Some new items are showing up in the shops already. Amy Bunger's on-line store has started posting photos of new floral canvases here. The newest things are at the top of the page.

Janet Perry clued me into a new strong magnet that is unusual in that it has a metal heart design on top. If you ever wished those decorative magnets were stronger or that the top didn't block the magnetic forces, this might be the set for you. A photo is on the left side of this article.

Finally, Old World Designs has started to post photographs of their new club, The Twelve Days of California. Instead of a Christmas theme, the round ornaments all showcase California icons. Three designs are on their website now. You'll have to bookmark the site and check later to see them all.

They also have a neat purse kit based on a Zecca canvas (a little more than halfway down this page) that is a sort of Country Style Goes Crazy. It looks like a really fun thing to stitch.

Jane, was it you who posted a link to the needlepoint of the carrot lady walking the broccoli pups? If it was, can you point me in that direction again...Thanks
Yes, it was me, Donna. The canvas is one of Ruth Schmuff's and the picture was on her blog. Here is the blog entry with the photo--Lee Cox is stitching this piece and will have a stitch guide for it when she is finished.

Here is Ruth's website. The canvas is one of her designs. There are three carrot lady canvases, actually, but the one when she is walking her broccoli pups is the best one in my opinion.

Hope this helps.
Thank you for all the new designs, trade show news, finishing tricks, and those lovely Christmas ornaments.
And now comes the wide-eyed dragon. How ya" going to stitch those eyes? I can't wait to see but I bet it will be striking.
And if that isn't enough you are going to entertain us with The Cape Cod Dogs. Wheeeeeee!!!
Margaret, you are having way too much fun! LOL
I'm glad you are paying attention. I will talk about the new canvases once I answer MN Stitcher's question about hte Nutcracker Santa tomorrow, ok?
