Henry VIII is still provoking gossip, 466 years after his death! The latest news is that Amy Bunger's Home Study for this year is getting ready to start. Amy's going to do a custom commissioned piece from JP Needlepoint that celebrates all six of Henry's wives. You can see it here--"Royal Pain in the Tudors." Scroll down almost to the bottom of the newsletter to see the design and which royal wife is celebrated in which section.

Amy is going to set up a Facebook page called Secret Society Tudor that is open to both Home Study classes. Watch for it if you are taking either section of the Royal Pain in the Tudors class from her.
There are also a set of scissor fobs and matching magnets celebrating each Queen. The fobs cost $36 and the magnets are $14 but you can buy the pair for $48. You can see them all on Amy's "What's New" page. Which do you like best? I'm a Katherine Howard myself....

Haven't you got enough magnets & fobs?
Glenis
Glenis, I am shocked, SHOCKED that you could think I don't have enough magnets! I only have about a dozen, after all. One of the pleasures of starting a new project is picking two to use on it. (I normally use two, one at the top side and one at the bottom side, to park various needles I'm using.) As for scissor fobs, I only have two. I don't really like them. They don't make my scissors any more visible on the table and I don't like the weight of them on the scissors. They also bang into my hand, which bothers me. I guess I do have enough fobs. The ones I do have were gifts that I treasure--I just don't use them. Of course when it comes to actually buying a set of scissors and fobs, well, I would prefer to spend the money on threads and canvases.... Many hugs from CH!
