Just a short report on that hardanger piece I tried, with a few additional questions. I didn't make it to a store in time to get 32-count linen, so I did it on the 22-count Hardanger that was included with the kit. I am happy to say that the white on white, finer scissors, and fabric with fewer...

I posted this on the yarn group, but haven't had a response. Is there anyone here who can help? Does anyone have any amigurumi patterns they are willing to share? I'm looking for some that come out the size a thumb, or smaller, if that's possible. I did see one some time ago, and it wasn't...

Has anyone found the needle I lost last night? It was a #26, threaded with 2 strands of DMC 728 Topaz. It seems to have run away from home. I hope no one steps on it and gets hurt. Lucille

A woman walks into a vet's waiting room, dragging a wet rabbit on a leash. "Sit, Fluffy," she says. Fluffy glares at her and then the soaking-wet rabbit jumps up on another customer's lap, getting water all over him. "I said sit, Fluffy!" the woman shouts. "Don't you want to be a good little...

I went to the post office today and sent the Angel on to Heather in New York. I wasn't able to do as much as I would have liked (my 76-year-old mother had a seizure and was just discharged from the hospital), but she sure was nice to have a part in. Diane, I don't have a scanner, so either I can...

Hi all, I am new here and I spent some time reading through people's messages. You all sound so nice here. Nothing like some of the other groups around here who get all nasty and name-calling. Anyway, I go by the nickname Duckie. I love doing cross stitch and I have done that for just a few months...

When you're using a 28 count evenweave fabric, do you always stitch over 2 threads? This may seem like a dumb question, but I'm really not sure. All of my stitching before has been with kits or whatever that tells just what size fabric to use and how many threads to stitch. It just seems like a...

I'm getting ready to start a large project that requires beading, which I want to do as I go along. At first I thought I would buy a set of Q-Snaps and try them out. My piece of fabric is 17"x24" - what size of Q-Snaps should I get? Can I get anything bigger than a 17"x17" which is the biggest I...

Well - I'm trying to clean out a little and I'm starting new bags to go to the library sale room. But there are things that are just staying put. So, in no particular order Monica Ferris - ok, I need the most recent ones in paperback still, but these stay put. Dave Duncan - fantasy with...

I need to get hold of a source that gives instruction for beading designs direct onto material as in tops or dresses - NOT handbags or anything portable like that. Any clues anyone please? Cheers Daisy

Hi everyone! You do not believe this. Dad left to Canarian Islands on November 9th. And when he came back on November 17th, you have no idea what he had with him. A camera for me! Oh yes. And not any kind of camera. The one I have....I can use it to take snapshots or something like that, aka...

So that`s where it`s coming from! We`re expecting a white weekend here this weekend. Pat P "Lucretia Borgia" wrote in message ... Everything has come to a standstill in Nova Scotia - biiig blizzard sweeping through.

Sorry to say, J&S Craft Stands are no longer being made. Their telephone and fax numbers have been assigned to other parties and mail sent to them is returned "No longer at this address". I have a J&S floor stand and would dearly love to have another (especially a folding model) to take along...

DD is having a pacemaker implanted as I type DS will be in surgery this time tomorrow. I'm too scared to do much but noodle on the computer. Maybe I should try housework...C

OK -- one of my most favouritest Christmas carols is "Mary's Boy Child". But -- and this seems to be a BIG "but" (not at all related to MY butt which, by the way, IS big) -- anywhoo the BUT part is that I like the calypso version of the song. I know that Boney M and The Brothers Four recorded...

I posted a question about starting Hardanger, and got wonderful answers. The two most suggested books are on my Christmas wish list. And thanks to Julie Norton, a designer of hardanger, I got a kit for a perfectally beautiful teaching doily with a book , fabric etc. Now, just one more question...

If it is really a problem with the email, get the software from www.spamassassin.org and see the spammers drop like flies. Does it work on AOL mail? I ask because AOL is not MAPI compliant software, the way that OUtlook and Lotus are, and I know that is a reason why the self-replicating part...
