JAPANESE CRESTS

DELPHI FORUM NEWS
Delphi will start charging Forum members in the very near future. What this means for us, is that if we continue our Discussion Forum on Delphi each member will have to pay $3.95 per month to Delphi in order to have access. We are discussing different options for a new home for our Forum. Your input would be appreciated. http://forums.delphiforums.com/fiberarts/messages/?msg=272.1

IN THE NEWS
I now have a live News Feed on my site, so that you can see the latest headlines in weaving, spinning, knitting, sewing and other fiber crafts that are in the news. I'm still tweaking the "keywords" to get better and more relevant news coverage.

You can find the news Headlines by going to my home page. Scroll down towards the bottom of the page. In the left hand column will be the up-to-date Fiber Arts News

In case you missed these, here are some of week's highlights.
