We are still getting new arrivals from the January Trade Show.  This would be lots of fun to stitch.  You could really mix it up with different stitches as well as different threads.

Sally's Santa Claus is enjoying the warmer weather as he floats by today on the blog.  This is a darling of an ornament by Princess and Me.

Look how lovely Josephine's ribbon ornament came out.  I am sure it will look fabulous on her Christmas tree next year.

 I don't have the time to take on another project right now, running the store, keeping up with the blog and paying the bills is enough.  But I really hope someone buys this canvas and uses lots of interesting stitches because I am sure it will make a beautiful pillow.  I imagine something very formal however with different threads it could be lovely in a family room too.  PS I don't mean to complain I did just return from a family vacation.

We just got Meredith's stocking back from the finisher and wanted to share it with everyone.  Look at the wonderful beard Santa has.  We realize everyone is always looking for new ideas so to let you know Meredith used Silk & Ivory to get this look.

Easter is around the corner, 

don't be late!!!

Add this three dimensional pillow to any room and it is sure to be a show stopper.

We picked this Hanukah tag up at the Trade Show as well as some other designs from Sew Much Fun - a Canadian based designer and have been quite successful with this piece.

This was the newest Melissa Shirley to hit the ground running.  I love the fall colors and the way the blue just makes it pop.  I can't help but look at this and think texture and a fabulous rustic frame.  

PS And don't forget the roaring fire.

We could not resist this classic Melissa Shirley.

Our Melissa Shirley canvases have started arriving from the Trade Show.

Aren't these wonderful?

Gretchen was busy and thinking summer fun while she stitched up this happy crab.  Again look at her fun fabric selection and trim.

Make time to be creative with your finishing.  Gretchen shopped for this cotton fabric and added a small navy blue pom pom cording around the edge.  Sorry my picture is not a very good one today.  However you can enjoy the bright and colorful canvas.

How adorable are these circus canvases - last year they were an exclusive and this year they have been made available to all shops.  We could not resist picking up a few as they were made as stand ups and were the cutest things - so bright and cheerful.  Lots more designs to choose from: tiger, zebra, muscle man etc.

If you love Americana you will want to have this American Flag.  Gretchen and I could not resist this at the Trade Show.  It will provide plenty of stitching options for any level stitcher.

Check out Nancy's Front Door.  It was designed to match her house.

Start now and you can certainly have these on your mantel for Halloween.  

Think stand ups on a bed of cobwebs.  Awesome right???
