Michele and the Trick or Treaters UPDATED


Michele of the Bristly Thistle in Michigan has been stitching this Tapestry Tent canvas (which will be distributed by Susan Roberts starting in January, if you want to track it down) of little trick-or-treaters for a while now, displaying photos on her blog with information about the stitches and threads she choose and why. I've been totally charmed by the Bristly Thistle blog and enjoyed each and every photo of each and every figure and part of the canvas. Nice job, Michele!

UPDATE: Judy asked if Susan Roberts was distributing Tapestry Tent designs now. That's what the rumor mill says, Judy.
When I asked Michele permission to use her photo, she told me she had the canvases on order from the distributor for her shop and would do a stitch guide for them when they arrived, but the backorders for TT would ship first. So it'll be a while. Anyone interested should go to Michele's blog and look for the shop website link on the right, then find email Bristly Thistle to get on a waiting list for the canvas and/or stitch guide.

I'm so glad to see this canvas (and Liz) back in circulation - I have a friend in Los Angeles who started this one many months ago - and is doing a gorgeous job. So Susan Roberts is doing these now for her?

Susan Roberts has bought the company and is doing the distribution now is my understanding. Back orders are being cleared out now; later on new orders will ship.
