I just thought that you bloggers might like a sneak peak at the catalogs we send to shops.....these catalogs have been very well received by shops and in turn their customers.. You all have heard of "stitch and bitch" Well how about a browse and bitch session with a squiggee catalog in your lap?..the catalogs are hard bound notebooks that are easily updated and added too...there is also a section on custom designs ....all the pages are in plastic sleaves ,so sticky fingers are not a problem, and this also makes it easy to change /replace pages and update as new designs become available....our first catalogs were white...but we have been lucky to find this nice bright HOT PINK...Squiggee's signature color...lol the catalog also has a brief autobiography of me...lol..not as dull as watching paint dry, brief is the prime aim...I do hate artists that go on and on...I have always felt that my work tells you much more about who I am...OMG...Carmen Flamingo...Bitchy Witchy Frog..scary ! more details for shops about how to obtain a catalog on our website http://www.squiggeedesigns.com/ the whole catalog is always on view on the website for the public to browse....the catalogs are only available to retail shops. But they are just as much fun to browse through as a Squigge canvas is to work.
I am a working artist. I have been designing needlepoint since 1972,when after graduating college , I took an apprenticeship at American Needlework Center in Georgetown, DC. I found my calling and have never looked back.I have designed for the Washington Cathedral and the White House and continue a large custom business . In 2000 I started to design for wholesale under the name BY GAIL .In 2004 Squiggee designs was born and introduced on eBay. These designs appeal to me, just fun! Squiggee opened up the world embellishments to me. I have been married to a very wonderful master cabinet and furniture designer going on 37 years.He is the only man that has not bored me.He has a wicked sense of humor and a loving nature,we are well matched.Since his early retirement in 2008, he joined the Squiggee Family , managing the office and he is our link to the shops. He has become such an intracranial part of the day to day running of Squiggee Designs , that shops refer to him as " Mr. Squiggee". We have a Chi-weenie named Twinkle , a mix of Doxie and Chihuahua and her older brother, a six year old black miniature poodle named Omar , who sports with a small white goatee.
