MAKING HAY WHILE THE SUN SHINES WITH J&J GRAPHICS

January and February are usually really busy months for us, so I scheduled two needlepoint trunk shows for this month. I did not count on the Groundhog Effect of recurrent snowstorms/squalls/periods of delight for school children/cash flow panic for everyone except the grocery stores and gas stations. We will need your help during this period of time. While I am giving you some eye candy from these trunk shows, you know that nothing beats seeing them in person. If you cannot visit, call me, and I can walk you through these pieces.

This first show that I am presenting (because I haven't hung the other one up yet) is from J&J Graphics. You can see that they are characterized by very two dimensional painting which is like manna from heaven for needlepointers. They sent six models to help you understand how you might stitch these pieces.
