It's Stitching Time 2016

     2016 has come to California with a bang.  We actually have had rain and a tornado warning.  A bit scary for those of us who have never had to deal with tornadoes.

     For those of you who visited the shop you know that we have shop dogs.  You could be greeted by Rusty, Reba, Saber or Bella.  (Bella is the noisy one and the littlest.)  Well I was blessed with 6 new puppies on December 5th.  You will not be seeing them at the shop but when we have placed them in appropriate homes you will get to meet the one or ones that I decide I can't live without.  Here is a quick little video that was taken last night.


     The class page of the web site has been updated with out upcoming offerings.  So make sure you check out what is available to you.  It is fun to learn new stitches and techniques.  We are introducing a beading class so you can expand you horizons. 

     The newest Needlepoint Now magazine is the store.  As par for the course, it is full of very interesting articles and new projects.  

     Between the holidays and the puppies I haven't been doing much stitching  but here is a picture of a sampler that I have been trying to complete.  This is only the bottom left corner.


So all I have left to do is the border and that is a little over half way done.  

     Well I am off to see what other trouble I can get into for now,  

                                                                          Happy Stitching,
