Hello All,
all those remarks you mentioned you could hear in Germany too. It depends on
what place and in what time of the year one does demonstrating. Beside these
remarks I often heard positive ones but can't say for sure which more which
less.

I am a puzzle solver and find that BL is a puzzle to solve at times. If it

Hiya all,
I like to do all kinds of things. I am not a couch potatoe. I more exercise
than changing a channel on the TV Clicker. More of my body gets exercise than
my
eye balls just glancing at a TV screen.
My life is short...and I want to do and make and learn as much as I can. I

The subject is about stitches done with a needle with an eye.
Absent a stitch diagram, a embroidery teacher will often ask a leftie to
sit *opposite* a rightie, to replicate the stitching rather than spend an
inordinate amount of classroom time teaching left-handed techniques.

I have often used this analogy when an observer tells me they could

Hi all-
Years ago, after spending an entire morning retro-lacing a wide Flanders piece
only to discover that I hadn't made a mistake in the first place, I was
surprised to realize that I wasn't upset about all of the wasted time. I
learned more about how to look at the pattern. It occurred to

Having read the other positive comments, Mark... I suggest you scout
around for a t-shirt printer, and put yourself into the business...

Hi
I managed to get some Tipp-ex (correction fluid) on my trousers yesterday and
am wondering whether it is possible to get it off without ruining my (almost
new) trousers. I don't know what the correction fluid is made of, but
wondered if nail varnish remover might help? Has anybody had this

couple of different pieces of fabric and then
Rinse immediately, first of all. Not just assume the damage is done and let
it dry. If that doesn't work, try rubbing alcohol - the 91% stuff and not
the 50% stuff.

Tipp-ex used to be sold in 2 varieties - spirit based and water based.Only
the water based stuff could be sold to under 18s because it contained a
solvent. You need to find out which it is. If they still sell thinners, that
should dissolve the spirit one; water should dissolve the water based
