Copyright From A Quilting Lawyer's Perspective

This article on copyright and how it applies in the United States is both clear and very interesting. It talks about sewing and quilting but the law applies to any hand embroidery technique.

Many thanks to Mary Corbet for finding this and posting about it.

Theresa Talks Thread Books

Theresa of Homestead Needle Arts posted a mini review of the new Threads: A Needle Necessity on her website when she listed the book for sale. It's quite interesting and makes me think this is a book I certainly need in my library! Read her comments here.

The Teabag Tray and the Canvas Holder

I've never seen a teabag tray before. Have you?   Besides the weekly stitch diagram, a glimpse at the Brenda Stofft Nativity club piece that is being stitched now, Coleen shows off the painted canvas holder that protects your canvas and stitches while you are on the road.  These can be ordered from Needle Works and are made to order.
