Breaking News: Leigh Designs Becomes Part of Fleur de Paris

Leigh Designs has just announced a change of ownership. The company (along with the Ashland Sky bags) will be part of the Fleur de Paris Corporation starting September 1.  Orders will go through Fleur de Paris but Leigh herself will still be designing.  It's just she's leaving all the paperwork to Fleur de Paris now.

Here's to the new owners and the old ones, too.  Things change but needlepoint still rules!

The Stitchin' Stuff Makeover

I just discovered that Joan Thomasson has updated her website!  Joan is known for her angels and for her complex teaching pieces.  Let's start with her Shop section where you can buy kits of her designs which include stitch guides.  She doesn't just do angels.  There are charming Santas, a great Twelve Days of Christmas series, and many (but not all) of her big class projects.  Don't miss her Blog to read about some of her current classes and classic angels.

I own many of Joan's angels.  I need to pull some of these out and stitch them.  I also have my eyes on her White House Christmas stocking….

Sigh.  Need more hours in the day.
