I need to go out to get some DMC and Orvus. I’d like to get some quilting thread, plain fabric, and acid-free mounting board (not the sticky kind) too, to try lacing some pieces to prepare for framing them later.
I haven’t been in a craft store in too long—I hadn’t heard of these StitchBow things until I saw them on the DMC site today.
I have absolutely ZERO desire to go anywhere near any store, though. In fact, I fear it. Ewwww! Lines! Crazy people! Noise!
