I've been saving up special offers I've seen here and there and today seems like a good day to outline them all. Orna Willis is having a birthday, so she is offering a free design to anyone who spends $50 at her online shop. There are three to choose between, all gorgeous and interesting stitching. If you have been considering buying one of her pieces, now's the time to buy and pick up a second design for free.

Ridgewood Needlepoint is having a Mother's Day special. From now until Mother's Day (May 13 this year), you can buy the three DVD set of Tony Minieri's Back to Basics One for $100. Each DVD is priced at $40 individually so this is a nice little savings for the entire group.

Orna Willis has discovered leather thimbles and boy! Does she love them!!! I have one of these myself. I find it a little stiff but then I don't use it often, just for real problem areas. It wasn't very expensive if I remember correctly, so checking these out is a good idea for those who don't like traditional thimbles but who need protection and a little extra needle pushing power.

Kreinik has posted a bit about a hand made needle case using their threads, beads and a lot of ingenuity. It's a lovely little thing, isn't it?
