Hi spiders
Like Sue, those of us who live in Suffolk are also greatly spoiled for
access to lace suppliers, Suffolk Lacemakers organise 5 lace days each year
and we have easy access to those held in the neighbouring counties of Essex,
Cambridge and Norfolk. In fact you can have a hard job
Hi, I'm slowly progressing with my longest running UFO - pattern no 8 from

Gentle Spiders,
In this week's mail I received a needlecraft catalogue, and on the cover is
announcing the DMC Linen Floss collection. In the photo, the skeins look
like regular floss (it isn't wound on a spool). Has anyone worked with
this new DMC linen thread? I suppose it's intended for
crammed with useful dress, craft and curtain fabrics. But no

We were also battling to find calico until we went to the Indian shops
(imported fabrics) They have a fabric that we call calico but they call by
another name. Hope

You may or may not have noticed that lace suppliers supply linen thread in
varying shades of white. I was told by one supplier that eventually
(through age and washing) it will all end up the same colourOmo white.
I love linen and the little bit of research I have done has shown that he is
Newbies: You might like to print out these instructions and keep them for
future reference.
Never mind newbies, I've printed them out and put them in the syllabus so that
when I finish the lace I can refer to them. Most of the points don't apply but

I saw these threads mentioned in a stitching magazine this week, it was
saying that they are used in a new range of cross stitch kits.
I am looking forward immensely to being able to try them for stitching.

Hi,
I just have to take a few minutes away from work (any excuse!) to tell you
about Air Canada's Enroute magazine. I was flying on Thursday night (for
a brief weekend at home) and decided to look at the (February) in-flight

Although I seldom disagree with Tamara, the relatively new International

told, they are a tad longer (no problem), have a double head, and no
fiddley turnings to get in the way. I'm sure if these had been around when

Yes - I realise the difficulties of you in America and Australia, New
