The Thanksgiving finishing deadline is August 29th. So grab your turkey canvases and start stitching, because it's fast approaching!

Stitched by Holly

Vanessa stitched the entire 12 Days of Christmas Pears series, and they just arrived from the finisher yesterday. They're absolutely beautiful, and will look great as a yearly part of her Christmas decorations.

She had them finished so that they could be attached to a garland, or hung as separate ornaments! Here are some pictures of what the individual days look like (and one of her santa ornaments thrown in for fun).

Non-seasonal projects are nice to work on in between holidays because you can pick up right where you left off, and not have to worry about finishing dates! Here are some new juvenile canvases we have in the store. They'd be adorable hanging up in a nursery, or as a gift for a niece, nephew, or grandchild. 

We're so excited to finally have our copies of "got stitches?" by Gone Stitching! This book is so well illustrated and easy to follow. Here are a few sample shots of what the inside looks like.

 You can never have an excess of accessories! We have little beaded keychains, lovely lotion bars, needle minders, and a pile of laying tools in various colors. 

 

I know there have been a ton of accessories posts, but this is going to be the last post about them for a while, I promise! I just love little tchotchkes, and we offer quite a few!

 Let's take a look at what's on the big comfy couch!

 We have a couple bags that you can stitch a canvas for and have it attached. These would make great beach bags or just every day totes. 

 They're beach themed and absolutely adorable. I'm envious of her bathing cap!

Beads, beads, beads!

 We had a customer come in today to purchase the Princess and the Pea canvas, and decided to place one green bead under everything to mimic the pea. What a difference a well placed bead can make! They're great for adding a personal touch, or some additional flair to a canvas that needs some life.

The Raymond Crawford Trunk show is coming to an end. So for this Finishing Friday, we're featuring a completed piece from the trunk show!

How cute is this Christmas train set? It makes me want to put up my Christmas lights again!
