Loose Thread Stitchers

We just love the newest release from Brenda Kocher Designs entitled Fancywork.

This Crazy Quilt pattern incorporates not only canvas work stitches but also silk ribbon surface embroidery to create a colorful splash of spring colors. A CD is included with the book that has color photo directions for the silk ribbon embroidery. These same directions are shown in the book with black and white photos. Approximate finished size of the design stitched on 18 count mono canvas is 11” x 12”.

We also LOVE Brenda's Project Bags. Not only can they carry a ton! She donates 100% of the profits to charity! now that's a designer we can get behind!

These beautiful project bags are brand new from Tea Rose Cottage Designs and represent a small sample of the many designs available. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of these bags go to children’s causes in Third World Countries.

Each design is available in limited quantities and come in small (approx. 12” x 15”) medium (approx. 17”x 18”) and large (approx. 21”x 22”…large enough for a 20” bobbin lace pillow!)

Each bag has a coordinated fabric lining with lots of pockets for storing your needlework supplies and patterns. Unique and/or antique buttons are used for the closures.
