I have been working on a special order rag rug for a friend.  We are trying to match colors in a quilt.  We've found the fabrics to match but when I went to order yarn for the warp I found that between the two companies I usually order carpet warp from there are about 5 different shades of maroon.  And only one would really work with the maroon in the quilt.  So about 2 months ago I ordered that color.  And got backordered on it, the only part of my order that didn't come right away.  A call to the company last week told me that they have no idea when or if they will get that color.  So I went online to a couple of the weaving lists that I belong to. Did anybody have several cones of the Leesburg cotton maroon yarn.  I got several responses.  One woman sent a sample that was too red.  But this morning I received a box of cones of yarn that are exactly the right color.  I do love the interent and the friends I have met that way.  Thank you all of you who came to my rescue.
