Thank you Kathie! Enjoy! http://silkmothsewing.blogspot.com/2...1_archive.html Nancy |

So, how many of you while researching info on vintage machines and usage of vintage machines start folders of the google sites that you found helpful? And how many of you find that you can't find the info that you bookmarked when you are looking for the info to help others? So, you have to just google again. Or when you do recall the bookmarked site where the info is located, you find the site is no longer up; so, you have to google again. It's so easy to find oneself in the state of confusion while searching through bookmarks. Time for me to delete bookmarks and organize folders, or just google for the information in the first place. :? :roll: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-81136-1.htm :-D |
Nancy, I must say that you are a walking, talking encyclopedia. How do you manage to retain all of your information? You are so helpful and I do so appreciate you and the fact that you are so willing to share with us. Thank you for being the wonderful person that you are, Kathie

Thought I saved it, but cannot find it--and have no clue where it is in all these pages--at least I think it was in here somewhere!!!!!!! hope someone has it marked....or a better memory.... |

So, how many of you while researching info on vintage machines and usage of vintage machines start folders of the google sites that you found helpful? :? :roll: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-81136-1.htm :-D Did you notice how I made a description of each website, put a colon mark and then two spaces before I edit/copy the website or whatever I am saving? That way, you can click on the website without having to hit edit each time you want to quickly access a page. Sure wish I had started way back when Billy opened this shop! One day... maybe, one day I will begin at page 1 and save the incredible info on vintage machines. :-D |
