The American Needlepoint Guild's revamped website is now live. A lot of things are still missing, like most of the Stitch of the Month postings and the FAQ page which had lots of useful information, but the 2017 Stitch of the Month is there (hidden under Distance Learning). I am hoping their FAQ page reappears shortly as I refer folks to it constantly. The URL is the same.

Here is the direct link to the Stitch of the Month for 2017. Note that all the information was posted at once so it is very hard to tell what is the earlier and latest lessons. I finally figured out that the latest was at the bottom, not the top as had been done for years. ANG says that prior SOTM information will be added to the website at some point. I am hoping this is done quickly as that is also information I refer people to all the time.

Don't you think it's odd that ANG doesn't seem to realize how popular SOTM is, and how much traffic it brings to the page? I was flabbergasted to see it missing from the website and even more so to hear that it is not a priority for them to bring it back. I really really regret not printing off those prior years now!
They plan to add prior years as they are able. I think the first priority now is to get the online Seminar registration working. Once they are through that hurdle, I plan to pressure them to upload the SOTM for prior years and then to restore the FAQ page and the ANG archives. All these things are very valuable resources and there is no excuse not to have them available.
