The Perpetual Calendar (Love You More)

The most unusual thing I saw in all the new Destination Dallas treats coming out this fall was this perpetual calendar set from Love You More.  Use the side arrows to see more months.

The double frames can be hung with the stitching on top, bottom or to the side, depending on your home's wall space layout.  Four colored mats come with the frame, plus there are a set of twelve calendar sheets (more will be released in following years), and twelve canvases, each with a stitch guide.  If you are an obsessed stitcher who is running out of places to display your work, this might be just the thing.  It would also be a stunning wedding or house-warming present, particularly if the recipient stitches.

BB Needlepoint Ruches Kreinik Ribbon

Sally Baer of BB Needlepoint demonstrated how to ruche Kreinik ribbon (she used the holographic gold) to make flower centers for a stocking from her line.  Doesn't get any easier or prettier than this!
