at least one in the living room. ...

Missing chart by
Nancy Poehlmann
Dear RCTN folks,
I unearthed a UFO that I'd dearly like to finish, but I cannot unearth
the chart. Any help would be very much appreciated. Dating from
probably the early 80's, the chart is very art nouveau, with a
auburn-haired girl in a yellow dress holding a daffodil. The border
is green...

Sandy Orton's Exquisite Lily Sampler by
Pat Porter
I have done her Garden of Friendship, and loved doing it. It still needs
framing as John isn`t too enthusiastic - he thinks it`s a bit "Wishy-washy"!
I think it`s absolutely beautiful, and just the thing for the pale green

EVERTITE BARS: PRODUCT REVIEW
Needlepoint canvas sags as you work it, it always has and it always
will. People who work on frames know the struggles we always had
with saggy, baggy canvases. If you use scroll frames, you tighten

should do everything in your power to do something about this, Canadians
