I've always stitched on Aida. I have finally taken the plunge and stitched a project on evenweave. I stitched the Good Huswife's "Merry Christmas" in DMC's varigated read (#157 I think!)on 28 ct antique white Jobelan. And I'm stitching the Good Huswife's "Live Simply" in a Needle Necessitie...

Hi Everyone! I'm sorry to be so far behind the times. However, as I explained earlier, I have been off line for several month now. The last I heard Trish's Alphabet was nearing the end of it's travels. Has it been completed and returned to her? Candy

I adore over-dyed and hand dyed floss so I was thrilled to find a new batch. I bought the whole range of Seaside Treasures Floss and they are lovely plus they were good people to do business with. The posting to the UK was very quick and I can't wait to start using them. I already have almost all...

My mom has found a stocking kit that my grandmother started in the 1980s. The kit was put out by Sunset Designs and is titled "Following the Star." Our problem is that the floss that came in the kit is missing and there are no DMC or other numbers to help buy replacement floss. The colors are...

Again, the subject says it all. Just in: The jury has returned a recommendation of death for John Allen Muhammad. Now it is up to the judge to decide the punishment. Anne (in Ellicott City, MD)

I have seen in a store a cotton fabric purse that closed using a magnet. It wasn't the nice "magnetic clasp" this was just a square of magnet (kind of like the kind you can cut up for craft work) between the layers but it was strong. This was used in a reversible purse and I can't find this kind of...

I was just looking at the Barnes and Noble website, and in their "coming soon" dept. they list upcoming books, with a photo of the cover of ONE of the books on the list for that week.
