Two New Coco Frank Stitch Guides (Matilda Square and Shells & Cherries)

Coco Frank has published two more free mini stitch guides on her website.  One is for Matilda Square...

...and the other is for Shells & Cherries.

Note that Matilda Square's guide is just a listing of fibers.  It is meant to be done in all tent stitches because of the constant color changes. 

I don't know who wrote the guide for Shells & Cherries.  It may be Coco herself.  Shells & Cherries's guide is not very elaborate, so it is good for beginners or those just dipping a toe into needlepoint embellishment.  

Boo House (Plum Stitchery and Pam Lemire)

Pam Lemire has written an adorable stitch guide for Plum Stitchery's "Boo House."

Peacock (Amanda Lawford and Tony Minieri)

Linda's Amanda Lawford peacock is back from the framer and it looks grand.  This design can be ordered from VGN if your favorite shop doesn't have it in stock.  The stitch guide is by Tony Minieri.

Free Merry Stitch Guide (Moo Moo Designs and Jinny McAuliffe)

KC Needlepoint is sponsoring a free stitch-along for Moo Moo Designs' "Merry" Christmas ornament.  You can order the canvas from the shop and then use the free guide by Jinny McAuliffe or perhaps you can use some of Jinny's ideas on another canvas.
