Breaking News: Needle in A Haystack Needs New Owner UPDATE

Thanks to Pat's sharp eyes, I have discovered that the owner of Needle in a Haystack in Montrose, California wants to sell her shop and retire. You can read a bit about Jody and her shop here.

The shop website is here.  It's a charmer, with a wide range of canvases for sale.  I do so hope the shop finds a special fourth owner!

UPDATE:  Remember, there are plenty of shops with the same name.  The shop that is closing is in Montrose, CA.

Threadaholic Alert: Artfabrik Threads

Mary Corbet has done it again--she is tempting us with photos and links to a line of overdyed perle cotton threads from Artfabrik. These come in sizes 3, 5, 8 and 12, which means you can use this on any size needlepoint canvas or mix thread sizes for a special effect (light coverage in the background, normal coverage for a focal point, etc.).

Scroll down to see the colors.  No drooling on your keyboard!

Five enabling points to Mary....
