Early Susan Portra Stitch Guides

I didn't realize that Susan Portra and Tony Minieri were the first to do stitch guides for painted canvases until Amy Bunger told me.  I've done a little hunting and found two of Susan's guides on eBay.  This is "Old Saint Nick" from Cheryl Schaeffer, dated 1992.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/186804319344?_ul=US&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5339046648&toolid=10001&customid=eb%3Ag%3Avms%3Aeb%3Ap%3A186804319344%3B&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A1kZNwKo1HQu2n0CmM2c0SbQ18

I also found Susan's guide for "Christopher Columbus," by Damarj.  The date on this guide is also 1992.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/4334937398/susan-portra-christopher-columbus?ls=s&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=susan+portra+stitch+guide&ref=sr_gallery-1-3&pro=1&sts=1&nob=1&content_source=f05c0f40-6725-4f75-a364-ba11a064b3a8%253A8e1e3da6d54e8e7bff3701d4d5f3e6b548ccd7ca&organic_search_click=1&logging_key=f05c0f40-6725-4f75-a364-ba11a064b3a8%3A8e1e3da6d54e8e7bff3701d4d5f3e6b548ccd7ca

This is Damarj's "The Stitcher."  Unfortunately, the date is cut off.  Note how Susan changed the stitching from linen in a hoop to a needlepoint canvas with a geometric pattern.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/155603637009?campid=5338590836&mkcid=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&rb_itemId=155603637009&rb_pgeo=US&toolid=10044&var=0

Watermelon June Candle (Beth Hunt and Amy Bunger)

Noni did a lovely job choosing threads for this Beth Hunt candle canvas.  I think there was a candle for each month with an Amy Bunger guide available.  The guide is quite old so Noni picked out all new threads instead of using ones from the guide that are no longer available.
