Sheena Mixes It Up UPDATED

If you don't follow Sheena's blog, you will want to sign up to get notices when the newest thing goes live.   She always has a wonderful stitch, great photos and a fun attitude so this is a Must Read.  This week's posting is especially great for me since I adore Asian-themed canvases as she features not one but TWO great background stitches for these types of canvases.

I never would have thought to use them both in the background.  They look fabulous!  Thanks, Sheena.

UPDATE:  Sheena adds another Asian-themed design, this time from one of Betty Chen Louis' designs.

Nothing to do with your post today, but I need your help. You posted an April 20, 2015 a picture with a Joan Thomasson ornament. To the left was a stocking with a tabby cat in a knit hat and two cardinals. I would love to know where I can get that canvass.
Thanks,
Claudia

That's a Maggie canvas. I don't know if it is still available, though. There were quite a few in this series, so maybe if you cannot get that one you can find something similar. Find this which is similar—they are Paris Bottman artwork, adapted to NP canvas by Maggie. http://www.maggieco.com/html/detail.php?ID=491&Category=2&pg=17&q=
