I have started these monthly little canvases from The Artists Collection.  I just love them.  They are a great study in borders.  We are going to have them hanging from a finial of a lamp that is just inside the front door of the shop.  The turkey and the heart are finished.  I will finish the acorns this weekend and the next one is an egg for Easter.
Diane, goes to a stitching retreat every year and this year she stitched this flag on 40 ct. linen.  She didn't even use a magnifier!


Diane stitched this foldable ort box with interlock canvas.  This would be a great stash buster.  This popular project was an ANG exclusive pattern designed by Marilyn Owen.



This cutie is just one of Karen's current projects.  She tried the Gathering Stitch for the first time but used silk  ribbon and it is fabulous!  The background is going to be stitched in Gloriana and I cannot wait to see what she does.
