Jumping into this a little late- I just started doing crewel, and also spin. I thought about spinning crewel yarn, especially out of long-staple, shiny wools like Cotswold. Then I started to wonder why traditional crewel wool was so woolly, instead…

Good luck in using your handspun.

My name is Susan Lenz. I've organized a large postcard and ATC trade for an exhibition next January. It is called CYBER FYBER. I don't have a trade with anyone from Hawaii yet...and would love to. Please consider it!

- thanks for the comment about my avatar, I really don't like how I photograph so didn't want to use my own photo - this one is a page I painted for a fabric book exchange, I've started to use it on all my internet groups, I think it's nice to recognise someone this way....
Profile Information
- What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
- I have done several thread arts. I started with sewing, progressed to crochet and knitting. I really like amigurumi and miniature bears, dolls, and faeries/fairies. I've discovered hand embroidery while added details to crochet dolls and learning stitches from Mary Corbet's Needle N Thread site. I then found an Inspirations magazine and ...my passion is now embroidery. ;)
