Needlepoint Now News

Dale at Canvases Be Gone brings us news of a change at Needlepoint Now magazine plus a controversy over the magazine's publishing the names of finishers.  Thanks for the update and the news and for your support for a magazine I enjoy very much!  Without Dale's posting I wouldn't' have known that folks were unhappy with the magazine, although of course I did know that many folks are not thrilled to have the magazine go from line drawn projects to publishing painted canvas stitch guides.

Wherever you stand on that topic (and even though I write stitch guides, I am sorry to see the magazine concentrating so much on counted thread and painted canvas designs since I love line drawn designs), Needlepoint Now is a much anticipated publication at my house.
