Roses in Bloom UPDATED

The finishing on this dimensional rose pillow is wonderful!  I don't know the designer but Ridgewood can probably help you out if your rose garden needs something like this.

UPDATE:  Robin says this is a Sew Much Fun design.  Thanks!

Paprika Pi

Joey Barnes has started a new company called Paprika Pi to make stitching tools that are pretty, different and functional.  They make stitch counting pins, scissors fobs, lanyards, magnets and more.  Custom designs are possible, too.

Because the company is in Texas, one of the best places to see their products is at Needle Works in Austin.  Are you a Tony Minieri student?  Then this scissors fob is for you!

Do you have a special pair of scissors just for cutting metallic threads?  Then you might want this fob that has a scissors point protector shaped like a spool of Kreinik metallic thread.
