"Beginning Jan 2, all Jim Wurth designs (excluding teaching pieces) will be available from Threadneedle Street at ThreadSt@AOL.com. This includes individual ornaments from the Dodecagon series. Kits are available. Contact Marianne at the Street. She is taking advanced orders this week."
Jim Wurth
I believe Jim is talking about Threadneedle Street in Palm Desert, California, not the shop of the same name in Washington State. I think there is a Threadneedle Street shop in Mississippi, too. Yes, the one in Mississippi specializes in charted designs from Walter Anderson. But the one I think that will sell Jim's charts is in Palm Desert. Their phone number used to be 760-340-0411 but I don't know if this is still the right number.
Jim Wurth doesn't have a website but you can see his Dodecagon series on Pierrette's blog. She took the original cyberclass on these magnificent pieces and posted photos of the finished designs.

UPDATE: Liz is stitching Jim's Xanadu with her guild this year. I thought you'd like to see the photo as this is featured in Needle Pointers which means anyone with a copy can stitch it, too. Actually, I think once I finish Stars, it'll be my next counted project. (Many thanks to Liz who corrected me when I said the instructions were in NP Now.)

Today's Canvas/Chart of the Day project is another of Jim's designs.

Thank you, Jane, for the news. I've done just one of the Wurth designs; they are all lovely. I'm not usually a chart stitcher, but I found his instructions very clear.

It is the shop in Palm Desert. I got all Jim's designs from Marianne who provided excellent service - all the way to South Africa. I also did the cyber class which is when I first bought goodies from Marianne.
Thanks, Odette. Nice to know I gave folks correct info.
Correction: Jim Wurth's Xanadu was in NeedlePointers, July 2009, (not Needlepoint Now). I believe back issues are available through the ANG website.
Thank you, Liz. I appreciate the correction and will update the article.
Can you please give a link to NP etc. yahoo group. Uncessessfully searched myself. Thanks!
Ponia, I am not quite sure if you meant the Yahoo Group for NP Etc. or the one Jim Wurth had for his Dodecagon Series of ornaments. Here are both, NP Etc. first.

You'll have to copy/paste the links. Comments don't allow me to make URLs clickable.
Thanks a lot! Found it! You are an angel!
Happy to help out, Ponia!
can some one help me with the Green color way that was done on PINK CHAMPAGNE please please please
What sort of help do you need with the green version of Pink Champagne? Do you need a list of colors? Let me know exactly what you need and I'll post the question on Blog and on the Needlepoint Group Facebook page.
yes i do need the list of colors .. Thank you so much
Ok, I'll see if I can find anyone who did the design in green instead of pinks. Hopefully they kept a list of the colors they used. Stay tuned. I'll post about this to the Facebook NP Group today and on Blog tomorrow.
Ok, I did a little research and discovered that SBCANG posted photos of the original pink and the green and mocha colors on their site. Here are the photos. It's the green/mocha colors you want, right?

You are in luck. The chapter has a list of colors on their site and as I am a member, I managed to get the PDF file location. If you can open and print this out, you should be all set.
