Silk Purls From Benton and Johnson
I thought you would also like to read a bit about Benton and Johnson's new colored silk purl. In the photo of it used on embroidery, look for the shaded green topknot thing. That's the silk purls.

Stitcherie has a new challenge, which involves games played with your needlepoint. Ada explains it all clearly here.

This isn't the only canvas or challenge that Stitcherie members are participating in. Sheena talks about Camouflage Birds on her blog which is a more traditional challenge for the Stitcherie group.

Either would be great fun. Wish there were more hours in the day...!
UPDATE: Ruth Schmuff is playing along.

Needlepoint Picture Frames
I love needlepoint picture frames when they are beautifully finished. Finishing is hard for these items, but I think Rittenhouse has nailed it.
