylily meeting. This one was the public sale (small clumps of daylilies $5 each) with a members auction after. Earlier this summer, I had invited Dr. Brat (aka Elizabeth) to join me - after all I could see her eyes light up at the mention...

Wonderful news Julie! I'll be sure to look for your pieces when I go. Congrats! A "pronto pup" is a MN State Fair staple- A.K.A. a corn dog.

Hi, Deb - ISDN is more "sophisticated" than DSL, and more expensive usually, but a better product. With DSL, your computer connection is "always on", and therefore more vulnerable to hackers and problems such as that.

Can someone refresh my memory as to the online store that carries older, out-of-print patterns? I know it's been mentioned here, several times, but I seem to have lost my bookmark. Thank you! :-))) -- Robin Ingle from New Hampshire
