Any thoughts on taming this stuff? I am most likely going to frog what I've done and just use the called for floss and add some blending filament to it. Cheryl

At yesterday's EGA SIG meeting, someone was working on a blackwork design for her Master Counted Thread Stitching certification which was absolutely gorgeous!!! The technique intrigues me because it's so 'clean' as opposed to my usual freestyle whatever works projects. If y'all could point me to...

I was looking around for Barbara Grainger's book - still haven't found it - and found this place: Books for You http://www.magma.ca/~pvandie/aboutus.htm No affiliation. It looks like a good site, although the site search engine sucks. It doesn't have one. Has anyone here dealt with them? I...

( I started this before the ice storm hit and took the power with it!) First - what ever rule we make for him, has to apply to her. So, since we are especially worried about her dating, it makes sense to make the age as late as possible. Is no dating in college a bit over the top? yes, but given...
