Questions-If you are stuck on a project, don't know how to do a stitch, or searching for a pattern or instructions for a project, ask and someone may have your answer.

Hints and Tips -Share what you have learned about needlework with others.

Website locations-If you have a homepage dealing with info on needlework and crafts or know of good websites, please share your links.A word of caution- post a link to copyrighted patterns rather than just copying a pattern.
