New Canvas Designs
These beautiful sunflower still life canvases have been translated from original watercolor paintings. The flowing gentle shading and sophisticated color palette make these truly breathtaking.
We will have more floral designs to brighten the day; several delightful arrangements in vessels and a large vibrant Flower Market scene. Any of these would be great for embellishment with ribbons, beads, sequins and Sparkles. They would also be an awesome stash buster project.
Day of the Dead--you just can't keep us away from this eccentric and free spirited theme. We have two new Catrina's and an outrageous dog. One of the Catrinas fancies herself as Frieda Kahlo while the other sips on Hot Chocolate in the afternoon. (pictured at left) |

 Barbara Elmore | |
Do you recall Barbara's exciting Skein and Thread Heads? Well, they now have little sisters and pets. You will think Harajuku Style when you see these little cuties with their round faces and big eyes. Harajuku Style is all about breaking the rules, a true way to express your own stitching style and have fun in a creative way. The stitch and embellishment ideas are endless.
Barbara, oh Barbara, her genius never sleeps. She has created a line of Sculpture Samplers. Each canvas strip is stitched separately and assembled into a unique and fun decor piece. These are adorned to the hilt and super fun to stitch.

Demasse Florale
by Barbara Elmore
So with all the fun Barbara has been having, she decided to get real with this beautiful nature inspired Floral Damask Design. Barbara incorporated the very contemporary color palette of honeysuckle and turquoise with beautiful traditional elements, they blended together to create a spectacular work of art.  |

NEW NEW NEW NEW
Embellishments, Trims, Bead Colors and Guatemalan Embroidered Bags
- Sparkles - a shiny, springy, stretchy trim. We are so excited about this fun, bendy trim. The applications are limitless for this couchable metallic tube. You can stretch it skinny or scrunch it fat, twist it, twirl it, or iron it flat! Just tack it into place for instant Sparkle! Check out how Barbara Elmore used it to make fire!
- Sequins - we have added a ton of colors and a new smaller size. It seems to me that Sundance is addicted to shine and glitz.
- New Bead Colors - in all sizes to enhance our extensive line of seed beads.
- We'll have a nice selection of our beautiful Guatemalan Hand Embroidered bags in the booth along with small embroidered and beaded accessory bags as well.
