Do you stab yourself a whole lot when using a long sharp beading needle? Have you gone blind trying to thread a beading needle? Have you done more French knots that you thought humanly possible on one piece just so you don't have to open a box or tube of beads? Which will immediately jump out of said box or tube and fly all over the room? Do you avoid any piece that requires beads because you just can't stand beading any more?
Ann might have a solution.

Introducing Coni's Patriotic Stars
The Spinster Stitcher has finished Stars! It's gorgeous. I never would have thought to use a red, white and blue (with gold) color scheme but she pulled it off with her usual panache. Applause!

Why Basketweave is the King of Stitches
If you ever thought basketweave wasn't useful, this pillow shows otherwise. Can you imagine any other background stitch that would set off the central design and the borders as well? I can't.
