DMC 161? by
Monique Reed
I've got a little freebie chart that calls for DMC 161. Huh? The
solid color numbers don't go down that far. Is this something not in
the U.S.? Or is it a typo?
The chart is at:

Karen C - California

ArtVenture's "Fireman's Prayer" for each of the fallen NYFD. When he saw the

(Promptly got sidetracked with clothes for fireman's baby.....)
Well, Mom...

A Framing Question by
Russell Miller
Can anyone tell me if framing is done the same way for all needlepoint?
I am stitching a picture onto 32 ct. silk mesh and stitching with Eterna
silk threads. Can this be safely 'stretched' and pinned like the work I
do with D.M.C. cotton on Aida? I've worked so long on this one
particular piece...

OT, suitcase on flight by
Boohoo1971
Since we can no longer lock bags that are to go into cargo, I have been using a
twist tie to hook the two zippers on my bag together, thinking that the zipper
would not catch on something and come open. On the last flight, before I could
