thistletoes
Liz Hampton writes in care of me: "If you go to the following link and
go down to the bottom of the page, you'll see two of the "Sisters
Samplers" that I made several years ago
for my sisters and myself. There are two more, but one is at sea en
route between England and the U.S. and the other is...

I'm really excited! by
carol
Hi,
Have you ever stitched any of my kits, charts, freebies or the sampler
we are working on in my newsletter?
If so, could I ask a favour?
I have added a page:

Another craft shop bites the dust! by
Pat P
Our only remaining needlework/craft shop has just closed down. IMO it had
just spread itself too far - with every craft you could imagine - but I feel
that they all suffered as a consequence.
If you`re back home and reading this, Rosemary - I took you in there for a
look round.

Two Visits by
Cheryl Isaak
I am a bit remiss in my posting about recent visits
First - last Friday, Elizabeth (aka Dr. Brat) stopped on her way home from
showing Cash - and showed off his new blue ribbon (how did he do on
Saturday?) We had lunch and talked a lot. I showed her some new stash and
walked in the garden. I think...

Need US Source for Dinky Dyes by
Tia Mary
Hi Guys,
When I was at CATS last year, I bought several different colors of
Dinky Dyes silk floss. I have started one of the projects I bought the
fiber for and am pretty sure I will need more than the one skein I
purchased.
My "not so" LNS doesn't carry Dinky Dyes nor does Thread...

what can be done? by
thistletoes
I almost hate to say the name out loud. Those people? who have been
posting political messages and clogging not only our nice little
stitchery group, but our personal inboxes for those of us who get the
digest email. Any thoughts?

OT - I'm sure you'll all appreciate this by
Bruce
A woman was sitting at a bar enjoying an after work drink with her
girlfriends when an exceptionally tall, handsome, extremely sexy
middle-aged man entered. He was so striking that the woman could not
take her eyes off him. The young-at-heart man noticed her overly
attentive stare and walked...

Project You're Excited to Start but Haven't Started Yet by
Donna
The fall issue of Sampler and Antique Needlework Quarterly has Martina
Dey's Tsunami Relief sampler in it. Instead of using Vicky Clayton's
silks, I kitted up with Crescent Colours. I still need to pick fabric,
but this project is fairly shouting at me to start now.

Tips for Crewelwork by
Donna
Having just picked up crewel embroidery again after nearly thirty
years, I'm in need of any and all tips and tricks.
Do you use knots? If not, how are you starting and ending threads?
Do you outline a solid area to be stitched with buttonhole or
something else? or just stitch to the edges with...

New books by
bungadora
Well, after nearly a year of waiting I finally received iRoyal
School of Needlework Embroidery Techniques/i - I bought it on sale
and it got backordered. Nice looking book, but in order to really
assess how good it is I'll have to sit down and actually work my way
through it. That could be a...

acronyms by
thistletoes
Here is a question. For those of us who are fairly new, and not
familiar with all the acronyms, please un-encrypt "LNS". I think it
might be local needlework shop, but that is just a wild guess. Some
acronyms used in this group appear on those websites that list
hundreds of chat acronyms and...
