Looking for needlework org.

I think I read a message on here saying that there are not any orgs. in the U.S. for needlework. Is that so? I was interested in joining one that covered all types of needlework.

And how about other countries? England, Ireland, Scotland, etc. Or is forming orgs, assns, guilds et al for this love of all kinds of needlework more of a North American phenomenon?

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??
