Thanksgiving and Other Canvases

If you are hiding out at home, trying to avoid Thanksgiving weekend shopping madness, what you need is nice soothing eye candy to enjoy with a morning (or evening) cup of your favorite beverage.  Nimble Needle is supplying the Thanksgiving canvases by showing off their customer Patty's work.  Patty choose interesting threads and calm stitches to bring her Melissa Shirley Pilgrim canvases to life.

Needle Bug is showing off their customer Caroline's work.  It is varied and interesting to see and there are a lot of closeups to enjoy.

Many thanks to both shops for showcasing some of their customers' work!

Inside the Needle Kingdom

Want to know where needles come from? The Colonial Needle Company, of course! They are the distributors of most of the needle brands we can buy in the United States.

Colonial also distributes the Lee canvases and leather goods we are so fond of.

The above articles are from the Colonial Blog.  I hope to see more fun things from the company here soon.
