Donate Needlepoint, Teach Needlepoint

Rittenhouse Needlepoint in Philadelphia has developed an unusual approach to teaching needlepoint.  They are asking for donations of supplies (and teaching time if you'd like to pitch in) to teach needlepoint to those who face economic, physical or mental challenges.  Here are the details.  Talk to Rittenhouse if you can help.

The Delight of Finishing

As we all know, the final step in our stitching is making up our needlepoint into something fabulous. Today I have some wonderful finishing for you to enjoy. The Kelly Clark crazy quilt pillow will be in Needlepoint Now soon. The other pieces will go to their owners to grace their houses with something unique and hand made, which I think is important in this mass produced age.  Enjoy all the beauty that is being shared in the links below.
