Magnetic Notes

Sue Reed handed out Magnetic Notes in her class at the ANG Seminar in Myrtle Beach so that folks could cover up areas of their charts they weren't working on.  I thought my counted friends would like to know about such an interesting product.

Mary Beale's Boston Tea Cozy

Those who love history or traditional designs or just Boston will want to see the New England style tea cozy design that the ANG Flower City Needlers posted about on their blog.

Follow the links to pick up the chart to stitch your own tea cozy or just see more photographs.  It's the perfect thing to enjoy the first of November!

Here's a Halloween Treat for You


This makes a wonderful all over background, a neat border or even just a stripe down an area of your spooky canvas.

Enjoy!

Boo to You (SJ Designs) UPDATED

Susan Johnson of SJ Designs posted a free Halloween ornament for stitchers to create on her website.  It's called the "Boo to You" ornament and looks to be a fun and fast stash buster to stitch on Halloween.  It's meant to be totally beaded but there is no reason you can't pull colors of threads from your stash and follow the chart in tent stitches.

UPDATE:  Susan has reposted last year's "Very Very Merry" chart, just in case folks missed it.

Eyeballs

Was it Shakespeare's three witches who talked about "eye of newt and toe of frog?"  Do you think he was thinking about the Zecca retreat at Bedecked and Beadazzled?
