OT - Marmite by
Sharon
A very nice lady I know who lives in N.S. sent me a lovely package
today. Marmite!!! Holy crap, it has got to be the most foul tasting,
gut wrenching, disgusting thing I ever tasted. I'd rather lick an old
boot. No wonder you guys came to America - to get some decent food.
Barf I think the...

My Finished Sampler by
Lucille[_3_]
I added a picture in my RCTNP album of the little sampler I made for my
sister and brother-in-law's 50th Anniversary. It was supposed to be an
apple tree, but since they live in Arizona, I figured oranges were more
appropriate.

Seville oranges by
MargW
Hey Jim:
I noticed that my Metro (formerly Dominion) has Seville oranges. Just
in time for your annual marmalade making.
Me, I'm sticking with MaMade G Solves all the problems of getting the
rinds cuts thinly enough.

Vegan - So DMC Instead of Wool by
Rachel Grier
Hello Everyone
I became vegan a while ago and since one of the practices of veganism is to
forego wool I have to give up my beloved Appletons (sob).
What I would like to know is how feasible it is to use DMC instead of wool
on larger gauge canvas. I know I will need lots more cotton but if I...

Are introductions in order? by

I joined the group in October and have been posting since I discovered
this great group. I see some of you post daily and others come in when
they can. I thought it might be nice for those of us who are newer to
the group to get to know the rest of you. I saw another newbie on the
threads the...

I'm now at liberty to dish! by
Bonnie
I've never met Ginger personally but have shopped there when in Austin.
When I lived in Pampa we did not have an LNS. We have a fairly good LNS
here in San Angelo so I really don't have to rely on her now.
Sorry for your problems with her!

not OT, question for those who are multi-crafters by
[email protected]
by multi-crafters, I mean that needlework isn't the only craft you
love doing and you are sometimes inundated by everything.
I was heavily into cross-stitch for a long time (stamped) when I was
younger, then got off the habit and back into sewing (parents both
taught me how to sew when I was in...

Attention, Dianne! by
Susan Hartman/Dirty Linen
I immediately thought of you when I saw this article in the Hopkins
alumni magazine:
http://www.jhu.edu/~jhumag/0903web/bigques.html
It's about manners and civility, and he states the root casuses of our
modern-day lack of civility very succinctly, I think. In fact, I tried
to think if there were...

announcing ebay listings? Wooden Hoops by
Caryn
One thing leads to another - I am thinking back to all the you know
what surrounding angels - all quasi "acceptable" but bloody boring to
many. Once advertising is in it quickly takes over.
I am with you on this one!
I did run an awl through my hand but didn't hit anything major so...

Organization and Storage by
anne
I'm one of those people who embody the 'out of sight, out of mind'
adage/cliche. IOW, if something isn't visible, I don't remember I've got it.
How do you store your patterns, kits, charts, magazines, books?
Are they organized by technique or subject or ... ?
What about your fabric? By color,...

All the presents which are done, are wrapped. Some boxes are already

And it's not off-topic 'cause if I go to the Scarlet Thread while
wearing my I Voted sticker I get a discount on stashing.
So I'm off for a quick run to my now favorite stitching store. DH just
called and along the way I'm instructed to see if I can find where a
new co-worker is moving in today. I...

I have been teaching myself this type of embroider for nearly 3 years
