Canvaswork, From Nancy's Needle, Works in Progress

Canvaswork updae

Anne S

My weekend plans didn’t quite go as planned, so instead I sat in my room and got some ‘needle’ practice in … and loved every little stitch.  Here’s how my canvaswork piece looks like after a full day today and a few hours yesterday (inbetween sleeping half the day) … another 1-2 weeks and this one will be finished 🙂

And after that quick little preview, it’s time to settle in for the night and my final 1/2 hour of stitching … then it’s back to hydrotherapy in the morning 🙂

  3. Several ladies in my stitching group have stitched this piece. It is so beautiful. great progress!

    1. Hi Wendy, I’ve purchased mine mostly from overseas, but in recent years Karen has started to stock a few charts at The Stitching Post in Katoomba – here’s a link to her From Nancy’s Needle designs: http://www.thestitchingpost.com.au/needlepoint-from-nancys-needle-c-5_24_216.html She also has the odd Laura J Perin design as well: http://www.thestitchingpost.com.au/needlepoint-laura-perin-c-5_24_217.html

      Not sure about any other Aussie sellers, I think Canvaswork designs are really difficult to find over here (not to mention the actual canvas itself which can usually only be found in white).

      I bought my last Northern Pine Designs ones direct from the designer: http://www.northernpinedesigns.com/

      Talking of buying direct, you can also buy direct from Orna Willis: http://www.ornadesign.com/shop/home.php?cat=2

      And lucky last, you can buy Jen’s Jems designs (very, very bright and contemporary) from Nancy’s in NZ: http://www.nancys.co.nz/jensjems.htm

      Hope that helps a teeny bit 🙂 Hugs, Anne

  11. Love the colours Anne. They are so you 🙂 I would be thrilled to have a visit from you and your Mum. It would be so much easier to catch up once I am in the North Island.
