[Finding_Designs] Re: Message from "Mom" VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

 

I was so sorry to read this announcement. Finding Designs was one of the first groups I joined when I started embroidery. Nowadays it does seem that there are a plethora of groups and multiple cross-postings of multiple ads for the same designs so I can understand your frustration. I like to think that I've been of help to others on this list when I could, but I live over here in Japan and we have been having a bit of a hard go of it these last several months. Between that and some family health issues I haven't been able to be very active with any of my embroidery friends recently. It may be several more months before things settle down enough for me to get back to embroidering and I shall be very sorry if this list is gone before I can return. So at least let me take a moment while I can to say thank you for the many wonderful years. I hope there will be a chance for more, but if not, I appreciate what there was.

Regards,
Cindy in Japan
