Looking for needlework org.

Thanks Bruce,
But I'm not computer literate enough to know what's wrong with this address. I get the message "URL is not valid and cannot be loaded". I even took out the letter/number combination behind the .com/ but got the same result. :(

Try these original links - I used the "tinyurl" ones in case the URLs wrap:
Strange, Maureen. I just clicked on all three tinyURLs, and they all popped up fine. Aren't computers fiendish??
