Of course you may ask, Rick!  You're a tad late for this year, but your wife
would have been more than welcome to participate.  I am the moderator of the
CROSS-STITCHING echo.  Because FIDOnet has been shrinking the efforts of the
ladies in CRAFTING, CROSS-STITCHING, NEEDLES_THREADS and SEW_&_QUILT were
combined into one Christmas Ornament Exchange of a General Crafting nature.
Ladies all filled out the paperwork, the names were placed into the "hat" and
drawn out into groups.  Each lady made an ornament for each person in her
group PLUS an ornament to be donated to the Mary Bridge Children's Hospital
Festival of Trees.  The groups were very small this year -- three ladies each
-- plus the kid's ornament.

Next year you are more than welcome to join us.  We also do CROSS-STITCHING
specific exchanges, and Pat Knox of THIS echo has several exchanges that run
from time to time throughout the year.
Let's Get Stitchin'!
