Prompted by a question by a friend, I started looking for information about where to get wire for stumpwork and stumbled across this very helpful site. Not only does Elizabeth talk about sources for wire, she talks about the various styles of stumpwork that various prominent practitioners of this art do and how to choose a first project and a book on the topic. She also covers silk ribbon embroidery briefly. Thanks, Elizabeth.

Fabulous for Halloween
Sandy Arthur just posted a good photo of the canvas she's teaching for ANG's San Bernardino chapter in California. She has a stumpwork nose! She wears a feathery party hat and her orange kinky hair is fresh from the beauty parlor. Her teeth are the sort that would catch the eye of any dentist. I think she is ready for a night on the town.

Witches aren't really my thing but any stitcher should take a careful look at the navy swirl background and the fabulous braided look of the green border. I think the witch has a green brick stitch face!
This class is offered to long distance chapter members and SBCANG welcomes those who live far away. If you'd like to take the class and have access to other wonderful classes the chapter sets up, you can email Pat Correz at the address Sandy includes in her article or check out the chapter website.
