Coco Cups (Debbie Mumm, Tony Minieri and Laura Taylor) UPDATED
With wintery weather coming on here in the USA, folks are thinking about hot chocolate, hot coffee and hot tea. And stitch guides, naturally! A favorite canvas is Debbie Mumm's "Coco Cups" which is available in two cup or single cup canvases as well. Shops can order the canvas from Melissa Shirley Designs.

Petei Santa Wondeland (Petei and The French Knot) UPDATED
Petei is famous for her small Santa stand up figures, so it was fun to see some of them featured on Stephanie's blog. These were all stitched using stitch guides from The French Knot in Fort Worth, Texas. I think all of the guides are from Diana Bosworth although I can't be sure.
http://stephsstitching.blogspot.com/2016/12/here-comes-santa-claus-petei-santa.html
UPDATE: Steph found more photos of Petei Santas stitched using Diana Bostworth guides. Fun!
http://stephsstitching.blogspot.com/2016/12/more-petei-santas.html
Your favorite shop can order any Petei Santa you like for you from Painted Pony Designs but you'll need to pick up the stitch guides for the models shown on Stephanie's blog from The French Knot. Here are the guides they offer.
