"There's Magic in my Needle" By Dragon Dreams

 We had a great chat with Thea Dueck of The Victoria Sampler last month on the 25th. Visiting with stitchers can be a great inspiration for a designer as it is always great to get some positive feedback. We learn things from our chat host as well. Don’t miss this month’s hosted chat with Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams. There is an addition to the monthly newsletter that I feel will be helpful for those of us who are a bit “memory challenged”. See page 5! Working from the cottage graphics from the main site, I have put together a chart of a house that may be used as a template for a Sampler Project Section (hint, hint). This includes an alphabet so that you may personalize your section with a saying or quote, such as “My village home welcomes all”.
