Late May 2025 Newsletter from NJNA

NJNA has posted their late May 2025 e-newsletter.  

https://blog.njneedleartists.org/2025/05/31/whats-happening-at-njna-5-31-25/

As usual --since this is an ANG chapter-- it is full of American Needlepoint Guild news, but it also covers new designs and products like Lee's new colors of self-finishing tissue boxes, a retreat on Nantucket, Penny Linn's collaboration with Mackenzie Childs, and of course the fun "needle garage" project from Kam Wenzloff kitted with Colour Complements threads.  There's a bonus tip for stitching with Neon Rays, too!

Bunny Love: The Summer 2025 Mystery

The Summer 2025 mystery class at Bedecked and Beadazzled is "Bunny Love" from Lane Tree and Lily.

https://bedeckedandbeadazzled.com/2025/04/bunny-dog/

There will be two class sessions, one the end of July and the other the second week of August.  As always, I'll update this article with Ruth's progress photos.  Here's the first.  The bunny's face is starting to come alive, he has padded ears--and he has a bird friend!

https://bedeckedandbeadazzled.com/2025/07/bunny-love-is-here/

This was a quick stitch, and a very cute one.  Check out the background and his sweet cheeks.  

https://bedeckedandbeadazzled.com/2025/08/all-stitched-and-ready-to-hop/

Now we have three examples of "Bunny Love" finished.  So cool!
