Hi everyone .... I'm back home from Calif. now, and have begun to catch up on e-mail. Thanks to all who sent letters of condolence for both my brother's and my father's deaths (my brother Paul died on Feb. 1; Dad died on Feb. 16). What a month! I'm still sorting out other e-mail (there were more than 400 pieces in my box), so if I've not answered you privately yet, know that I will get to it eventually.

They can be tricky, but SO pretty when the stitching is done. Send me a private e-mail with the following information: To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: METALLICS, BLENDING FILAMENTSs & RAYON Please send each request in a SEPARATE e-mail and make sure the subject line is in ALL CAPS. It helps me to process this mail much more quickly. Also, only private mail will be honored; I do not respond to requests posted to the list.
