Since I haven't seen a post, I thought this group would be interested to know that Ginnie Thompson passed away on December 5.

I'm so sorry. She gave so much to the industry.

How sad - I've only stitched with her flower thread a few times but have nearly the full collection as I enjoyed it that much!

It's been a sad month with Olwyn Mary and now Ginnie Thompson. I have some of her very early newsletters. She was one of the people most responsible for the revival of cross stitch and counted embroidery in North America in the 1970s.
