    Sorry missed this question earlier - there's a thread on sewing clothes but I haven't seen anything on home linens and furnishings. maybe an idea for a thread on a new forum? ;)

    I think we should! :D Does everyone else want to or would you rather have the thread here? I already run a scrapbook forum and dh has a rcheli forum so i dont mind having a hand in or setting it up etc but dont want to step on any toes if anyone else wants to do it - as long as we have somewhere to chat i dont mind at all :D
    If you don't mind setting one up that would be great.I wouldn't have a clue where to start but there are loads of things I would like to be able to say and do but can't here.

    I'm not able to set up the forum but happy to help with anything 'backstage' as it were, once its sorted. I'm currently indexing the complete cookery collection on OS, as you may know (although I haven't done much of it lately - sorting, packing, decorating and making curtains is taking all my time and energy); I'll get back to that as soon as I can, I really enjoy it and I wouldn't mind being involved in some way in a new forum. :)
