Excellent Hand Embroidery Resource
/ Sep242017One of the most excellent resources on the internet for hand embroidery is Mary Corbet’s NeedleNThread If you have not visited her site you must go there and explore all the information that she has to offer. She sends out a daily email newsletter on embroidery tips, reviews on needlework products and things she is working on.
I highly recommend Mary’s Surface Embroidery Stitch Videos. These videos will be really useful if you purchase any of my Surface Embroidery Kits.
Mary also has some great beginners tutorials in surface hand embroidery, if you are not ready for my surface embroidery kits in the form of ebooks.
I will cover more of her brilliant posts later on.

New Website Information Page
/ Sep232017I have added a really comprehensive webage on metal threads, which has a photograph of the metal thread set up against a ruler so you have a better idea of the size of the metal thread, making it easier for you to choose metal threads for your own embroidery.
I also have included pictures and descriptions of how the metal thread can be used in an embroidery.
You can link from the metal thread information page to the product pages by clicking on the name of the metal thread that is highlighted in blue.
New – USA Currency Option To Pay for Your Order
/ Sep192017Hi
You are now able to purchase supplies from my website in USA dollars as well as in Canadian dollars.
I am based in Canada but a lot of people who love to do embroidery are in the USA and it will be much easier now as you will know how much you are paying when you pay for your order rather than waiting for the bank to convert the charge from Canadian to USA dollars.
Shipping costs is also pretty reasonable from Canada. I do not include shipping in the cost of my kits and supplies as I would have to put the value of my items up to cover costs. I like to be fair and honest with my pricing and charge shipping separately.
Thanks for dropping by,
Tanja
Welcome
/ Sep172017Hi
I am excited to present a new look for my website which should be easier to navigate on all viewing devices.
My old website ran for 17 years which I developed myself. For my new website I am pleased to have worked with Ryan and his team from Digital Lyon in Calgary. He worked with me to develop the new look for my website and then I added all the pictures and information that you see.
I hope you enjoy the new look and as always please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about the products, information on embroidery and placing an order.
