To see more of their offerings (and to be far, some of the antique chairs are lovely), use search. It's fun to explore all the offerings, from tennis racket covers to tote bags, pillows and slippers, rugs and furniture.

Lycette's Wish List for Santa
Lycette Designs is like the rest of us, she has a wish list for Christmas Goodies.
http://lycettedesigns.com/holiday-wishlist/
Jessica got me thinking—what's on MY list of needlepoint desires? Here they are, in no particular order—
Machelle Somerville's "Light Candles" which I think would make a magnificent Christmas serving tray.

Vicki Sawyer's "Heron Royalty" is gorgeous. This would make a great piece for my husband who adores blue herons.

"Chilly Christmas" is a Mary Engelbreit/Painted Pony design that looks a lot like my niece. I just love it!

I've always loved Kelly Clark's Halloweenies. Which one to buy? Should it be the mummy? Or The Grimm (page 22 of second link below).

And naturally I might need a Dazor….

Have fun assembling your list of goodies for Santa!

Spending Time with a Master of Embellishment
Since it is Thanksgiving, I thought we might have a little extra time to spend over at Susan Portra's website while everyone else eats themselves silly and watches parades and football games. Just click on the date to see each featured canvas. Many have stitch diagrams but they all are full of fabulous ideas! Plaid entirely in beads?! Who'd a thunk it! That Susan is a genius.

There are other things to see but nothing beats studying with a master of canvas embellishment.
NOTE: I have no idea why this published two weeks after it was suppose to. Mysteries of the Computer strike again!
