And so IT Starts....



Winter has come and gone and Easter is just a distant memory.....suddenly school is out and the fun begins...your needlepoint now happens to glance at a calendar...and..says oh crap just five months to Christmas..and only three months till most finishers stop taking pieces that they will get to you for Christmas...as a designer you can feel it coming....the russel of bags of fiber in the distant ....school crests and little ornaments and start to pick up...all at once you are besieged with orders...great if their were ten of you and you were 25.....don't get me wrong, I could be sitting staring blankly at the drawing table just waiting for something to paint...

this is a composite piece I just finished...all the school symbols...the pillow is 14sq on 13st...tricky when the letting is so small in a circle....
