Victorian Carolers for Dr. Donn

When I saw Stephanie's set of Victorian caroling stand up figures form Heartstrings, I thought of a friend who sort of would like to stitch such a set. This is for you, Donn!   Merry Christnas!

Friday Finishing: The Classics

Nobody knows classic designs and classic finishing like Needle Nicely. Their monogram pillow from Patti Mann is lovely now and will be lovely in twenty years, too.  Some things never go out of style.

Enriched Stitch has a little bit of everything to show off.  Many of these items are from their fabulous classes.

Nothing is more classic than a custom needlepoint belt.

Or a basketweave pillow with awesome trim.
