Chandail's New Website

In other great shop news, Chandail's redone their website. As you know the shop was recently sold and the new owner updated the website to reflect the changes she is introducing and the things she's keeping like they were.  Please note that with proof of ANG or EGA membership, the shop will give you ten percent off any purchase between the dates of October 10-November 30, 2012.

One significant change is the new monthly clubs that are being introduced.  The clubs include Tony Miniei's Christmas Song ornament series and Melissa Shirley's angel ornaments.

I think Tony's Christmas Carol set is a charted series, which is one of the rare monthly clubs for the counted canvas work people.  It also looks like there will be a Brenda Stofft series featuring her Halloween hats, but there isn't much information on the website, just a teaser photo.

We'll have to stay tuned.

The Yarn Barn Lives!

The Yarn Barn in San Antonio has a new owner!  Yarn Barn of San Antonio Texas is their Facebook account name, so if you have an account, please go "like" them so you can keep up with anything posted there.  There still isn't a website that I can find.

Paisley Alert

Folks who love paisley patterns will be interested to hear that The Needlepointer is taking orders for a series of paisley animals created by Karen Grant Designs. These are really new and just now going into production, but you can order at The Needlepointer's website if you don't mind waiting a bit for delivery.
