NE Cooperative Extension Site Does anyone know what happened to the articles there?
edupraz Intermediate MA USA Member since 9/13/06 Posts: 13	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 10/18/06 11:31 AM The NE Cooperative Extension Web site often had really great resources in their textile section. I was looking for an article about matching stripes this morning (linked from the knowledge base), and sadly, it seems to be gone. Does anyone know what happened? It looks like the whole textile section is gone. Maybe there's another way to get to those articles?

HOWEVER...I did telephone the NE Extension don't know where their textile info is, but it is just gone. TX has an excellent site even with info about fitting it is here: Texas Cooperative Extension BookstoreUnder the "topic" list click on "clothing." You can download TONS of info for free if you have Acrobat Reader. -- Edited on 10/18/06 3:56 PM --

Wow, that must use a lot of storage space. ------ With a great wardrobe that's still in the flat-fabric stage.

I have notified them that there's a problem, so we'll see what happens. AnneM, The link you provided seems to be working quickly for me. ------ Liana http://sewintriguing.blogspot.com/ http://artisanssquare.com/sg/ http://www.pbase.com/lianasews
