Spiders,
I happened to be in Springfield, Illinois yesterday
for work and talked my boss into an hour's visit to
the brand new Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and
Museum. (We spent an hour in the museum and an hour
in the gift shop!) An hour isn't nearly enough, but
we zipped through a

only other dress with lace was from the 1870s or 1880s
and was definitely machine lace. Does anyone know
when chemical lace started because that's what it

emerge as a formidable power.

Hi All,
It seems we all have fond (or embarrassing!) memories of the car stickers -
maybe we ought to make enquiries, and see where we could get some more
made - I'm sure they'd sell well.

I don't own a car but I'd love to have this 'motto', and a

Hi,
I am new to this network; my question is about finding a good second
hand pillow to do long yardages on! I guess it is a roller type?
I have never done e-bay. Does anyone have a practical solution for a
neophyte on line shopper.

Hi Joanna and welcome to the group.
If you want to make lengths then yes you are right you need either a roller

Block pillows are quite easy to make with pieces of styrofoam/ethafoam.

Long yardages don't have to be done on a roller, Joanna, they can be made on

cut polystyrene insulation board I buy from an insulation supplier

I just finished the leaf sampler bookmark from Barbara Underwood's 20
Lessons book. I was demo-ing at a fiber arts festival in Hammondsport, New
York, a couple weekends ago, and took that one as an easy pattern that I
could do while still talking to people.
It was quite interesting; as with the
