Book of the week

bitchin' stitchin'...
oh yes people its a hip hip hooray kind of day because another Amazon delivery has arrived in the backyard in no less than a US postal service mailbag, which is so amazingly cool and Newmanesque we'll have find some king of crafty use for it in the not too distant future.
However, in the meantime it's all about silver threads and golden needles for finally we have a copy of the ever fabulous Jenny Hart's Sublime Stitching in our hot little hands . We especially love a spiral bound craft book - they just scream sensible, easy to finish project idea. Thankfully this is no exception - easy on the rhetoric and heavy on the stitch learnin' - just the way we like it.
The generous Ms Hart (that's her above working those crewel hardened callouses) and her publishers even provide hundreds of easy iron on transfers as part of the package - excellent for both beginner and the more accomplished among us that might be having trouble coming up with that special something for theose difficult to craft for members of the family...
With that in mind we thought these music inspired ties would be especially appropriate for both the twang crazy historian and the in-house dj... and lets face it's the closest either of them is gonna get to a Nudie Suit this Christmas...
