Stitch Guides Available at Needlepoint.com

Needlepoint.com has collected all their canvases that come with stitch guides included on three pages on their website.  If you want to stitch with guidance, check out the variety available.
https://needlepoint.com/collections/canvases-with-stitch-guides-included?_bta_tid=35126131025476411863323762670795541861744256423992583817787331559454177676990676288929431291105899093278&_bta_c=fax2w2cfy5wifubvp3mwmp1g2qrfm

Most guides appear to be from A Collection of Designs (now Burnett and Bradley) or Kirk and Hamilton (now Kirk and Bradley) but there are CBK and Kathy Schenkel pieces listed, too.  I also spotted a Artists Collection piece and something from Charley Harper.

Stitch Guides for Christmas

AlexParas NeedleArts has stitch guides for Christmas—literally! For the month of November 2018, all their Christmas-themed canvases that have stitch guides included are in one place on their website.  If you buy one of these (and don't tarry because there are probably only one of each) you may get 20% off or you can get 10% off and the other 10% will go to their charity of the month, which happens to be the Puppy Up Foundation.

There's a huge range of designers so if you want to stitch something Christmas and would like a guide, check these out.  Puppy Up will thank you!

From Carrots to Doggie Bones (Hugs and Stitches from Suzanne)

Suzanne Hicks has gone from bunnies to puppies with her latest "littles."  I didn't know Ann Wheat Pace even had little dog bone ornaments but Suzanne has done them up proud and has some wonderful finishing ideas for them, as well as for the Kathy Schenkel Easter carrots she just finished.
http://suzannehicks.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-littles.html

Stitching Plans (that's what Suzanne calls her stitch guides so that you won't feel as if you have to follow them to the letter) are available for these cuties and many other things here.

Stitch Guides from Enriched Stitch

The Enriched Stitch in Connecticut has updated their site with a list of stitch guides they offer. I believe all the guides are written by Suzie P. Vallerie who teaches at the shop.  The list is by designer:  Kathy Schenkel, Ewe and Eye/Maggie, Brenda Stofft, Liz at Tapestry Tent/Susan Roberts, Melissa Shirley, Rebecca Wood, DJ Designs, Design Gallery, Needle Deeva, Shelly Tribbey and Strictly Christmas.  A few items have photos of the canvases but most just have a brief description. You'll have to ask the shop if you are unsure about whether the guide you want is on the list.  Click on Location to get their email address and phone number.
http://enrichedstitch.com/stitch-guides/

They also are working on Ewe and Eye's Winter Farm Fun for their Fall 2014 retreat.   This will be available as a stitch guide and/or kit after the retreat ends.

UPDATE:
Here's a listing of all the Melissa Shirley designs Enriched Stitch has guides for.

Kathy Schenkel Complimentary Stitch Guides

Many, but not all, of Kathy Schenkel's canvases come with stitch guides.  Here is her site.  It doesn't tell us what canvases come with guides.  Ask your local shop for help.
