New Notions:

  Retro Stripe Towels - Pkg of 3 - Great for embroidery for that "vintage" look


Ideal thread to remove basting stitches.  Thread dissolves with water -  Saw a recommendation that it was good to use when basting to make fringe on your embroidery machine - just remember to change your bobbin back to regular thread!
