Well not me actually…Hug Me is the company name that makes these wonderful bags. Made right here in the US and this is their newest addition to their line, a needlework tool box. I absolutely love these! It would be great to keep your scissors, laying tool, bunka brush, needles, extra needles, needle threader, a pen and just so much more!

Look at how beautifully these bags are made! wouldn’t this make a wonderful gift for a special someone? or even for yourself! You could fill the pockets with threads and tools, maybe a gift card or even just as is. I just love the fabrics used on this one. The bags measure about 12″ long and 2″ deep. Look for these great bags at your LNS; local needlepoint shop or FNS; favorite needlepoint shop!

Actually this is who you might really want to hug! Let me introduce you to Miss Mabel, one of the newest additions to the Poodle Plantation at the studios of Needlepoint Now. A black standard poodle who came to live their along with her brother Ollie.

Mabel was hard at work supervising the photo shoot of the Hug Me bags to be seen in an up and coming product review in Needlepoint Now. Where the pictures will be soooooooo much better than anything that I can ever think of taking!

I have really goofed off the last 3 days and am feeling rather guilty about it. I realize that now I have just but 2 weeks left to get what I want to  or should I say I need to get done before I leave for seminar. Okay no more goofing off, work! work! work! The laundry basket is full and ooh the plants and orchids need to be watered. Ooh well there is always tomorrow for that.

The cats are not up to sharing the stage with that D-O-G, so they are being rather aloof this morning. What would they have thought if I dognapped Mabel and brought her home with me? and until next time…keep on stitching
