May Day


I managed a few letters in the sampler. I think my left hand is healed and I should be able to get moving along on some projects.

To see what this should look like: link to photo here.

I am still baffled that needlework caused so much pain in my hand, while tatting didn't bother me at all. It remains a mystery.

Did you receive your issue?


In addition to the wonderful photos, projects, articles,
did you notice the survey for readers?

Says the survey can be taken and mailed in, or may be taken online at:
www.sanqmagazine.com

I didn't see the online area for the survey. I think it is a good idea to poll the readers!
