A felt lining works well for me - it keeps the emery powder inside and makes
the cushion more comfortable to use when pushing in the pins.

Your translation is probably right! A wreath is a ring of flowers, leaves,
ribbons built on a wire, wood or flower arranger's foam frame. They are used a
lot at Christmas to hang on doors, but also traditionally at funerals.
They can be a similar shape and size to a round lace pillow which is
The method of processing cards suggested by Brenda is the one Barbara
Fey uses when she is away from home, ie) in Prague. She wrote all of
the details down and then processed the payment when she got back. I
think she must have had several days worth of work after the Congress,
but it seemed
Pin and chip cards have a PIN (Personal Identification Number) uncoded
into an electronic chip which is integral to the card. All credit and
debit cards in UK will have then by next year and instead of signing
the receipt/counterfoil you are required to tap in the PIN. Won't

Hi Linda and other spiders,
Yes, felt worked for me too but I used it double thickness and found that no
emery powder escaped I have had this one now for about four years.

I have two of these pincushions...one that I made with a kit that the

Hello Dorte. A wreath box is simply a rigid storage container for an
artificial Christmas or seasonal wreath. I bought a beautiful artificial
wreath last Christmas. It is a grapevine wreath with pine cones and
artificial fruit wired onto it and it is a little fragile. I want to box it

I would like a box for a larger 'wreath' (a.k.a. lace pillow). I'm going
to check out Home Hardware (less crowded than Wallyworld g)
Thanks for the idea!

Usually these boxes are for Christmas wreaths. The kind we hang on the front
door in America. They are usually made of artificial materials and come out of
their storage year after year. Well at least until they are too tatty and we
replace them with a new one. :-)

Just a note FYI,
I measured my pillows, and then ran right out to Target to get
some wreath boxes, and found that even though the plastic
boxes were labeled 22in. X 22in. X 6 in, because of the way they
fasten the inside measurement is 18 inches across. The brand

Thanks one and all for the suggestions of felt - wool felt only. I hadn't
thought of that fabric. Can't wait to try it. Also the container idea. I
have used small containers as a base before but didn't connect to use it
for the emery powder.
And, Jacquie, yes, the emery I have is very fine. Finer
Hi again, just spotted the e-mail about costs. It costs 10p to put the card
through, it costs rental of the machine and it cost Barclays Merchant charges
who take a cut of every sale and there is no plans to reduce any of this.

This morning I caught the tale end of an item about this kind of fraud on BBC
breakfast news. They were talking to someone - from Microsoft, I think, -
and he was saying Microsofr has come up with free solutions. There is
something
on the topic on the BBC website - www.bbc.co.uk/breakfast.
Right - in that case maybe it's Electron that has to be swiped. There
is definitely one of the less popular cards which has can't be keyed

So sorry it took me a while to write. I had last week off work, and your
parcel arrived on the Wednesday, but I had to wait until I got back to
work to use the Internet.
Well, I can't pretend it was a surprise finding out who you were, since I
