American Needlepoint Guild News

ANG has posted the final step on the 2010 Stitch of the Month project on their website.

There is also a page with the final product in various colors on their website.

If you are a member of the ANG Yahoo Groups site, you can see more versions underway in the Photo Section of the site. Here's the home page where you sign up to become a member of the group.

In other ANG news, the group has started selling instructions for peyote beading a small amulet bag.  When this topic appeared on the ANG email list, I didn't realize at first that this wasn't a class, and I still have questions.  Is this suitable for beginners?  Do the website instructions explain how to add the chain to make this a necklace?  Do you put your initials on the back side?  I don't have any of the answers to these questions but this is a good price for a project for those who know peyote beading already.
