Don’t Miss a Thing!
 
September was a crazy month at The Enriched Stitch.  Mary Susan, Aggie and I traveled to Dallas for the Destination Dallas trade show.  We found so many great new canvases, bags, tools and other goodies.
The big news last month was that I bought Amanda Lawford/DC Designs!  I’ve been sorting through and replenishing the inventory and making sense of this massive design line.  Things are finally under control and I can come up for air.  For now  . . .LOL!
I have a lot of plans for these designs.  Some of those ideas will come to fruition at the January show.  Can you believe I’m already thinking about January?  The life of a needlepoint designer and stitcher!
I’m working on getting Amanda’s website updated with the new designs, but here they are!

World Traveler Santa

available in 30″ on 18 or 13 mesh and 20″ on 18 mesh
 


 
 
World Peace – available on 13 or 18 mesh

This is her last design. How appropriate!
