Petei Introduces New Characters
For the first time in a very long time, Petei has added new characters to her line of book people. Painted Pony is introducing a dozen characters from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to Petei's fans.

These all come with stitch guides by Susan Burris and can be ordered by Painted Pony which is Petei's distributor. Kudos to Painted Pony for talking Petei into coming out of retirement for our stitching pleasure!

Sandra's Skin Colors
I've just discovered that Fleur de Paris sells sets of DMC cotton floss called "Sandra's Skin Colors" that match Sandra Gilmore's skin tones in her painted canvases.

I searched all over the Fleur de Paris website and didn't see any mention of this but I bet your favorite shop can order for you if you have one of the Sandra Gilmore people to stitch, or just stitch lots of faces and am a collector of skin tone threads.
Many thanks to Laura Perin for the tip!
