This morning I have a round-up of new or fun items I've seen while cruising the World Wide Web each morning. Randi's stocking some fascinating new frame weight canvases for her shop. Never heard of frame weights? Randi explains why a stitcher might want one in their stitching nest very well. The second link is to Randi's shop website, in case you have more questions or want to order.

I've never seen a Hanukkah pillow before. What a great idea!

Threadaholic alert! Vicky's posted great photos of the new colors of thread from Rainbow Gallery. There's Silk Lame Braid, Petite Silk Lame Braid, Fyre Werks, and Neon Rays Plus (including their new glow in the dark orange).

I've never seen earmuff canvases before. The finishing is superb! Of course you can make a double sided ornament if you don't want earmuff style finishing, but this is a very different and fun way to make up ornaments.

By the way, the earmuff canvases are from Linda Lahm Designs. Don't miss Rudolph in earmuffs!

On a slightly different topic, Orna Willis is proudly showing off finished projects from her students. I have to say, things look great! Nothing makes you see a charted piece with fresh eyes than seeing it stitched, often in different colors from the original.
