New On Newsstands...

The July/August issue of Just CrossStitch Magazine is currently arriving in mailboxes, at needlework shops, and on newsstands. I am happy to tell you, this issue features an ornament by Blue Ribbon Designs...in fact, my ornament made the cover! It is called "Christmas Cottage" and is located middle right in the photo...it features a little red cottage with pine branches and red birds. This ornament is stitched on Weeks Dye Works Mocha linen with Weeks Dye Works cotton floss (DMC conversions are provided). Even more fun...there will be another ornament that coordinates with this one in the Just CrossStitch Ornament Issue due out later this fall...and a little hint (shhh)...it has an adorable snowman. It is the perfect time to get a jump start on your holiday stitching...so, if you are not a subscriber, be sure to pick up this holiday issue at your favorite needlework shop!

On an additional note...I am planning a giveaway especially for my Facebook "fans" this week...so if you haven't visited the Blue Ribbon Designs Facebook page, be sure to do so and click the "Like" button...details will be posted soon...
