The Stitcher's Diary for 2023 from Reflets de Soie Isabelle has sent a lovely calendar/planner for 2023 that features color pictures of antique samplers in her personal collection that she says 'haven't been published yet!' So, along with her preview of designs coming... this offers the monthly calendar pages, and several pages at the end to log special projects, and your needlework-related notes! You can see from my pics that this book can hang like a traditional wall calendar if you like, but I think it'd be really happy stuffed into your daily stitch tote to help keep you organized! I have some of the inside pictures when you click through the images. Isabelle printed a sticker-sheet of tiny vintage images - so you can decorate your pages and dates a little. This would make a lovely stitcher-friend gift - but get one for YOU too! | |
 2023 Book of Days from Needlework Press The 2023 daily planner should be here any day! A pic of the cover here, this is a 9 x 12 booklet that opens to display each month across two pages. Decorated with antique sampler motifs and verses... it's meant to be your *Stitching Planner and Diary* for the year! Plenty of room to log stitching hours, stitch group get-togethers, special events and retreats... anything about your stitching that you want to remember. It's a wonderful place for photos of what you have done, and all the addresses and contacts of your stitching friends! | |
 Both the Annual Halloween and Christmas Issues of Just Cross Stitch Magazine are here! Halloween has 55 designs, Christmas has 70. You may not like absolutely everything in both of them... but there is A LOT to enjoy!

 Stitch People Books Wow, this is a really neat set of 7 books that between them all, offer you literally thousands of different motifs to customize your own stitching project. We're showing you one of them here... click through to see the rest... it's definitely worth it!

 200+ Fun & Funky Embroidery Transfers This is a publication by Leisure Arts that contains over 200 Iron-On-Transfers for regular embroidery -- the kind you do on pillow cases and dish towels.

Mix and match them all to decorate denim, T-shirts, bags... just anything! | |
 Modern Folk Embroidery I stumbled across this book that features 30 contemporary projects for Folk Art inspired designs -- all done in traditional embroidery stitches!

The book has 125 pages of stitch diagrams, patterns and pictures of 30 different projects that are so NOW and CUTE! Bags, dolls, pillows, ornaments... you can finish everything in here any way you want! Browse through it, choose a project, the instructions are very good.

Christkindl from Rico Designs64 pages of a full tiered tiny tree, rocking horses and gingerbread cookies, The Three Wisemen, CHARMING angels, , NUTCRACKERS (very hard to find!) and even a Merry-Go-Round! I have a set of tiny wooden angel ornaments that are all playing musical instruments -- I've had them for almost 40 years... and I'm sure these charts are of THOSE angels -- because they are wooden ornaments from Germany -- where these books are published! Just lovely!!!!!! | |
Christmassy Messengers from Rico Designs40 Pages. Darling little folk art angel people, snowmen, a trio of really pretty stylized evergreen topiary trees, monochromatic reindeer and checks -- inspired by coverlet designs -- and little Santa-people, as well. So much red, taupe and cream color -- wait till you see the finishing ideas and the photos on the pages! | |
Wintermarchen from Rico DesignsA darling skinny Santa in here... lots of taupe reindeer, some little chicks with striped stocking caps, and more taupe-colored skaters... there is a tree pattern in here that is stunning! It is simply small circles and snowflakes all tucked into a curvy tree shape -- very contemporary and sleek -- stunning! 40 Pages. | |
Frohe Weihnachten from Rico Designs44 pages of cute stuff!!! This one has tiny ball ornaments and wrapped gifts, pine greenery, a row of solid pines, super-stylized reindeer, gorgeous flowing holly with partridges, even a silhouette of Santa and the reindeer in the sky.

Making Christmas Stocking Selections? Don't miss seeing the entire collections of several different designer's talents! Christmas Stockings are an individual thing! Some want all in the family to match... some want different designs to 'match the person'... Check out our Stocking Page for lots of options!!! | |
Knots, Fur and Turkey Work A brand new book by Meredith Bamhill Willett and Beth Robertson, this is a beautiful publication printed on super-glossy paper and stuffed full of awesome, clear, pretty and current pics! The book delves into textured stitches that are used on canvas and linen. 28 Pages of fabulous, creative applications for both threads and stitches... I'd never heard of Faux and Cork-Screw Bullions, Sorbello Stitches, and Detached Woven Picots -- and when you see the up-close pics of what the different threads do for the stitches -- you'll be amazed! The color pictures of thread and stitch applications are all fresh, 2005-ish projects -- I hate to open stitch books that show projects that look like they're 25 years old. These are fresh, current applications, with current threads. For instance, I know that Flair by Rainbow Gallery ravels like the dickens. This book shows an application for hair that features that raveled fiber!!! You can even shade it! (Who knew!?) Very, very nicely done! |
