Another Thanksgiving Character

Kelly Clark has posted a photograph of her latest finished Thanksgiving character from the series she is doing as a mail order class with extra lesson information on her blog at Needle Works in Austin--the Indian Brave.  Isn't he handsome?  I love his bow!

Shops Love Dog and Cat Canvases UPDATED

Actually, I think we all love dog and cat canvases. Even folks who don't want a pet in real life enjoy seeing those sweet, expressive eyes or a funny pet canvas. Rittenhouse has highlighted several dog canvases from their collection.

Needlepoint of La Jolla is going even further.  They are Going to the Cats and Dogs in June.   Check with the shop for details.  If you scroll down and down and down, you'll get glimpses inside the shop and find a map to locate the fun.
