         Oh gee, I feel like it's Christmas.  That would be great if I
could have a copy.  I'd be happy to write to the person who taught the
class and get permission to use it.  Either way (CD or copies) would be
nice.  Where are you?  I'll be at Laurel's Prize Tourney and can get it 
there if that would work!!    I'll bring you a thank you present!

----------------I plan on being there but I could send it to you next
week if you like.  If I remember correctly the lady that taught the
class said it was fine to use the materials.

as I find them I'm happy to send them... I'm going to start looking at
paintings and see if I can translate what the pattern looks like.  We
have so much documentation on blackwork that I was going to see if I
could find other types.  I started doing more embroidery and would like
to do some more  period designs for the SCA.  I've been doing some that
are early 20th or late 19th century just because I think they are so
lovely.

-------Wonderful.  I haven't done embroidery for years but I was
thinking about taking it up again. 

Esther - what type of spindle do you want?  Top or bottom weight?  I
have some homemade ones that I can send your way.  Do you have fiber for
it.  I also can find something on milkweed spinning (I betcha!)

Thanks ya'll.
