Erhman Sale

The British needlepoint kit company Ehrman is having their yearly October sale. You can see the kits for sale on their website.  These are classic designs, meant for wool tent stitches, but at this price you could pick up a kit and substitute some of the threads for a more American look.

Remember My Victims

I've done quite a few interviews here on Blog with famous, infamous (ok, not really but it sounded good) and unknown folks from the world of needlepoint. All these are preserved here on Blog and are revealed by a little searching. Search on "Interviews" in the search box in the upper left corner and lots will pop up--an interview with Jay Patterson of Rainbow Gallery, a peek into Leigh Designs' studio and design process, a look at Melissa Shirley's stitching, a visit with Margaret Condy, interviews with the twin designer/shop owner team of Eileen Aird and Elizabeth Hess, a visit with Ruth Dilts and much, much more!

Plus you'll find links to other folks' interviews on other sites.

I tag every article published on Blog with keywords to help folks find things later.  Do a little digging and the most amazing things will turn up!
