Same Old, Same Old

The ANG Seminar is once again scheduled during Yom Kippur.  This is a constant problem ANG has since they have to choose from a limited selection of hotel openings that are during less desirable dates.  This year they are making special arrangements with local synagogues but I'd love to see them move Seminar to another season so everyone can go.

The real problem is -- when would that be?  Remember, they can't afford hotels during the High Seasons.

Wanna See Some Killer Needlepoint?

Of course you do!  Remember my Cape Cod Dogs project?

Stitch Boutique in Boston has had someone else stitch this Elizabeth Mumford piece.  My version is on a red purse while their stitcher created a pillow.

While talking Boston, the same shop posted a wonderful custom Christmas stocking of Fenway Park.  Sure hope my husband doesn't spot this or I'll be stitching it for sure!

Here is Mary's Laurel Burch cat piece, done in a Brenda Hart class or two.  Mary's a dynamite stitcher, with perfect technique, and this is just terrific.

Liz finished her Christmas Caper piece.  This is a Charley Harper canvas and it cracks me up.  Best stitching of thieves ever!

Her little Christmas ornaments turned out wonderfully, too.

Want to stitch something totally different?  You'll love seeing the hip belt models Nimble Needle just posted.  These colorful beauties are all from Colors of Praise.
