I just noticed a set of four mini socks from Ruth Schmuff available on the Nashville Needleworks website. They each come with a stitch guide, probably written by Ruth herself. If you want to try something small, flashy and fun from the amazing brain of Ruth, one of these might be just perfect.

Enriched Stitch and Melissa Shirley Canvases
Enriched Stitch is having a Melissa Shirley truck show, so they listed all the Melissa canvases they have stitch guides for on their blog. The guides are written by various people but the photos show the models to help you pick the one that is more like your stitching style.

Visit the shop's website to buy a guide. Most are available as instant downloads but if you want the canvas and threads, call or email the shop for help.

Amy's Stitch Guide Makeover
Amy Bunger has updated her Amy's Golden Strand shop website. You can read about the update (and see a listing of the newest stitch guides available from Amy and a listing of the guides she is working on now) in her Feb/March 2017 e-newsletter. By the way, at the very end of the newsletter Amy shows off students' stitching so you can see what the end product for some of her guides looks like.

This is a direct link to the stitch guide section of the updated website. Remember to go to AMYSGOLDENSTRAND.COM, not the AmyBunger.com website, which still goes to the old website format.
