OK, the person I quoted couldn't count. "Encyclopedia of Needlework" was really title #10,001. Still worth perusing. :-) -- Brenda Help Project Gutenberg--become a Distributed Proofreader http://www.pgdp.net/

I've put three new photos on r.c.t.n.p.: The mermaid box I finished for DD's Birthday, the mermaid quilt I finished just today for DN's Birthday, and the international bears from Donna Giampa that I stitched a few years ago and gave away, but who were visiting me recently vbg Sue --...

My daughter has now gotten to the point where she would like to do model stitching. Is there any advice you can give for me to pass on? I told her about the group here but not sure whether she ever got into the group or not. Thanks, Donna

This is really OT since it's about our library closure, but I have to admit that I'm looking forward to some extra stitching time. If someone wants to help, write or call your federal representatives and ask them to support the Rural Schools bills that the Oregon Sentators and Representatives are...

- Sad but true, my LNS is closed. I got the following message a few days ago and thought someone here might want to take advantage of the sale. It's mostly needlepoint and a few cross stitch items. I can vouch for their shipping policies in the past and I would still trust them now to do what...

This is the quote of the day from my Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Calendar.... A pun does not commonly justify a blow in return. But if a blow were given for such cause, and death ensued, the jury would be judges both of the facts and of the pun, and might, if the latter were of an aggravated...

A while ago I posted the press release for the upcoming Needlework Show in Rimini, Italy in May, 2007. The classes offered are now posted on their website. Here's the link for those who are interested: http://www.italiainvita.it/uk/forum2007/tab.shtml I'm off to buy a lottery ticket...

I finally figured out how to put the pictures in, now all I need to do is learn how to crop them and then save the cropped picture. I have a bunch more to do. Hope you can see anything with the size they are now. Clarice in AZ

Does anyone know if the MD/DC/VA Tangle is stilll active? I searched the archives for references, but didn't find any in the last couple of years (but given that I might have missed something). Thank you! Holly

As I mentioned in another post, I sorted through my stash today. I finished a project and put some fibers away. So I had to reorganize my fiber stash, which led to looking through my completed pieces. I hadn't realized how many small ornament-type pieces I had done. Besides the traditional tiny...

Well, ok. I've joined the ranks of picture posters and posted some of my latest works, including the 2006 County Fair winner. Mag

Hey guys this is a homemade craft of mine I spent a minute putting it together so please no hateful comments. I crafted this video together today in my head as a metal worker, when I got home I did some needle work and later turned some wood, after that I made a scrap book and after that I made a...

Dear friend's first grandbaby. She bought one of those ready-made bonnets, made from a linen handkerchief. I wish she had spoken with me first as I could have made one for her and incorporated the embroidery in the original design. This bonnet/handkerchief has a tiny cross bedazzled onto 2...
