Saturday Stitches

Permit Me Not to Stray

Now Available

You've seen the photos already, but now the official announcement... my two new designs are listed in my etsy shop and also available directly through me (beth@heartstringsamplery.com). They are both on display at the TNNA show in Nashville this weekend, so if you are attending (jealous!), be sure to drop by the Norden Crafts room for an in-person view.

Market Preview

Since one of my distributors accidentally let the cat out of the bag a bit soon, and many of you have already seen the photos, I figured I might as well give you a real peek at the designs to be released this coming weekend in Nashville...
