STITCH OF THE MONTH
|
|
Open Bargello Vertical Wave
A HON customer stitched this beautiful Leigh Designs
canvas and had it made into a tray. She used a vertical open wave (bargello-like) stitch in a variegated metallic fiber to create this striking background.
You decide where to start your next row depending on how much canvas you want to show. Once you get the pattern established this will be a quick and fun background stitch.

TIP OF THE MONTH
|
|
Get Organized
Clear plastic organizers with adjustable dividers let you customize the size compartments you want. They are stackable and come in various sizes. Find them at Walmart, Michaels and The Container Store.
Individual plastic container/tub organizers are also good for various fibers. They come in a variety of sizes and are also stackable and can be fit into a much larger box if you want to keep your fiber stash all together. Also available at The Container Store.

is here and many of our customers have had custom ring bearer pillows, groomsmen belts and bridesmaid's gifts created that will be presented later this month and into the summer and fall. Below is a beautiful example of a pillow the mother-of-the bride just finished for her daughter and new son-in-law.
It was designed by our In-House Artist
who has been designing and painting for HON since it's inception 30 years ago.
We have three additional custom artists who can also help you create that special canvas. Stop in, call or email us to inquire about doing one
for
your loved one's special occasion.
