To really appreciate the magic that Ruth stitched, you need to look at the bare canvas before she set her needle to work. This is Ruth's latest mystery class and you can sign up long distance still if you wish. You'll know how the mystery turns out, but when did that ever stop us from reading a really good book?

Kreinik's History Lesson
This morning's link is to a posting that Kreinik made on Mr. X Stitch's site. Although it uses Kreinik products to illustrate the article (and promote said products), the points made are valid and interesting. Enjoy the read and follow a few links to see some examples of historic silk and metal embroidery.
