Baskets and Pears

If you are a fan of Melissa Shirley's Basket series, you will want to consider picking up a copy of the Laura Taylor stitch guide for the October Basket.  The Nimble Needle in NJ has it in stock.

The shop also has the Green Pears guide by the late Wendy Harwood.  This is for a series of Melissa Shirley's small ornamental pears.  Wendy was wildly talented, so pick this one up to treasure and use again and again.
