July 18th Class & other News ~

~ Good Morning Friends & Folk ~

another hot one in the works…hoping you're all keeping safe & cool in this heat-wave!

it is WAY too early for this heat, me thinks…

can't wait until August {not.}

So 

I have finished up the little

Summer House Scissors Fob class project model

that I showed you yesterday ~

here it is :)

~ all done ~

I added tassel made from beautiful Valdani pearl cotton

{"Terra Cotta Twist" ~ O510}

...a wonderful mix rust & burnt-orange shades 

that I think lend nicely to the  DMC thread colors used in this stitch ~

I love the way the Valdani pearl cotton has a 'frizzled'-look to it…

it is #8 weight, so not too thick for a tassel 

{and perfect weight for my punch needle too!}

I am putting together a new Designer Collection of Valdani colors, 

to go along with my upcoming

Autumn & Hallowe'en punch needle designs ~ 

{{you can find my "Spring" by Notforgotten Farm Valdani Designer Collection: HERE}}

….look for more news on that real soon!!!!!

the little scissors are just another pair in my ever-growing collection

 and are available from 

Kelmscott designs

these scissors are aptly named "Vintage Black"

I have just a few spots left if you'd like to join us for this class ~

you can call the studio at 434-263-6508 

or email me at Not4got@aol.com to reserve your chair!

I will be serving refreshments ~ 

brewed sweet tea & fresh-baked treats :)

Hoping you all have a bee-you-tea-full Summer's day my friends!

~ Blessings from the Farm ~
