New Blog - Flickr Embroidery Group Blog

As you may have noticed, I am now using Flickr for hosting my pictures. And I've joined a few groups, including the Embroidery group. People post pictures of completed and some ongoing projects. There is an associated discussion forum as well.

The group has decided to start a blog - The Flickr Embroidery Group Blog at http://flickrembroidery.blogspot.com/

Each day of the week has a theme. I will be posting on Tuesdays and miscellaneous finds from the web and a focus on historical embroidery. Today is Free Vintage Pattern day. Come over for a visit.
