INDEPENDENT NEEDLEWORK NEWS

Judy Odell has announced on her website that she is previewing the release of a special design this weekend exclusively on her bulletin board. It is a gorgeous accordion style needlebook available only as a partial kit. (You provide the linen and fibers so you can choose any colors you like!) It is not entirely clear to me at this time, but I believe the title of this design is Needle Book - Accordion Style.

For more information on how to obtain this lovely design, its cost, more pictures, and so on, make sure to join Judy’s message board. You’ll be glad you did!

Like all of Judy’s designs, I’m sure this one will be a joy to stitch, and you’ll most likely have a choice between cross stitch, specialty stitches suggested by Judy, or specialty stitches of your own choice. One of my favorite things about Judy and her designs is that she really encourages everyone who stitches her designs to make them their own unique treasures; her design is just a starting point.

Judy’s finishing instructions are always exceptional — easy to follow such that you can finish the design yourself into a three dimensional object. You will be surprised at just how easy finishing your needlework can be when you have a Just A Thought from Judy Odell design to guide the way!

I’m very proud of this Just A Thought from Judy Odell project I stitched and finished all by myself: My Treasures Workstation. You may enjoy reading my detailed posts on my personal blog about the experience, especially if you have never taken an online class with Judy or stitched one of her patterns before. There is little better than the positive recommendation of another stitcher to encourage you to try out a new designer, and Judy Odell definitely received a thumbs up from me!
