The Royal Pain Starts

Session One of Amy Bunger's latest Home Study class has shipped. I thought you would like to see the first kit and all the threads, which Linda just got in the mail.  This is for the JP Designs canvas called Royal Pain in the Tudors which celebrates all the wives of Henry VIII in a fabric and jewel collage.

Ain't Dead UPDATED

Everyone will be thrilled to learn that Enriched Stitch has NOT closed, contrary to the rumor mill's whispers.

I hope this isn't a trend.  A shop member of Needlepoint Nation just mention this happened to them.  I wasn't able to find the message in the avalanche of them to know whether it was the same shop above.

When you hear a story about a shop, try and find out the facts before you pass the story around, ok?  We don't want to accidentally damage one of our beloved shops.

The Magnets (and Scissors Fobs) of Spring

Accoutrement Designs shows off their spring-thremed magnets and scissors fobs.  Note that some of these have sold out already, so you'll have to get lucky to snag some things.  There's a hint of a new magnet in the photo, by the way.  Is that a pink pig?

Ruth Schmuff is also showcasing the magnets and metal display frames in stock at her shop.  Love the enameled bird, the crocodile and Santa with the full beard!
