Some real quick house keeping. We have up dated the website with things that are in the shop. Of course, not everything in the shop is on line (I wish), so if you don't find something and are wondering if we have it please call and ask.
Nashville Needlework Market 2016 is quickly approaching. I have to go to Charlotte the week before so on my way home I will be attending the market. If you click on the link above it will take you to the Facebook Page for the Market and you can see some of the exciting new product that will be available.
Here are some of the designers that have contacted us with their designs that will be available at Nashville Needlework Market. I will be updating this blog weekly with new designs as the come into me. Below is what we have received till 2-17-16.
From Lizzie Kate:
K87 Selfie Sampler Kit
When I began thinking of spring (months ago) I was charmed by this gorgeous rose colored linen, so I developed a kit around this "rosy" theme. We've been aiming for a positive, empowering theme for L*K in 2016 (our 20th year!!!), and I saw this perfect saying: "Dear self, today I will shine."This was the perfect sentiment for this "selfie" project.
Selfie Sampler Kit includes gorgeous 32 ct. red pear linen from WDW, rosy beads, "Made with Love" silver charm and mother-of-pearl button. We're including 2 different stitching options, so you can choose your favorite shape. We couldn't decide, so we'll let you make the choice. The linen provided will work with either design shape. There's also a bitty BONUS design. We rolled our BONUS into a darling little weenie, but it will also make a sweet fob. However you do the BONUS, we're including the silver "Made with Love" charm to embellish, and you furnish a bit of fabric from your stash. Now you can have a "selfie" in stitches...notjust on your camera phone!
K88 Love Summer Limited Edition Kit
Following in the footsteps of Very Merry Santa, and Hello Spring, we're continuing our little "purse" series. Love Summer includes our favorite summer-y motifs, including our first L*K mermaid. She's holding a golden shell charm. Kit includes 30 ct. Lambswool linen, classic bandana finishing fabric, twine handle, and complete finishing instructions. Summer is just around the corner, I hope. Just like our other pocket/purse kits, this one is a Limited Edition.
K89 Red White and Blue Kit
We're in a patriotic mood at L*K in 2016 and we're proud to wave the red, white and blue. Classic sampler motifs combine with classic L*K charm (and a big, wavy flag!) to create a sweet sampler. Kit includes 32 ct. Lambswool linen, iridescent white beads, deep sea houndstooth wool, vintage-look backing fabric, stripe ribbon, mother of pearl round button, twine for cording AND (whew!)complete finishing instructions. Long may she wave!
