I visit my daughter and would like to be able to do needlework when she is out or busy. I would like to do the needlework in my hands rather than a frame of some sort. There is not a good needleworking light in her house, and the best chair for needlework is not near an outlet. She has a three...

To add insult to injury, New Orleans had a couple of tornadoes go through last night!!! This is almost unheard of, especially at this season. The forecasters had warned us of thunderstorms, but last night I was more afraid than I was during Katrina, which I rode here, or Rita, which I rode just...

Well, I've finished my first quilt. It's for DD. You can see pics of it he http://community.webshots.com/user/ndjoan and in rctnp. Don't look *too* closely or you'll see my mistakes! LOL It was a practice piece for a different quilt I want to make in darker teal, cream & gold, with daisies &...

Dear friends, hello! Just wanted to let you know we have posted several free projects and a new free embroidery design. Since it's almost the end of November, the freebie is Christmas related - Santa holding Christmas list: http://www.abc-cross-stitch-patterns.com/Free_Patterns/ The new projects...

It's half way through the year, and time to take stock before Xmas throws us all into a dither. How many projects have you completed and what is your favorite project so far, finished or unfinished? So far, all I've finished is a crazy quilt chicken pincushion, and my favorite project is Elian...

I know that DMC has stopped selling the Coton a Broder thread to U.S. distributors, and I'm on the prowl for an alternative source -- in the U.K., NZ, Australia, or wheverever else I could do business. (I can only pay with credit cards and I know that can be limiting.) I am interested in a range...

A Geeez whiz moment......caught a segment on HG-TV Tuesday night, believe the program is titled Decorating Cents. Anyway.....the interior designer was using a piece of needlework that was once a lovely Elsa Williams needlework design sold in The Stitchery catalog during the late 70's or early 80's...

Now that we are once again happily settled into our home (albeit, lots of boxes are still awaiting my attention) I'm SO ready for a good day of S.E.X.! I literally did not pay a bit of attention to the results of the January show, nor have I been near a shop since before the fire. I like samplers...

After having all of my cross stitch experience (little as it is) be with Aida cloth, yesterday I started my first piece on linen. And I just have to say. Yuck. Ick. This is soooo sloooooooooooow. :P Humor me. Tell me I'll get faster as I get used to it. Tracey

All, What's a father to do when his daughter works sooooo hard to create a brand new knitting blog...and nobody has come to visit it yet? Of course it's wonderful and you all should go check it out. She is a recent college grad with a math major who would "like to publish a math paper on the...

Has anyone tried any charts from the Beautiful Threads designers? From what I can see of the pictures from different web sites, the charts are very elaborate and look almost as good as photographs. Of course, we all know what you see online is not necessarily what you get. If anyone here has...

After organizing (more or less) my magazines and patterns, I am now moving on to how to store fibers, frills and fabrics. I plan on using ArtBin's plastic storage containers for fibers (saw it on Shay Pendray's show and checked with the company and it is OK for fibers), along with the plastic...

OK - I'm a'going to embarrass myself. I have this nasty habit of completing the stitching, even attaching the charms but of not making the piece into a (pillow, scissor fob, what ever). So, my resolution this year to to actually complete projects. So I have a little piece (with a ladybug) and...

Can anyone recommend a good light and bulb that will make stitching in the evenings easier. I used to use an anglepoise light with a 'blue' daylight bulb. I did find though that the bulb caused a yellowy shadow on my material. In the daytime, my bedroom is the best place to stitch as it has a...
