This month we're catching up on releases from Lanarte, Nora Corbett and Cottage Garden Samplings. Bothy Threads have an affectionate tribute to our late, dearly-loved Queen Elizabeth.
Kits
Lanarte have added a new design in the culture collection of an Indian lady in traditional dress with sumptuous fabric decorated with beads and sequins.
Bothy Threads Autumn Catalogue is now out and we have some of the new designs in stock. There's an affectionate tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II, two more colourful shoes by Sally King. There are more Wrendale designs, Morris style tapestry cushions and cross stitch and a new range of Christmas cards. The catalogue has 42 new kits altogether and you can see all of them in our online catalogue of the Bothy Threads Autumn 2022 Collection. If there's something you see that's not in stock then we'll be happy to order it for you - Bothy are just down the road and we can stock up quickly.
Patterns
Nora Corbett has added another two fairies to her Rose Couture Collection. Gigantic French Rose and Malmedy Rose have a lot of materials in common. Malmedy Rose uses nearly the same beads as Gigantic French Rose - just one extra clamshell is needed - so you might consider buying just one embellishment pack to do both patterns.
There's also a new design called Conservatory from Nora's Winter Greenhouses series.
The twelfth and final pattern from the Year in the Woods series by Cottage Garden Samplings is The Reindeer.
Bargain Basement
There are cartoon animals in the Bargain Basement for the month of November.
And Finally
November 5th is bonfire night here in the UK when we celebrate a failed plot in 1605 to blow up Parliament and the King.
Our title is inspired by fire it's been at the heart of our civilisation since humans came into being. It stands for warmth, security and comfort - especially on cold winter nights.
«How well I know what I mean to do
When the long dark autumn-evenings come:
And where, my soul, is thy pleasant hue?
With the music of all thy voices, dumb
In life's November too!»
from By The Fire-Side by Robert Browning, English poet 1812-1889
As a stitcher you will be looking forward to quiet evening hours by the fireside and - like the poet - you know exactly what to do!
Until next month, enjoy your stitching and your home fire if you're lucky enough to have one.
