Re: Xmas Biscornu Exchange 2010 (Sign up CLOSED - Post list up!)

Dear Kell, I start getting worried. I've sent some other international packages the same time I've sent to you. And all of them have already reached their new homes. Hope, you'll get yours asap.

Why don't you try to dye the fabric yourself? It's so much fun and the results are just awesome!

Re: Needle size versus Fabric Count

Thank you for the link!
As for me the largest needle I use is 26, and mostly it's ok for all counts from 20 to 40 (for me), and it work pretty good with metallics as well :)
