There are lots of new things popping up all over. First of all, Bristly Thistle's found a neat new tool to help with stretcher bars.

Unique New Zealand has created a smaller ornament version of their Keep Calm series. Thanks for the heads-up, Vicky!

Finally, Barbara Bergsten has come up with new rolly polly Santas that she calls Santa Stitches. She needs help coming up with the right threads for 13 count, however. Can you give her some recommendations?

Thank you for helping me get thread ideas for my Santas. Hoping to start this weekend! I'm stitching them on #14 mesh (they also come on #18). Any ideas Jane? Thank you!!! Barbara
I was thinking you might go really wild and use tapestry wool....
Hi Jane,
I really love Barbara Bergsten's new upcoming rolly polly Santas. They are so cute. Barbara is a clever designer and is a nice lady, too. Thank you for EVERYTHING to you. Hugs, Robin
I agree. These are darling! Have you seen what she's done on the first one?!
