Butterflies, Moths and a Dragonfly

Butterflies, Moths and a Dragonfly -- All of the above are featured in SharonG's newest insect designs that were introduced at the TNNA show in Columbus in June.  SharonG has updated her website with images of the new canvases plus her first book and the canvases are very beautiful.  Each has a wonderful border that compliments the winged creature featured as the central motif.

By the way, SharonG just taught at Nimble Needle so they have a few autographed copies of her first book available if you are a collector.

Father's Day (Belated)

I wish I'd seen this in time to post it for Father's Day!  Mix old silk ties and bargello together and what do you get...?

If you want to celebrate Mother's Day in needlepoint, how about one of these purses?
