This is a long-shot -- but would anyone on this list know where I might obtain the June 1983 issue of Counted Thread Magazine? Many thanks

Have a good day wherever you are, with, I hope, at least of few of the things that will make you happy. I will be slogging through the snow to visit DD's cat, as DD is away, and so get to watch football at her place, since I don't have the channel, and, I hope, see the Saskatchewan Roughriders...

Happy thinking day to all Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Girl Scouts all over the world. Today we celebrate the joint birthday of Lord and Lady Baden-Powell the fou nders of the scout and guide movement. I'm a Brownie Guider at Stanmore Synagogue in N.W. London England and tomorrow we will have a...

Okay, All, can Nun's Stitch be done on the diagonal? I am doing a Xmas ornament and can do the vertical and horizontal. However, I would like to do a peaked top, with two rows of Nun's Stitch meeting at the top. The sides will be cut and the bottom will be fringed. Can the top be a peak and...

Okay gang - I'm pulsing this oh so unopinionated group - seriously, as I believe many of you have better or more experience than me, etc, blah, blah. Warning - this is long 'cause I feel compelled to give some background. So, our best friends have 4 kids, who are essentially like ours. ...

Hello ladies (and gents!) Many many many moons ago, my mother bought me a wonderful counted cross leaflet. A few years ago I lost it in a fire in my apartment building, along with 20 years or so of carefully hoarded...er, gathered...supplies and patterns. Unfortunately, I have not been able to...

Hi all, It looks like some of us locals are finally converged on a date to have an outing to Woodlawn. Donna, Ericka, maybe Sue W (depending on her jury duty) and I will be going to the Needlework Exhibition on Tuesday, 3/20. Joiners welcome - of course. There are directions to Woodlawn on...

I've had some health issues, so frequent a few other forums now and again. What I am noticing is how awful so many of the posts are. It is really scarey. So many misspelled words. Lack of punctuation. No paragraphs, making it hard to keep track of different thoughts . . . forcing you to reread...

I will be mailing a package to the UK in the future. I've been researching and will probably be able to send it in a Global Priority Mail Envelope. My question is on the customs declaration. I don't want the recipient to have to pay duty if it can be helped. It is a gift, but I'm assuming I...

Hi All, Back home from my stay at the cabin in Lizard Land. Did some sewing and some stitching and a wee bit of knitting. Made another silk kimono jacket for my DNiece in TX and have been working on a NP project to help Janet (my stitchin' buddy). Nothing earth shattering happened while I...

I'm in the process of making up my Christmas list, and couldn't think of any new books out this year I don't already have on order. Mind you, I don't know why I bother because no one ever gets me what I want anyway. Going through the online listing is downright depressing, since so many needlework...

My only brother died yesterday. He was 55. I will be leaving in the next few days to go to where he lived. Please remember me in your prayers. This may mean that Geobear arrives when I am away, which will mean a delay. I may just send him on directly to the next person, without doing photos,...

OK, I'm just about done. Who's next and what's the addy?

Since I was whining about no one posting, I suppose I could at least get something started! lol As I posted before, I started on Keslyn Designs' "My day complete" and was having trouble with it. I'm happy to report that it's been going much better as of late, until I ran out of floss. That's...

Anyone own these and can review if they indeed stay tamborine tight as they say?
