Enriched Stitch's Russian Santas Club

As reported earlier, Enriched Stitch plans a club using four of Leigh Designs' Russian Santas.  Wait'll you see Holly Hills Santa!  He's marvelous!

This club will start in March and have four Russian Santas.  I think Becki is stitching the original four of the set, by I'm not positive about that.  Stay tuned for more amazing stitching!

Barbara Bergsten, with Frogs, Palms and Whales

Barbara Bergsten has updated her website with the new 2014 designs. They are wonderful! I don't know which I like best, the palm tree, the single frog or the sail boat covered in whales....

And then there's the shell shape covered in sea horses.  Pretty, preppy and pink--that's Barbara!

Stitching Santa

Kimberly is busy stitching her own Santa Claus.   It's very interesting to me that she is also using dimensional elements and icy threads to bring her canvas to life.  It is a very different style of Santa so she is solving the same problems as I am in a different way.

This is one of her new painted canvas designs, available from Bedecked and Beadazzled.  And it looks like another floral is on the way!
