Colorful Orna

Orna Willis is back from teaching at the ANG Seminar.  Check out the wonderful photographs of her classes and students!   She is a master of color and it looks to me she has taught her students a lot.

Finishing Friday: How Does She Find the Time?!

Stephanie shows off KH's  finishing --check out the Bargello tomato!-- and then tells us KH has a family and a full time job.  I think I might hate KH, when I'm not admiring her work, that is.

By the way, Pocket Full of Stitches and Ridgewood Needlepoint are showing off models from their trunk shows.  The variety of finishing and designs they show is terrific!

Painted Dots on a Grid

Ehrman has a new Raymond Honeyman design out called "Pink Tulips" and to celebrate, Erhman Designs has done another video interview with Mr. Honeyman which is on their website.

You can see all the Honeymans in the current Ehrman catalogue here.  There are more, but Erhman takes kits out of circulation and then adds them back again later to keep their mix of designs fresh and  their inventory under control.

If you haven't seen the first Honeyman video or want to see interviews with other Ehrman designers, check the bottom of the page at the first link above.  There is also a brief bio of Mr. Honeyman at this link.
