First Charley, Now Eleanor UPDATED

Ruth Schmuff (who is a painted canvases distributor when she isn't being a teacher or a shop owner) has a new designer in her stable--Eleanor Grosch.  These are so new that they aren't even priced on Ruth's website.

Her Just Eleanor line reminds me of Charley Harper.  Ms. Grosch is an illustrator whose non-needlepoint work can be seen here.

UPDATE:  Ruth is going to use one of Eleanor's canvases for a short summer mystery class-featuring this parrot.
