Sip and Snip

Twisted Stitches Needlepoint in Albuquerque, New Mexico has a gadget I've not seen before--a holder for both coffee and orts that clamps to a table.  Very clever!

dede Purses

While browsing the Twisted Stitches shop website yesterday, I stumbled across this dede Odgen purse, something I've not seen before.  The purse is leather, appears to be a clutch style, and comes with the chart to create the pattern shown.  You have to supply the threads and canvas to stitch it, though.  I'm assuming this is self-finishing but the shop can tell you for certain.

A Visit to Twisted Stitches Needlepoint

Beth recently visited Twisted Stitches Needlepoint in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I've heard nothing but rave reviews of the shop.  Peter Ashe lives in the area and they have an outstanding range of his designs as well as a huge number of thread brands.  If you want to visit their website, here it is--

A Source for Lois Kershner Kits

I just realized Twisted Stitches in Albuquerque carries some of Lois Kershner's kits.

Lois is now retired from teaching but you can see more of her work here--

These are line-drawn and I think some of the backgrounds are lightly colored,  You'll have to supply threads but I'm told the shop carries a HUGE range of threads so they can probably kit these for you.

Peter Ashe News

Good news for all of Peter Ashe's fans! He's partnering with Twisted Stitches in Albuquerque to sell his canvases!  You can see Peter's amazing designs on his website.

Twisted Stitches will sell Peter's work directly to customers and also represents him as wholesaler if you are a shop looking to add some of his designs to your inventory.  I'm told that he is also amenable to doing custom work, so contact Twisted Stitches if there's something you've always wanted in his lovely style.
