What’s New?

Have you seen this book yet? A new one from Carole Lake and Michael Boren. I haven’t really had a chance to pour through it, but I will. Of course this one had to come home with me! I like the smaller compact size which makes it great for throwing it in your stitching bag to take along with you.
 
Planet Earth Fiber’s Ribbon is bringing some of their colors to life in 13mm. They will now have 4mm, 7mm, 10mm and 13mm in this wonderful line of ribbon.
They were showing off their colors of this wider ribbon and after Tony Minieri and I convinced them that we need this wide, wide ribbon to create flowers for canvas…well you will probably see it soon! It will be packaged slightly differently than the smaller widths.
This was a class taught at market using the new Planet Earth Ribbons, canvas by A Collection of Designs.
I loved, love, love this new Santa by Raymond Crawford!
These darling pieces are by Cheryl Schaeffer & Annie Lee Designs. 2 canvases that are back to back, come with the buttons and add-ons and look at them in their little carts! The snowman with the little boy in the first picyure was just featured in the November/December Needlepoint Now along with a stitch guide. This Santa in the second picture I hear is a Limited Edition.
I had a great weekend with The Divine Ms. M! at A Stitch in Time…we laughed and laughed and stitched and she just enlightens and inspires me more than I can say. I took a few pictures, and I need to get those emailed from my phone to me yet. 
This was Friday night as I was getting together a few things for an overnight stay. I hadn’t seen AlleyCat for a long time…and mind you she is usually not one that likes to sleep in bags. So where do I find her? she knew…
and until next time…keep on stitching

About Vicky

Needlepoint, morning noon and evening! what could be better than this? I work on the computer in the daylight hours editing stitch guides and drawing stitches that you will see in the next Needlepoint Now for your stitching pleasure! In between this, there is time for taking pictures of my stitching adventures, Facebook and writing stitch guides for canvas that I am stitching for Needle Deeva, Maggie, Ruth Schmuff and others. Mostly needlepoint you ask? well we will talk about my cats Sylvester and AlleyCat, better known as "the brat". Of course I can't forget Felix who was the love of my life for over 14 years. He broke my heart as he departed for the Rainbow Bridge last year. Oh did I mention baseball?

  1. Nice selection of canvases and ribbon, Vicky. I don’t usually stitch flowers, but I’m sure I’ll find something for those gorgeous ribbons. Cats just can’t resist bags and boxes! I have two cartons in the kitchen, a small Satsuma mandarin box she can barely fit into, and a very carton that held boxes of raspberries, where she can stretch out and luxuriously rub her chin on the corners. She loves both of them.

  2. I just read the San Jose Mercury News Travel Section Geo Quiz. The clue was Padres, adobes and a cat door. Where are you? So you will probably be getting lots of visitors! You are the first thing I thought of…….My real guess is probably San Juan Batista or something like that…

  3. Love all the new products, news, and canvases you shared from market. I think Alley Cat is tired of you leaving her home and is protesting being left out of all the fun. After all she is a star now having posed for a canvas.
