Just a quick note to wish you and yours a Happy New Year!

Welcome to 2014! I’m so glad we’re all here together, chipping our way steadily into this third millennium!

And I’m really looking forward to sharing 2014 with you on Needle ‘n Thread!

Right now, for 2014, I have three projects in the planning stages, stewing and simmering. I’m excited about all three. The first one that we’ll face together is based on a drawing from this book that I mentioned the other day. It will be a project suitable for beginners and beyond.

There are three e-books (unrelated to those projects) underway in one stage or another right now, too, and they’ll each show up eventually in this new year.

I’m also planning to host a couple online classes this year, one of which will concentrate on monograms. I’ve been working behind the scenes on the possibility of a new hosting platform, and if it works out, you’ll hear about it in the first few months of the new year.

And of course, there’s all the other fun stuff that will unfold on Needle ‘n Thread this year – there’s a lot to look forward to, for 2014!

My wish for you is that the new year is a magnificent one in every way – that you enjoy many blessings throughout 2014, with good health, happiness, and plenty of time for stitching!
