sew girls by
Donna
Hmm. Following their own path to Twitter, I see them as being located
in my area, Washington D.C.
Is it possible this is someone I know??? I certainly hope not.
I did send them a note asking them to stop their copyright
violations.

What are you stitching/knitting by
Cheryl Isaak
I've semi-abandoned my UFO/WIP - an old Serendipity piece. Too pink
right now.
I've got two "purse" projects going while I search out some Kreinik VFB
that I need for the next leg of a round robin I'm working on. What ever
other metallic that will work

For the needlepointers by
NDJoan[_3_]
When I clicked on Google's doodle this morning, an ad came up for a
needlepoint shop. Naturally, I had to check it out. Most of the
prices seem ok but I ran across this one. Holy Cow!
