    stitchers if any remain.

    Send me an e-mail with your request, including your mailing address, by
    5:00 PM USA Eastern Time, Wednesday, April 8, 1998. That night I'll
    sort them by location and time of arrival, and post them 4/9 or 4/10
    (depends on how the packing is going).

    I've checked the postage requirements, and know that each chart will run
    me a bit in postage --- but all I'd like in return is a picture postcard
    of a local site or scene after you receive the chart(s). I'll send my address when I confirm you will be receiving your requested chart(s).

    This is meant as a "good" diversion for me from the drudgery and anxiety
    of packing, showing house, etc., etc. If I go crazy in the meantime,
    I'll try to let you know.:-)

    Errrrrr, did you notice that you're replying to a post
    from *last century*?

    I highly doubt that the OP will ever see your reply much
    less still have the charts and be willing to mail them
    considering the current crisis.

    If you're looking for freebies, I've got one already up
    on my website (a sampler, Heart's Desire) plus another one
    should be going live either tonight or tomorrow (a bookmark,
    Find the Key to the Mystery).

    Look for them at http://logicalinsight.net and click on the
    Around the House topic to see a list of patterns and other
    articles on the right side of your browser.

    No ads, no cookies, no tracking on our website EVER.
