Greetings from the past...
Hi all,
not long ago a member of this group sent me an email to my private mailbox - and all of a sudden there were quite some memories coming to my mind. The more , as I am sorting my stash of things and magazines and was kind of "back in the past" anyway by looking on articles and mags of 1995 and so on.... I was kind of indulging in fond memories of the friendly people I met here, of those who got me "started" with designing and my own business. And now I wonder : WHO is still here from "olden times" ? I would be glad to "see" you and maybe chat a bit to and fro. I have spent quite some hours now looking through old posts from "then" - and I can tell you that is a pretty strange feeling to read one's own posts, comments and stuff which is yeeeeeaaarrssss old now. Lot has changed for me in my life ... and in yours for sure too ! For now -kind regards from an "old" poster here ( hihi - got 50 this year, imagine that ! and still kicking...)

Martina Weber Chatelaine Designs Duisburg- Germany G'day Martina! Fancy seeing you here after all these years! I hope life's been good to you during all that time? I can see you're still designing because I visit your website from time to time. Your designs just keep getting better! I'd love to know is how Manuela is - she must be nearly finished school by now? My Ellie (who was a toddler Back Then) is in her second year of high school and nearly as tall as me! I know how you feel about turning 50. Isn't it amazing how age sneaks up on you and suddenly you find you're not as young as you feel? ROTFL! Congratulations on joining us over-50s: it's not such a bad place to be. Anyway, welcome back. Looking forward to seeing more of you! ;-D -- Trish {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia |

(waving.... !!!) - well , I just need a place to "go" for some chat sometimes.. and what else would I chat about besides needlework stuff, threads, beads, sparklies....grin I am just sitting here, sleepless in Duisburg to say so - and kitting up some older designs with updated threads ( as the "old" stuff is not longer available, much to my dismay !) Have some gazillions of skeins of various companies on my desk here, try to keep the cat away and decide on what goes for which color. Always mostly a fun project ! kind regards, Martina Weber - Chatelaine Designs Duisburg/Germany |

I have your Egyptian Garden kitted up and ready to go (bought everything a while back). *One difference is - I have been playing with the idea of doing it on a light goldish-tan silk and using 16-count waste canvas (which will allow 32-count over one). *I just have to finish one other project first and figure out what type of frame to use with it. Of course at the rate I stitch, it will take me years to finish it! LOL..... Fran - did you ever stitch a large project on silk using waste canvas? I would kind of fear, that such a symmetrical design will be somewhat out of lines later, once the canvas is removed. My experiences with wc are very limited to some Tshirts and tricotage stuff I embroidered once - but I could imagine it being utterly difficult...for straight lines and graphic elements. kind regards, Martina Weber- Chatelaine Designs Duisburg/Germany |
