The Belt Maker

Somewhere in my wanderings on the World Wide Web I stumbled across a recommendation for this leather worker who specializes in finishing needlepoint handbags and belts.   Don't miss the photo gallery of custom handbags!  They are stunning.

The Nimble Needle Atlanta's May Newsletter

What fun! The Nimble Needle in Atlanta has their May newsletter available and it is full of eye candy! There's a bit about their favorite designer and new book from Market, lovely photos from their IC snowman club for 2014, reports from their recent classes, and some wonderful photographs of their recent finishing.  This is a treat for all.
