I've been a member from the beginning tho I must confess I am a little
behind since they increased the frequency.
I recently discovered that I could get all the back programs (originally
you could only view them for a year) and when I asked if this was a
permanent thing, Alex's husband replied and said that they hoped it
would be. I have always thought that if they base themselves on a
magazine, then you should be able to keep the back issues you have paid
for indefinitely, or at least for longer than a year.
Its good being able to go back and review programs - I recently found
just what I was looking for in one of the first ones.
I don't use many of the other facilities there - if I did I never would
get round to quilting!
I'll have a look at the threading technique in the morning.
The problem I've been have recently in hand quilting is not the needle
coming unthreaded, but the needle eye cutting through the thread. It
does it with most threads, and different needles. Driving me mad!
