LISA KRAUSE & FRIENDS

If you haven't had time to look, there is a new slide show on the site with Lisa Krause's frames & accompanying canvases.  They are included in the 20% off sale.  Lisa does frames for any of the Maggie or Ewe & Eye canvases.  You can view them on her web site at www.deuxbijouxbijoux.com.   I can order any of them.  As they are ordered, I will list them in the "canvas-frames" category on the web site.

Happy New Year.

SALE, SALE, SALE

Christmas day is history.  My dinner included my 92 year old father & 90 year old mother.  Every year we play the "this one may be the last one" game but, it never is.  I am so lucky to still have them!!!  The entire family will gather in two weeks in Palos Verdes, CA for Mom's 91st birthday.

Needlepoint Tool Time is having a 20% off everything sale in order to make room for the shopping extravaganza at TNNA.  www.needlepointtooltime.com.

I will make time for some stitching today.  I am taking the Nancy Cucci Amazing Grays class the weekend before TNNA.  There is a lot of pre work outlining.  Counted work is not my thing.  I've used counting pins & have basted and still I'm off!  I'm using those words that I learned from Jane.

Have a happy week.

LAST OF THE NEEDLEPOINT CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

I started the collection of needlepoint Santa's for my husband years ago.
He eventually went by the wayside but was gracious enough to let me keep the Santa's.
I did eventually give him his stocking and all the ornaments with his name on them.
It was just too much pressure to find a boy friend or a second husband named Mike.
I went through a brief Angel period.

NEEDLEPOINT CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS

I have over 100 needlepoint Christmas ornaments.
Does that make me an addict?
