The rant about the MIL from he** started me down memory lane because mine was a piece of work too. For quite some time, we supplemented her small income and she used some of the money to buy us cheap clothes and junk for which we were supposed to be eternally grateful. She insisted on bi-weekly...

In 1982 Paternayan changed their Persian yarn color numbering system. In 2006 on this site there was a discussion thread about the availability of a conversion chart of the old to new color numbers. Elderberry22 kindly started making a list of the old to new numbers, but the posting stopped...

Hi, I'm new to this forum so please redirect me if I'm asking the wrong question in the wrong place! I've only just started embroidery and I'm really hooked on blackwork. I discovered Lesley Barrett's book and tree project in Stitch Magazine (UK) and i've been searching for similar contemporary...

Hi ladies and gents! Have not been here for a while. Must ask anyway...you may know. I have...this cushion thing to stitch. It is Aida, and pre-printed. What's the worry then, you ask. Well, I let you know. I do not know...the gauge, as we'd say it in RCTY. And that brings me another worry. What...

I have a Visual Mate LM747 and *love it*!! This one: http://store.knitting-warehouse.com/071919.html But it's about 10 years old, and a few years ago, it wouldn't turn on, my DH had to replace the switch. It worked for a while, but now it's starting to not go on when I flip the switch, it takes...

Does anyone remember the yarn on burlap samplers we did in elementary school? As I recall it had cross stitches, chain stitch, back stitches. Also, I think it included a row of the alphabet, row of numbers and our names. My 6 year old daughter is expressing an interest in sewing and I was thinking...

Has anyone worked on Heaven & Earth Designs cross stitch? If so, do you have any tips? Thanks! Kim

I believe I read in the Nordic Needle newsletter some time ago that using half stitches instead of full cross stitches will make a project go faster. No kidding. But, to get the same coverage -- would you use 3 strands of floss for the half stitches if you would have used 2 for the full stitches?...

OK...I bought the stuff but I'm really worried. I've never used a thread conditioner before and I'm working on the sampler I've metioned in previous posts. It's done in Waterlilies and Splendor along with some #8 Perle Cotton....are you all "sure" that it's OK to use this stuff...I don't want to...

Hi Guys, There is a thread going on over at the AOL needlework board about backstitching. The question about what the "rule" is came up so I thought I would ask here as I know we have a number of people who are certified to do judging. When a piece is entered in competition is it the rule that...

HI! I am frantic! I have Susan Portra's Odyssey series: Odyssey,Adventure and her latest Infinity. But there is "Journey" listed. I have never seen it,no one can find it.
