Recently, I read about a new gadget called the Parking Spot. I received one in the mail this week and we have all been thrilled with it. It's is a device that can hold a laying tool (including non-metallic ones) or a pencil etc. We loved it so much that we immediately ordered the tool and it arrived just in time for Mother's Day. It costs $20 so it is the perfect item to suggest to family members with limited budgets wanting to know what you want for Mother's Day. We also have some beaded threaders that are fun. Another great gift is one or two chapters of Amy Bunger's Cookbook for Stitchers. A big spender could get you one of her DVDs.
Are you intrigued with the canvas it's on? Gretchen is going to teach a short beading class this summer. We are working up dates and prices so keep your eyes out for the announcement.
I've finally managed to snag the DVD player and watched two of Amy's "How'd You Do That?" series. I thought they were great. I'm looking forward to watching more.
