This is all needlepoint. I have two pretty good size painted canvases and the yarn for them. They are medieval ladies etc and are nice canvases and DMC tapestry yarn. Both were purchased in England about 6 years ago. I also have a kit of a medieval type rabbit, again good quality stuff. Last...

Armed with the floss list I needed for the design which features her cat my 8 yr old daughter dragged Dude into Micheals to buy me floss for Mother's Day. She got two of each of about 10 colors from the list. Her reasoning was that Mommy needs one now for JoJo, but the other one is...

The AFARR is now with Lollee (Linda) Roberts in Texas. She is working on the T. She'll hand it off personally to Jamie (also in Texas) for the U, but it may go to Anne of the Y before that because she is now also in Texas. So Joan, you may have to wait a bit. If you don't know what I'm talking...

I just cleaned out my stash, and I have a few leaflets that are duplicates or designs that I've decided I'll never do. Is there a place online where I can resell these leaflets other than Ebay?

I haven't been able to do much cross-stitch for a couple of years because one of my cats can't resist attacking either the floss or fabric or both! Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm probably not willing to confine him while I work... -- Sandy Cat pix in the Cats album at...
