Thank you so much to everyone who clicked through the links, way back on this post<\/a>, and bought books on Amazon. As a result, I had a little pile of Amazon $ and I bought some new craft books to review! Actually, I went to choose some books and the next thing I knew, I had a long list of books- far too many for my budget. Luckily I was able to order some of them up from the library. And then I had an avalanche of books because of course they all come at once! It is a very good problem to have. I will be sharing in the next few weeks because it is really fun!<\/p>\n

The first book is Lisa Solomon’s Knot Thread Stitch: Exploring Creativity through Embroidery and Mixed Media<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

She is going to be one of the teachers at Art Camp<\/a> so I really wanted to check out her book. I was very interested to see that it was full of unusual embroidery projects- including machine embroidery and printmaking! It is a very interesting combination of solid instructions to learn embroidery techniques with some super cool and unusual projects. I can not wait to meet her in August!<\/p>\n

There will be more about the books soon but now, back to the dogs. I made some dogs in January as I was working on patterns and getting ready for my guest artist gig at Gather Here<\/a>. I never put them in my shop because somehow… well, I just didn’t. So I spent a little more time with them. There is this fellow back in January<\/a> and now-<\/p>\n

\"6:13:whitedog<\/a>with a shirt collar and french knot buttons. It’s not much but he looks finished now.<\/p>\n

\"6:13:whitedog<\/a>And this fellow<\/a> hardly got a mention back in January. I am liking him much better with his cashmere scarf and hat.<\/p>\n

\"6:13:beigedog<\/a>Yes, I LOVE the hat!<\/p>\n

\"6:13:beigedog<\/a>Okay, that is 6 dogs so far and there are lots more to come!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
