Brief intro and searching for The Bird Perch X-stitch pattern by
Danny Breidenbach
Hi all,
I used to frequent the rec.arts.textiles.needlework USENET group in the bad old days of the late 90s. Learned a lot. Improved my skills a lot. Lived in Northern Virginia at the time. Now I'm in Kansas. I'm one of those relatively rare male stitchers. I'm not too proud to stitch on an...

Will I get to stitch today??? by
Cheryl Isaak
Yesterday was all kinds of madness and I haven't had a chance to pick up a
needle since Sunday. But the house work needs doing and the garden is
calling too.....
But we are 80% ready for back to school and the rink. I just need to figure
out DD's birthday plans and I can relax (sort of). I do...

Make Tons Of Money Fast!
I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are, and came across
an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of
dollars within weeks with an initial investment of $6.00! I thought,"
Scam", but I was curious, so I kept reading. It said : send $1.00...

Looking for alpaca yarn by
Joan Erickson
Hi all,
I know several of you are knitters/crocheters, so thought I'd try here.
Several years ago I purchased some yarn. I finally found a pattern to
use with it and have found I need more than what I got. I contacted the
company and they replied they discontinued this line of yarn several...

Karen's Thoughts by
Karen C - California
While others have been getting worked up over RCTN, Karen has been stitching.
On ArtVentures' "Fireman's Prayer", which is a hand-drawn chart, right under
the shield there are two blue stitches. They don't look right. I think they
should be red. One symbol is a checkmark and the other is a ^...

***Very OT*** CHRISTMAS ***OT*** by
[email protected]
Just out of curiosity -- I really wondered what everyone thinks about
all the "Happy Holiday" songs and etc? I saw some schoolchildren on tv
the other night singing what SHOULD have been "We wish you a Merry
Christmas" ... but now it's all "We wish you Happy Holidays". And then
Saturday Night Live...

Paternayan yarn numbers by
elderberry22
Hi, I am thinking about making the pattern "Tinkle, a Cat" from the
book by Brande Ormond, _American Primitives in Needlepoint_. But when
I look at the Paternayan yarn numbers, they are so different! This
calls for quite a lot of Dark Red #201, but when I look at color
charts, 201 is quite a...

Home again. by
Olwyn Mary
Turns out I have severe bronchitis, not just a cold. However, as the
hospital is so crowded, and I have had all the ultrasounds, x-rays,
round the clock breathing treatments etc., plus my new nebulizer arrived
today, plus I have a retired husband to help out, the doctor released me
with a handful...

What we're stitching now... by
Jere Williams
I thought perhaps it might be interesting to know what we are all stitching
right now -- I'd suspect it's a wide cross-section.
I love interesting quotes, and I'm doing one now that says: I pray that
risen from the dead, I may in Glory stand. A Crown perhaps upon my head,
but a needle in my...

Mirjam - how are you? by
Walker Family[_2_]
I imagine the stress level is pretty high just now and wondered how
you were coping. During a time of holy days for many religions, it
seems especially sad that there's such discord in the world. Keep us
aware of your information about things in Israel, because it would be
interesting for those...

30 year old crewel - help to clean by
Chance2
I just found some crewel work that I did when I was a young girl. It
has been at my mother's house, and she has gas heat. The gas has
stained the material. Would I be able to wash this or should it go
to the dry cleaners? Thanks

Yoohoo, Mommies! by
Karen C in California
What are Barbie clothes going for these days?
We're trying to put a reasonable price on some for a craft fair. Don't
want to say $10 for a dress if they can buy something similar at ToysRUs
for $3, but don't want to say $3 if ToysRUs is selling them for $15.

home needed for a "Bill's Frame" frame by
kiera kristinsdottir
I have a frame that I think is a needlepoint frame. It's stamped
"Bill's Frames" and from the archives of this list I deduce that it's
from Bill Gordon's Woodcraft, a now-defunct business once in
Healdsburg, California.
I'm a rug hooker, and don't really need this frame. Is there someone
