Guides for Rebecca Wood Canvases

Stitch by Stitch in Larchmont, NY is having a Rebecca Wood trunk show, so their May newsletter shows off plenty of Rebecca's designs.  The shop tells you which project was stitched using a guide and who wrote the guide, which is very useful if you are seeking a guide for one of Rebecca's designs and want to know what it will look like stitched.  Guides listed are by Sherry Bray, Amy Bunger, Terry Christopher Castillo, and Tony Minieri.  A lot of the photos are of stitched projects but not all.  Still, it's useful to have a source to look up available guides.  If a photo of a stitched project doesn't list a stitch guide writer, a customer of Stitch by Stitch worked without a guide.

Melita Stitches Five Vases with Curly Bamboo

Years ago Melita took a class from the designer SharonG herself around Sharon Garmize's "Five Vases with Curly Bamboo" which you can see unstitched here.

https://www.amysgoldenstrand.com/store/p922/5_Vases_with_Curly_Bamboo.html

Melita used SharonG's guide for this beauty.  Sharon's a master of light coverage stitches as you can see with Vase One, the green one on the left with a feather design.

https://melitastitches4fun.com/2017/03/15/vase-1-of-5-vases-by-sharon-g/

Some of Melita's chapter buddies are also stitching this.  Some are using Sharon's guide, some guides by Amy Bunger or Tony Minieri.  In this blog article Melita worked the ruby glass vase which has lots of beads.

https://melitastitches4fun.com/2017/03/15/vase-1-of-5-vases-by-sharon-g/

For the teal blue vase with the dragonfly, Melita stuck to Sharon's light coverage although the guides by Amy and Tony have more solid stitching (and Tony has full coverage on all the vases apparently).

https://melitastitches4fun.com/2020/06/08/vase-3-of-5-vases-by-sharon-g/

The yellow floral vase was stitched next, including the bamboo stalks in the vase.

https://melitastitches4fun.com/2020/07/12/vase-4-of-5-vases-by-sharon-g/

Melita can't find the blog posting on the final vase, the cinnamon one, but this article talks about it briefly and also talks about the different ways the stitch guide writers approached this design.

https://melitastitches4fun.com/2024/04/22/sharon-g-canvas-vases/
