It's American Eagle Day

LH-3   Canvas by Leland Holiday

Sneak Peek

Here are a few of the new canvases we will be showing at the Vegas market.  You can see the rest on January 25th on the NEW page of our website...www.tapestryfair.com.

Early Christmas Present

I've been collecting stitched canvases for years, and after the move I finally found the incentive and time to finish pinning them together and turn it over to the upholsterer.

Most of these pieces are stitched in basketweave for durability, with a few decorative stitches on the back of the chair.

Thanks to Santa and Eric Hennesey of Quintessentials Custom Upholstery...he is a genius!

Ann Spiess Mills

For those of you who are Ann Spiess Mills fans, we are pleased to announce that we have received permission  from her family to adapt her art to handpainted needlepoint.

Because her canvases were one-of-a-kind, I'll have to work from whatever originals I can find.  Luckily I have been able to get my hands on about a dozen, but at some point I'll have to do a shout-out for more.  If anyone has some in their stash we are offering a free new canvas in exchange for borrowing an original.

San Pasqual is the first, and I'll try to get more painted in time for the TNNA January show.

Royalties will go into a college fund for Ann's great grandchildren.

NEW CANVASES

Off to Dallas in a few hours!  Check out the NEW page of our website, www.tapestryfair.com for some of the new pieces we will be showing.

We're Moving1

As of 9-1-17 our new address will be:

Tapestry Fair
733 East Tuckey Lane
Phoenix, AZ 85014

After 30 years in the same location, it's been an extensive move, but I think it will be worth it once we get back to normal.

After this. Destination Dallas will seem like a vacation.!  We will be showing two new artists, as well as new pieces from Kelly Rae Roberts. Manuel Salas, Pat Scheurich , Story Quilts, and Timothy Chapman.  Hope to see you there!

New Canvas

I  finally finished this new piece by Timothy Chapman.  It is called "Hippo Swimming", but I like to think this will be Fiona when she grows up.

TC-5, "Hippo Swimming", will be available in September  for the Dallas show.  If any shops would like to pre-order I can bring the canvases to the show.
