Well, after having been dry cleaned, my needlepoint tea cosy hung in the closet for two months and I am finally getting around to finishing. I have sewn all together, and before inserting the lining, am sewing on a corded edge over the seam between the fabric backing and the needlepoint front. I...

I have a friend who uses Old embroidery as `ready made Jewelry` to combine it into /under and over her work ,,, she cuts parts as she `feels` them and than embroiders more , adds more ,, it is a fantastic work ,,, 1001 little dreams explode in every part of her lavishly embroidered works . mirjam

I am going to love working with these once again. The uses I have had for silks previously were tent stitch but using them so freeling in crewel work is going to be fun fun fun. They were rather surprising. 60 of them fit into a pretty tiny bag.

I have a different kind of April Fool's story. I spoke to DD at college in FL on the 2nd, and she told me that there was excitement on campus the previous day, but she didn't dare call home to tell about it because nobody would have believed her, it being April Fool's Day. Seems that a student was...

Hey y'all! I'm currently working on ptutting together some 14 ct. plastic canvas mini kits, and I need your help. My series is of each of the 50 states with the state flower superimposed on each state, which can then be finished off as either a Christmas ornament or as a fridge magnet. What I...

I remember a post a while ago regarding interest in pregridded fabric for stitching on. While looking at Solaria's website earlier, I followed a link to a Canadian shop that sells this fabric! It's 22 ct. The link is: http://www.balkan-gallery.com/ There is more info at the site. Although I...

Apparently this is one of a series of festivals around the area. If you missed this one, check the website for another one near you. www.craftandsewingfestival.com I blew my budget in the first 10 minutes. Two words: hologram thread. :) The place where I bought it was using it in a sewing...

When Jane was visiting her Dad in hospital this evening, she spotted a young man opposite cross stitching Tutankamun. He was using a double ended needle - but it was the same size as a NORMAL one! Of course she didn`t think to ask where he had got it, so I`m just hoping that he`s still...

Greetings to all I have been doing needlepoint for about 30 years; counted cross stitch for about three months. I would like to create a project for a colleague who is leaving in August. My problem is that I would like to use two logos from our non-profit agency but do not know how to create...

Hi Guys, I am TOTALLY bummed! I finished the birth sampler for DD early last autumn and put it away for safe keeping. I was getting into the heavy holiday work and knew I wouldn't have time to do the finishing until the spring. Well, spring is here and now I can't find the *#$*#$^& sampler! I...

Has anybody else stitched Mirabilia's Cinderella and noticed a lot of mistakes? I am surprised, because usually Nora's charts don't contain many, and this has a bunch. Some she apparently caught on the way to the printer, because the legend shows three different symbols for DMC 413. But there...

I used to have a canvas bookbag that I loved, but it got damaged beyond repair so I'm going to make one myself. I've found a few places that sell plain canvas bags, and with my BIL's help I'm going to xs a scene I have in mind on fabric and then stitch it to the bag. BIL is a great artist, so...

Does anyone else have a problem with the John James petits breaking often? A friend has gone through several packages like they are water. One needle won't last long enough to stitch one 5X7 kit because the eye breaks off. Meanwhile, my Susan Bates needles last through several projects. I even...
