New Finishing Book (and Classes) UPDATE

Thanks to some help from Mary Agnes on Facebook, I discovered that The Binding Stitch has a new finishing book out.   I have not seen it but their very expensive video series on finishing was very popular.  The six volume set is still available in DVD format, by the way.  Marcia Brown also offers online finishing courses.  If anyone on the Cape can tell us about any of these, I'd love to know more!

Thanks, MA!  You are The BEST.

UPDATE:  The book is available through Amazon.  Janet Perry has done a review of the book on the site.

Callaway for 2015

Oh, boy! Callaway Garden's School of Needle Arts has posted their 2015 class schedule!

I absolutely love Joan Thomasson's Peace Angel but there is a lot to see and enjoy here.  Betsy Morgan's teaching (love her counted sampler smalls!) and Marnie Ritter is going to be there.  And who would want to miss a class with Carole Lake and Michael Boren?    The Japanese Embroidery designs and silk metal work from Kay Stanis are outstanding as well.  

What's your favorite?
