Share your stitchy story

December 22, 2011 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

Janet Perry of Nuts About Needlepoint is putting together a collection of stories about needlepoint, and she invites you to submit your story for consideration. She says,

Don’t worry if you aren’t a professional writer, a great story is better than great writing!

Find out more, including the submission deadline, at Janet’s blog post.
