For those who are about to ask, yes, I made my annual trip to Woodlawn over the weekend.  I'm not sure when I'll have it written up, but stay tuned....

Easter Eggs and Monthly Clubs

Pocket Full of Stitches has gathered the biggest collection of Easter egg canvases on their blog that I've ever seen.  If you think you might want to stitch a spring egg one day, take a gander at this.

Can You Identify The Designer?

Ok, I've got a mystery for you guys.  Can anyone identify the designer of this painted canvas?  Hopefully you don't have to have a Facebook account to see this red foo dog design....

Off to the Beach with Needle Crossings

Needlepoint.com is having a Needle Crossings trunk show.  To get the 20% off discount if you are ordering online, use the code "NC" in your shopping cart.  The canvases are mostly beach-themed canvases.  If you are sick of winter and would like to spend a little time on the sand, you might want to pick up one of these charmers.  Move fast, though.  I don't know how long the trunk show will be available at this shop.

By the way, the March newsletter is up on their website as well.
