The New Ehrman

Ehrman Tapestry, famous for thirty years as the height of British tapestry design, has revamped their website.  The home page has a short video about design by Kaffe Fassett, their most famous designer (and my personal hero).  You can even download their most recent catalogue from there!

Of course if you are less interested in browsing and more interested in the sales, here is their summer sale page.

Not everyone wants to embellish painted canvases.  A good many of us want a well designed wool pillow that will make our homes a bit more beautiful and cozy.  Ehrman caters to this subset of needlepointers and has done very well for themselves by doing so.

Darn your enabling skills!
I found the perfect kit for summer stitching that doesn't require any thinking. And then, of course, I had to buy the companion piece. Summer doesn't last long enough to get both stitched!

Congratulations, Sharon. Enjoy the stitching and leave the second piece for next summer's relaxation.
