Christmas Has Arrived Early This Year (Tony Minieri Stitch Guides)

Yes, Christmas has arrived two days early here in Chilly Hollow--Tony Minieri's website finally has some of his stitch guides available! These are electronic guides (unless you live in countries where Tony has to collect VAT) available instantly after payment. All the details are here.

I expect more guides will be added as Tony has time to make them available. No, I haven't bought any yet. I'm still trying to decide....

If you have and you want to let the rest of us know what the guides are like (some of them are likely quite old), please comment below or email me at chillyhollow at hotmail dot com. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Jingle Bells

Gayle's family tradition at Christmas involves a revolving Christmas tree with a music box playing as it rotates. I thought you'd love to see her needlepoint ornament-covered tree and enjoy the music.
