		<description><![CDATA[Well, when I say &#8220;a new release&#8221; I am being a little bit premature. The stitching has been done, the stitching has been finished in a useful and (I hope) attractive way, everything has been photographed &#8211; now I just need to write the chart pack, which includes drawing diagrams for turning inside and outside [...]]]></description>

The three local Baptist churches are sending a team to India this summer to help with a school and various other things, and so a lot of fundraising is going on &#8211; today was a sponsored bike ride or walk around [...]]]></description>

Unfortunately work doesn&#8217;t stop just so I can play with new threads, so it had to wait until the evening. I&#8217;d sent Margaret [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One way of finishing pieces of stitching, whether they become bookmarks or table mats or bell pulls or patches, is to give them a decorative and sturdy border (&#8220;hem&#8221; would probably be a better word, but &#8220;Hem control&#8221; wouldn&#8217;t have been such a good title ). The emphasis is on &#8220;sturdy&#8221; &#8211; it&#8217;s easy enough [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last month Serinde commented on my Stitching in the Netherlands post saying she&#8217;d like to stitch some Mabel designs in traditional white on white. Serinde is at least partly responsible for the existence of Mabel&#8217;s Fancies as she greatly encouraged me when I started doing Hardanger, so I take note of what she says! And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since I bought sticky-back foam from them for our church&#8217;s Christmas Craft Event last year, Yellow Moon have been sending me their catalogue. Nothing stitchy, really, but lots of felt and foam and paper and things like that. It turned out to be really useful for the people doing Sunday School and the Mother [...]]]></description>

The first one you might call neutral &#8211; an order from West End Embroidery with threads I wanted to try out. These are mostly Threadworx hand-dyed perles, pairs of #5 and #8. I haven&#8217;t got particular projects in mind for them, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;There is one more variation that I want to do&#8221; &#8230; Well, perhaps make that two variations, as I just stumbled across a rather attractive combination of maize yellow fabric and a DMC Variations perle. Irresistible, wouldn&#8217;t you agree? Just the sort of springy, sunny look we need right now! In spite of declaring on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve been following Flights of Fancy for some time you may be aware that I like silks. A lot. My budget doesn&#8217;t, but I do. Unfortunately most of these beautiful silks seem to be produced by people a long way away from the Midlands (of England, that is) &#8211; America, Australia, South Africa &#8230; [...]]]></description>
