UPDATE: Ruth has posted about her latest stitch guide, the Swirls of Snow Snowman, on her blog just this morning. This is a great service for stitch guide customers. To be absolutely sure of your costs and to be certain who wrote the guide, email the shop for help. Please note that the prices are sometimes for the canvas and stitch guide both, and sometimes the stitch guide is sold separately. After all, Santa is coming and he might need to know about one of these guides. This is perfect for those who are looking for a stitch guide! Many of these guides are for Ruth's own canvases or those she distributes so they may be harder to find elsewhere, which means we'd all better bookmark this page. The top of the new section has the latest releases while the bottom half has all our old favorites.

Their website makeover has gone live and the shop now has a Stitch Guide section. The November shop newsletter for Bedecked and Beadazzled is up on their website, with big news! I believe they are open in the afternoons except for Sunday but they don't have a website so I am not certain. The shop is in Santa Clara, CA and their phone number is 661/286-1248. This was a class that Sherry taught for them. If you are interested in Sherry's stitch guide, talk to Queen Anne Stitches Needlepoint via their Facebook page of the exact same name. Just be sure you know what you are getting before you buy, ok? I've been told that class materials sold as stitch guides later don't allow access to the videos that class members get to help them with unusual stitches. If you are interested, email him at the address listed.īeStitched has done classes for both Pocito and Belleza so you might be able to buy class materials from them, but ask if everything needed to stitch the canvases their way is included in the guide. Tony Minieri has done guides for Pocito and Belleza. One Day of the Dead lady canvas is so new she's not on the website yet but you can see her on Tapestry Fair's blog. (If the piece looks familiar, I am stitching Pocito's sister Belleza.) You can see Manuel's artwork translated onto needlepoint canvas at the Tapestry Fair website.
#MACSTITCH CONSOLIDATE DUPLICATE THREADS FULL#
Sherry choose to work Pocito, whose full name translates to a Little Bit of Color. Sherry Bray has finished her version of one of Manuel Salas' Day of the Dead ladies and the stitch guide is now available. Sherry Bray's Pocito Finished But Unframed Edwardian Needle's hours are Wednesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. However you try to reach Tony, remember he is on the road a lot so you may not get an answer right away. Minieri, take note of the Needle Deeva canvas numbers and email him or call Edwardian Needle at (973) 743-9833, which is his home shop and leave a message for him. If you are a Tony fan or just want to stretch your skills, these stitch guides are something to consider. Vicky DeAngelis is stitching it beautifully and showed it off on her blog as well as another Tony Minieri stitch guide for another Needle Deeva canvas, this time a vase of flowers. Instead, you have a garden with a black cat lurking. The final stitch guides are by Tony Minieri for Needle Deeva again. When Michele finishes stitching, you will be able to buy the stitch guide as part of the thread kit for the design from her shop. I don't know about you, but my parents had similar ornaments on their tree each year, so this one has a special nostalgic pull. Michele at the Bristly Thistle is stitching this gorgeous Alice Peterson design featuring traditional glass Christmas tree ornaments. Since monthly clubs and stitch guides are merging, I thought I would mention this here. Some shops carry extra copies of the magazine if you are curious. Two characters also will be featured in the December 2012 issue of Needlepoint Now magazine, which is beginning to be mailed to subscribers. This will be a club offered to multiple shops by Needle Deeva. Vicky DeAngelis has finished the First Thanksgiving set. A whole slew of new stitch guides have been announced, so I thought I'd do a quick roundup.
