Darwin, Beautiful work, actually I don't think of it as "work" (most of the time).
As you say it can be very relaxing until a thread inexplicably knots and it isn't
noticed for a while, then...it's ripping out time.
Jim, Interesting you should mention copyrights, a cross stitch site in Australia
has cut way back on her "lifetime free membership" charts because she has
found that some members are giving away or selling charts. Sound familiar?
Look up her site, Artecy. Another designer in Canada is about to call it quits
too, same reason. You might have noticed in the article that my wife would
not do counted cross stitch. She did anything else in needlework and very
well at that.
Actually, the best way for members to see the article would be to find a local
chapter of the Embroiderers' Guild on line and find a member in their own
neighborhood. I'll ask for permission from the guild anyway so the international
guys (and gals) can see too. (I'm the only male member in the local chapter, so
I run into that gender issue when at meetings too).
I have jpeg files of four of the pictures on a CD but I don't know how to get them
of the disk and uploaded to the papermodelers site. Those are mine, so there is
no copyright problem. I might mention I downloaded that Crab Nebula from the
Hubble site and assumed that was ok since my taxes paid for that. I may be
wrong, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Enjoy, Cheers and Thanks
Bob
