Revisiting the Casbah

Terry Dryden has decided to rework an older design of hers called "Casbah."  She's added a lovely wide border, switched the colors, and is using totally different threads.  Fans of counted canvaswork will be thrilled to see her new work and fans of lovely color combos will be interested, too.  Let's hope this comes to a seminar near us soon!

Finishing Friday: Roses in Bloom

BeStitched proves with this very dimensional and embellished Melissa Shirley "Spring Bouquet" canvas made into a pillow that we don't just have to frame such pieces!  (Of course if you have pets or small kids on your couch or bed, you may have to keep this under lock and key for a few years.)

Lousie's has a colorful bob white (quail) canvas made up into a lovely pillow.   I really like the primitive feel of the design.  It just makes me happy.
