TNNA Report: Baby Things (and Amy) UPDATED

Michele at Bristly Thistle has posted new baby designs on her blog. These are by J. Child and since many of us are lucky enough to have babies in our lives, I bet they will be very popular.  Personally, I love the pig riding the wagon behind the tractor!

UPDATE:  Amy Bunger has updated her 2012 TNNA folder on Facebook with a few more wonderful things.  If you have a FB account, look for Amy's Golden Strand.

If you have a Facebook account, check out the new photos What's the Point? is posting from the TNNA show.  Beth Robertson has posted a photograph of The Artists Collection booth and for new SHEAR Creations canvases.  Amy's Golden Strand has posted 22 new photos in a Winter 2012 TNNA photo album.  Search for any of the highlighted FB account names above and you should be able to find the photos.

Barbi Canvas Art has revealed their brand new website. This is a new company that specializes in graphic designs which are perfect for embellishment.  The "Postcards" are my favorites but don't miss clicking on Initially Yours 1 and 2 to see their alphabets.

TNNA Report: Not All About the Cats

My suspicion has been that cat canvases were going to be very prominent at the TNNA winter 2012 show. Ruth Schmuff says I am wrong.  Many of her new canvases have another subject entirely....

However, I may be right and Ruth's wrong.  Check this out.

TNNA Report: Bristly Thistle's Slide Show (and more)

Bristly Thistle is awake enough to have posted a slide show of new pieces from Amanda Lawford and Derek Clark (Amanda's son). The designs are both simple and complex but all have a graphic punch.
