The Smart Cookie Award for July goes to Carolyn who advises a quick trip to the Dollar Store. The steering wheel covers make good covers for your stretcher bars.

Needlepoint for Your Laptop

I just realized that Art Needlepoint (which specializes in fine art printed on needlepoint canvas), has a good many laptop, tablet and eReader covers you can stitch and then assemble yourself.   If finishing isn't your forte', the company will assemble the cover or case for you for an extra charge.

Using the Mighty Bright Magnifer Light

Lisa of BeStitched demonstrates the Might Bright Magnifier light with tips to care for it properly in the link below. The video is a nice way to learn more about this brand of light/magnifier and see if it might work for your stitching next.

The company website has even more information and photographs, in case you are interested.

Important Safety Tip

When I noticed that Diane just bought a cover for her magnifier, it reminded me that a friend just had her magnifier burn a hole in a cushion.   Diane's new cover is from Carol Eix Designs (second link), but you can make one yourself fairly easily or just drape a large handkerchief over the glass when your magnifier isn't in use.
