HI HP, I was overwhelmed with the great response to my request for embroidery floss for the Women's Shelter. The first 5 people to respond (Joan, Lauren, Mary, DM and Ashley) are giving me more than enough for the project, so you can use your evening for something more relaxing than looking through your sewing box to find floss for us. THANK YOU to all the responders and for your suggestions for resources. We will be donating any extras we have to the Center for Creative Reuse over in Pt Breeze. It is lovely to live in such a thoughtful and caring neighborhood with the tremendous resource of the listserve and its dedicated, diligent moderators. Gratefully, PAM   "Perfect balance is an illusion-- just try for upright."
