I'm working on a birth sampler for my expected little one (in November) and my rather sweet DH accidentally threw out my original pattern!! It was part of a Bucilla kit but I had purchased it on Ebay because I was buying lots of moon and star stuff for the nursery and came across this as well. ...

Can anyone explain to me why, whenever DH has been on the computer I can`t open up the threads? I have to reboot to get it to behave normally! It NEVER happens to me, and I just can`t think what he does to cause it, It`s darned annoying though. Pat P.
