Just a few days to Christmas and here's a new designer, who seems to have dedicated most of her projects exactly to reindeers, stars and snowflakes. She's Brenda Gervais, the founder of the brand With thy Needle & Thread and for years now, among the "feathers in the cap" of US craft universe. Brenda, in fact, owns a craft shop full of needlework and punchneedle fabrics, threads, charts and accessories: that isn't merely a haberdasher's, but a real boutique "packed" with colors and fancy! So, she decided to add her charts to the many others in the shop, noticing the increasing appreciation of her projects on behalf of her customers. And Brenda truly stands out for her pleasant designs, mixing creative sewing, patchwork and needlework, in the thick group of designers following the so-called primitive style. This Gatherin Acorns is perfect to hang on the door, or for a pin cushion for our mom or aunt; while the funny reindeer Rudolph can go straight on your Christmas tree, just like the amusing French Hen. The cushion Boughs of Holly is meant to be fully cross stitched, to give your living room that wonderful Xmas atmosphere, while the Sampler of the Season - Winter is perfect for all Winter. And if you’d like something timeless (just like friendship, which they are dedicated to), take a look at these ones Friendship Samplers. And in these days, while we’re all waiting for Christmas, it would be great to take some time to spend with easy, though amazing, projects, like this Joy to the World or the sweet Miss Snow Fairy! With Brenda, our Christmas is going to be a perfect old America style Christmas :-)
