Our Members Share

BarbB, NancyH, PatL, CindyL, & CherylM took a week-end class sponsored by Tomorrow’s Heirlooms Needlework.

This was a Shepherd's Bush class. Teri & Tina designed a rather large sampler & a cute pincushion for the event.

More pictures can be found on the Bush Blog; Cindy's Blog, Random Stitching Ramblings; and Coni's Blog Spinster Stitcher.


Thx PatL for sharing your photo! Can hardly wait to see the needlework : )

For those stitching, or thinking to stitch the Blackbird sampler, Petites Lettres Rouges, remember to send in your photo by April 27th.

If you are trying to decide what fibers to use, there are a couple on-line resources that might be helpful.
DMC Color Card and DMC Descriptions of Color Families
Digital Color Card for Anchor floss

TIP: For those of you new to blogging, there are links in the sentences which take you directly to on-line web sites, blogs, etc. When you see different color print (on this blog it is bronze) - put your mouse arrow on the lettering & click.
