Tanja Berlin's e-newsletter has a new product listed I've not seen before--a brass stiletto that can be used as a laying tool or awl. It's a pretty thing (although in CH brass tarnishes badly if not lacquered) and can also be used as a laying tool. If you are interested, hurry. Tanja will be away most of the month of June starting on the 5th.

Amy Talks Books, Guides and More
Amy Bunger's shop newsletter for June and July 2014 is now up on her website.
http://www.amybunger.com/f/0614.pdf
Amy's gone nuts for three ring binders. When you read her mini book reviews, you'll see why. She also reveals that Sparky (the semi-metallic version of Silken Straw) will be available at the January 2015 trade show. Silken Straw is a repackaged knitting yarn and so is the new Sparky. If you have a big project and a very good knitting shop nearly (or a LOT of stitching friends you can share with), see if you can find Alchemy's yarns before Sparky debuts.
The newsletter also contains the whimsical backstory for several new Annie Lane canvases, courtesy of Cindy McKown, and a new stitch diagram, created by Amy just for us. The newsletter has new stitch guides, too.
All in all, a fun way to spend Monday morning!

Russian Santas: Stitch Guide News!

| Carolyn Taggart's Little Angel Santa |

Vicky DeAngelis is working on her Holly Hills Santa. She's been wrestling with just the right thread, but she's making progress despite being the busiest stitcher on the planet.

Carolyn Taggart has also been busy. She just finished her version of the Little Angel Santa (seen above). You can connect with Carolyn via her Facebook page to order. If you aren't on Facebook, just send me an email at chilly hollow at hotmaildotcom and I'll pass your message along to Carolyn.
There's a Russian Santa for everyone, and guides for many of them. Have fun choosing!
