Welcome. Please read all the NOTES. They explain our policies, and how the software works. Join any groups that interest you. I especially recommend the BOBBINLACE BEGINNERS group.

Look at the gray bar above and click on TUTORIALS. If you have any questions about our site, contact me and I'll try to help.
