One more post about the new releases for Nashville, as there are a number of shop owners who never received the newsletter which was sent out on Wednesday. (If not, and you'd like more information, please send me an email, or watch Flosstube #73 by JBW Designs to see the models in person!
There are six new designs and I will post photos, along with a brief description. Thanks so much for your interest!
#1. A Collection of Petite Samplers - Five small samplers are featured in this 12 page booklet.
#2. Fleur de Alphabets - a tri-fold booklet, with a beautiful set of unique letters, all utilizing either leaves or flowers as part of the font. Worked in just two fibers - and think about all of the beautiful combinations you could create.
#3. Flights of Fancy - I love these six little birds, perched in a tree - looking quite proud of themselves and their plumage! This design is part of an antique Italian sampler , which I purchased last summer, from the early 1800's.
#4. My Heart To You Is Given - a collection of seven heart designs., published in a booklet with a spiral binding. There are so many occasions when a heart design is just right as a gift.
#5. Renee's French Alphabet - the letters are just so graceful and were found in a French alphabet sampler. I can picture just one letter being used as a pinkeep pillow, or a set of letters being stitched as a gift.
#6. When Cardinals Appear - I love the sentiment in this sampler, as so many of us have lost a loved one. When cardinals appear - loved ones are near". I often think of that line, when I see a cardinal on the bird feeder each morning.
Please contact your favorite shop to let them know if you'd like to order any of the designs. Thank you!
