What's New in Needlepoint: Bracelets
Have you been keeping up with the reports out of New York and
London's Fashion Week runway shows? The motifs, colors, styles and
trends seen there will trickle their way through the retail landscape
like a branching river, making their way to low, medium and high end
stores. As it has for hundreds of years, embroidery is still trendy for
embellishments. While many of us can't afford Alexander McQueen couture,
we can add spots of stitching to our outfits and be right on trend.
Start with these new needlepoint bracelets from Cheryl Schaeffer and
Annie Lee Designs. While needlepointed jewelry cuffs aren't new, Cheryl
and Annie's designs and silver bangle style are refreshing. We spotted
these at the TNNA tradeshow in January, and knew they'd be a hit: quick
to stitch, easy finishing, and you get the bangle when you buy the
painted canvas. Just add threads—with a spice or two of Kreinik
metallics, of course. The designs would make great gifts for yourself or
a friend.
Take a look at the photos here to see a few of the design options.
