Pear Salad (with Montenegrin)

Ruth Schmuff's new mystery class started the end of March. This one is called Pear Collage-- a canvas from Ruth's Tis the Season  needlepoint company.  My favorite part of Lesson One has to be the lime green stripes done in Montenegrin Stitch.  I am eager to see what Ruth does next!

The Hari-kuyo Needlebook Class

The needlebook cyberclass that Susan Elliott is teaching is winding down.  If there is more interest, Susan will teach it again late this year or early next year in time to have the needlebook finished before Hari-Kuyo (Festival of Broken Needles).

Here's the direct link to the Flickr account that has photos of many of the needlebooks that were made in Susan's class.
