Happy Valentine's Day from Sundance Designs


Happy Valentine's Day

"A day for lovers everywhere
and especially for those who love needle art!"

Here are a few Sundance Hearts from our line of 
fine handpainted needlepoint canvases

A Time for Love
Original design for Sundance Designs by Gale Tuoti
Stitched by Sandra Arthur

This hand painted needlepoint design was taught by Sandy Arthur at our Winter trade show in Long Beach, CA and is available with a very extensive stitch guide. Some of the unique techniques used are pulled work, padding, shirring, and gathering. Today's "hot" threads--silks, metallics, overdyed cottons and ribbons were used as well as our Sundance beads, sequins and Sparkles Embellishment thread which was ironed flat and attached with sequins and beads for the mint green border.
