Treasure Map (Fire and Iris)

Fire and Iris' latest little design is "Treasure Map."  Isn't she cute?!

Fire and Iris has a free stitch guide on their website, too.  Many of their designs have basic guides so if you have another Fire and Iris canvas, check their website to see if there are any stitching tips for your cutie.

Boo (David Galchutt and Ruth Schmuff)

Ruth Schmuff shows off the fun Halloween piece "Boo" from David Galchutt, stitched using Ruth's own guide.  (And the spider is in a pirate costume; who can resist THAT?!)

The canvas and stitch guide are available from Ruth's shop as she is also the distributor of David Galchutt designs.

Needle House Loves Pirates

Judy Meyer of The Needle House in Houston has created a stitch guide for this darling pirate and treasure chest tooth fairy pillow.  Sorry, I don't know the designer of this charmer.

Contact the shop to get the guide and canvas.  The shop will work a custom guide for any canvas, by the way.

Mermaids in the Air (or Ocean) UPDATED

Stitch By Stitch in Larchmont has added a great new stitch guide for a mermaid tooth fairy pillow to their collection.  I am not certain who the designer of this canvas is but it might be Gayla Elliott.  Anyone know?

Ruth Schmuff is also doing a stitch guide for mermaids, this time for four Sandra Gilmore (Once in a Blue Moon) mermaid panels.  These were originally released for a tuffet but Ruth talked Sandra into doing rectangular versions.  Then Ruth wrote stitch guides for all four mermaids.

Whatever style mermaid suits you, there is a stitch guide!

UPDATE:  EyeCandy's mermaid pirate also has a Ruth Schmuff stitch guide.  Ada (the genius behind EyeCandy) posted a photo of a finished mermaid with her pirate patch and octopus but Ruth's stitch guide is slightly different as you can see from the photos of all the supplies.
