If Halloween isn't your thing, not to worry.  DAD also creates laying tools, scissors keepers and knitting accessories plus lap frames and beautiful boxes to keep your supplies in, all made in Wisconsin and beautifully finished.

Hiding in My Box (or Under My Ribbon)

With the help of the increditbly talented Susan Portra, Linda has stitched an amazing version of the Eye Candy cat-in-a-box canvas.  I never would have come up with a beaded fish border!

I have another great finishing idea for you--one of Ruth Schmuff's Maggie canvases she used in one of her mystery classes.  It's perfectly finished as a pillow.  There are two versions, by the way.  Check out how the ribbons are perfected attached under a seam!
