Interesting that you went to enrol in Patchwork and Quilting G & G and ended up doing embroidery. I did exactly the same at South Notts. Unfortunately owing to my late husband's illness I couldn't complete it and now shifts stop me from picking it up again. Maybe one day ...Maggihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04479533794674357334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358911480916068024.post-27518987283998486502008-12-14T14:56:00.000+00:002008-12-14T14:56:00.000+00:00Hi Sue,I also have some old books on embroidery, a...Hi Sue,<BR/>I also have some old books on embroidery, and like you I enjoy browsing through them. I reckon the instructions they give are better than what is in a lot of the new ones around these days!<BR/>I hadn't visited Stitchin Fingers for a week or so, and only just saw your comment on the TAST forum about your broken arm. First thing I thought of was "Uh oh, not a bike accident?" I'm glad it wasn't, but sorry to hear you have a broken limb whatever the cause! <BR/>All the best for Christmas!!Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.com
