Next Saturday, May 5, SharonG is going to teach a class at Nimble Needle which is just north of Philadelphia. The class is full now but I thought you'd love to see some of SharonG's canvases that one of Nimble Needle's customers has stitched from Sharon's guides. Yes, SharonG not only paints beautiful canvases, she stitches then and writes her own stitch guides. There really ought to be a law against one person being so talented!
Sharon also has a wicked sense of humor, hence the horses asses canvases. In person they are beautiful and delicate, but they are also quite funny. Stitch one in honor of your ex!

Nimble Needle will be bringing Sharon back to teach this year if at all possible, so keep an eye on their blog so you can sign up for the next class and stitch your own rear view of a pony. (Here's a link to the other designs in the series. The Christmas one is my favorite. I might have to stitch it one day in honor of those idiots we have to see each holiday season.)

Look! A New Atlanta Shop!
Accoutrement Designs, the company behind Fob Friends and Mag Friends, just let us know there's a new shop in Atlanta-Atlanta Needlepoint and Monogramming.

Hurrah! A new shop, wherever it may be, is always cause for celebration. Here's their minimal website. I'm hoping they have a great future in front of them.

Roger Garrett is Dead
Roger Garrett is the creator and manufacturer of the Stitchmate floor stand, sold under the Cozy Cottage name. These floor stands are favorites of several of my stitching friends, and they are very sorry to have lost Mr. Garrett to cancer at the young age of 64.

Here's a bit about the company. Their website is down now unfortunately.

Here's a nice series of photographs from last year of the Stitchmate. It is beautiful, isn't it?

My condolences to his wife Victoria, and to his family and friends and of course to all my fellow stitchers who love the Stitchmate products. Thanks for letting us know about this, Lenor.
