Are you in need of Inspiration? Then run--don't walk!--to the Stitchamaze website and sign up for the e-newsletter. Perhaps inspired by the writing she is doing for Needlepoint Now magazine, Rosalyn Cherry-Soliel is sending out a newsletter packed with links, information and photos of her current projects, and planning to release a DVD about her work next summer. Whether you plan to tackle canvas collage or not, you will love reading about her art needlepoint.

If your inspiration needs different food, how about reading Mary Corbet's review of Embroidered Flora and Fauna?

Are you a threadaholic or bitten by the History Bug? Then you will want to seek out the Spring 2009 issue of Sampler and Antique Quarterly.

Finally, if you just need eye candy in your life, try searching Flickr. Type in flowers or Siamese cats or landscapes or toys or anything else that catches your fancy and explore the photographs folks have published publicly on that topic. I am using Flickr for inspiration for the flowers that will cover Holi's halo eventually.
