Let's Talk Trianglepoint

Melita Glavin explores trianglepoint in the latest issue of Needle Pointers magazine.

Sherlee Lantz's book on this stitch was really popular in the late 1970s.  You can browse a copy through the Internet Archive, or buy your own copy through eBay.

Brenda's back from her holidays and stitching Kurdy Biggs' "Nordic Gnome."

And he's nearly done!

Sadly, this adorable piece is a class only at this time but there's plenty of charts on the Threedles website to enchant you.

Stitchery Under Southern Skies

Melita has added a new project book to her library:  "Stitchery Under Southern Skies" by Mary Anderson and Debbie Deem.  It's spiral bound and features eleven needlepoint projects from various authors.  It also has some fascinating tips from the talented authors.  I am eagerly awaiting Melita trying projects from this booklet which is new to me.

Needlepoint Angels Website Now Live!

The Needlepoint Angels website is now live!  What is Needlepoint Angels, you ask?  It's a charity to help needlepointers in need.  You can donate cash or you can donate stash.  All donations are either given to a stitch who has lost their stash in a disaster or sold in the Needlepoint Angels website and the cash used to replace a project that was lost.
