Off to TNNA Market

It's been a fun day kitting everything up for the TNNA market.  The problem with teaching 3 classes is that's a lot of kits. I'll be doing Jolly for Princess and Me; Snow Night for Melissa Prince Designs and the December Baby Cakes for Rebecca Wood.

Jolly

Snowy Night

Baby Cakes - Christmas

I've been busy finishing up the stitch guide for Melissa Shirley's 866 - 12 Days of Christmas Angels stitch guides.  Can't decide what angels is my favorite.  Maybe 3 French Hens.  The idea was to have the paint on the skirts show through to provide shading.

I'm busy working on another set of canvases for Melissa I'll post more later.















I sent off a Christmas stocking stitch guide for Elizabeth Turner Collection, so I'm interested in talking to Meredith at market and see what she though.

Shelly Tribbey tells me that the skeleton canvas made up into a really cute pillow.  I can't wait to see it at market, she has the greatest finisher.  The beading on the skulls on the outside took over 1 night each but they were well worth it.  I guess they made up for how fast the stitching went on the rest of the piece.

Finished proofing the copy for my stitch guides to appear in Needlepoint Now in the July/August issue.  They are Rebecca Wood Baby Cakes.

Well, time to go stitch.
