Introducing Sac du Couture by Kimberly Crum Design



Since I couldn't work on Surfin Santa until the glue dried Sunday, I pulled out my next project, which is a counted thread laying tool and scissor case from Kimberly Crum Design.  I greatly admire Kim's designs, which are hard to find these days.  Ruth Schmuff has the best selection at her online store.

Stitcher's Paradise also has charts available, and

I see some are available at the Destashing Blog.  Read the header to see how to buy items here.  You can find the Kimberly Crum items by clicking on Counted Canvas in the Label section and browsing the charts that are keyworded that way.

Kimberly Crum charts appear on eBay occasionally and you also may be able to order them from Kim herself via Needle Works in Austin.  Just ask for Kimberly Smith's work.

Jane, This will be a fun project to follow. How exciting for us. It's cold in Memphis today, and it's coming your way. Bundle up. Robin

I'm looking forward to having a pretty case for traveling stitching tools, especially the beads. There is a new bead store in my area and I will enjoy picking the right edging and closure beads once the stitching is finished.

Thanks, Pat. I like the soft pinkish browns mixed with ecru, pink and darker browns and gold. I just hope I can find beads that look good with these colors. Fortunately, there is a bead store 30 minutes west of me and another 30 minutes east of me.

I get to go shopping! LOL
