  1. Gary and Christine were talking about “storage” a few podcasts ago. One of the storage items I use is a cardboard tote box for the floss baggies where I keep my DMC floss in skeins. I have found the boxes on the web at Yarn Shop.com and today I received a Herrshners catalog (they also have a web site) and noted that the same boxes are in the catalog. They call it the Floss Tote. This system has worked for me for many years and I do recommend it to others!!

  2. Thanks, Vickie. Here’s a link to the boxes on Herrschners’ site:

  3. The gloves for supporting wrists are great. I have had trouble with my right wrist since I was 16. I use the gloves all the time.
    How is Christine ‘s light situation going?

  4. Timely discussion on stretcher bars. Just getting ready to put my first piece of canvas on the bars. Thanks

    1. We’re here to help. Good luck with the new chart.

  5. Please tell Christine that I always have my thumbtacks fall out so I switched to staples some years back.

    Thanks!
