In the process of packing for upcoming move, I've run across several extra copies of DMC free charts. I would like to share these with non-USA stitchers first, on a first-come-fist-serve basis; then USA stitchers if any remain. Send me an e-mail with your request, including your mailing address, by 5:00 PM USA Eastern Time, Wednesday, April 8, 1998. That night I'll sort them by location and time of arrival, and post them 4/9 or 4/10 (depends on how the packing is going). I've checked the postage requirements, and know that each chart will run me a bit in postage --- but all I'd like in return is a picture postcard of a local site or scene after you receive the chart(s). I'll send my address when I confirm you will be receiving your requested chart(s). This is meant as a "good" diversion for me from the drudgery and anxiety of packing, showing house, etc., etc. If I go crazy in the meantime, I'll try to let you know.:-) Jocelyn Kerr Here's the list: #9055 - Moonlight & Roses - Vase of roses in front of open window with curtain blowing; ribbons and locket in foreground - stitched on 14-ct navy blue Aida using rayon floss, flower thread, & embroidery floss (conversion info provided to substitute emb. floss for flower thread (have 5) #9048 - Bluebird Peaches - Peach crate label interpreted by Alice Okon - design with peaches, blossoms, and "bluebirds" (look more like swallows to me, but...) with landscape in background - stitched on 28-ct light linen fabric with emb. floss (have 2) #9049 - Napa Valley - 32 cent stamp interpreted by Alice Okon - Hummingbird and cluster of purple grapes in foreground, valley landscape in background - stitched on 28-ct light linen using emb. floss (have 5) #9054 - Freshwater Pearls View of beach from above - crab, starfish, sand dollar, shells, water - designed by Sandra Gilmore for pearl cotton on 18-mesh mono canvas, but may be created in CCS using evenweave and embroidery floss (have 7) #9056 - Cultured Pearls Teacup, Rose Bowl, Violin & Bow on lacy background designed by Sandra Gilmore as needlepoint using pearl cotton on 14-mesh mono canvas, but may be created in CCS on evenweave with emb. floss (have 3) #9046 - DMC Sampler 250th Anniversary Sampler designed by Cross 'N Patch Needlework Designs, Emie Bishop, stitched on light linen with emb. floss (have 2) #9045 - Spring Flowers Bouquet of flowers in blue vase - tulips, daffodils, etc. stitched on 18-ct white Aida with embroider floss (have 1) #9051 - Victorian Christmas Victorian Man & Woman strolling past row houses decorated for Christmas on snow-covered ground - stitched on 18-ct white Aida with emb. floss and metallics (have 1) #9047 - Pearls of Wisdom Sampler with alphabet, house, trees, border - designed by Cross 'N Patch Needlwork Designs, Emie Bishop, for pearl cotton (sizes 8 & 12) on 28-ct light linen.
