New Stitch Monday – Triple Rice

Here is an interesting stitch that I found while I was working on a project for the shop, Triple Rice.  There seems to be several variations for the Rice Stitch.  I liked this one because there are many thread choice possibilities.   I used Neon Rays, in a contrasting color, as the base for the 6 by 6 cross stitch.   Using an over-dyed Gloriana thread  for the accent stitches really gave me the look that I wanted for my project.   Playing around with the threads will give you different finished looks.  Give it a try!

Exclusive Designs by Raymond Crawford

Stephanie is anxiously waiting for the 2 exclusively designed canvases by Raymond Crawford so that she can begin writing the stitch guides.

The canvases measure 9 ½ by 9 ½ on 18 count canvas.  Lots of finishing potential.  Some of the ideas are to have it finished and placed in a Lucite or Sudberry tray, finish as a pillow, standup or a hanging banner.

We will also be able to offer the canvases in 13 count.  The delivery date for 13 count canvases will be sometime in April.

The cost of the canvas is $120 and the thread kit is to be determined once the canvases arrive which will be sometime in March.  There is no charge for the stitch guide if you purchase the canvas and threads.

As a thank you the first 20 orders of each canvas will receive a complimentary magnet to go with their canvas.

To reserve your canvas please call the shop at (201) 612-7770 or send an email to stitches@ridgewoodneedlepoint.com.  Please be sure to indicate which canvas you would like.
