Counted Fun with Carol via Correspondence

The newest ANG correspondence course is now open for registration--Carol Algie Higgenbottom's "Rose Swirls."  The piece teaches a variety of stitches including pulled work stitches, so it is perfect for the intermediate stitcher who wants to stretch their skills.   The class is open to any ANG member.  The details are in the two links below.

Brenda was one of the pilot stitchers for this course and posted great photos of her version.  She added a lovely trellis background so she could frame this in a square frame.

Louise's Plays with Borders

Louise's Needlework is stitching these cute little seasonal pieces from The Artists Collection to decorate the shop interior and to play with the borders.  Clever idea to put these on a lamp filial!
