At last, stretcher bars that you can tighten without removing the tacks! These bars are very smooth and of a durable wood designed to be used multiple times.   They have a center mark on each bar so you can quickly and easily find the center of any ground fabric.   Best of all, they are adjustable 4 ways to compensate for fabric sag both vertically and horizontally.   The adjustment mechanism is fully enclosed within each bar.   Adjustment is made with a tool that is sold separately, so you can easily tighten or loosen your fabric as needed.

Nan has two new special edition Charm Garden Pins to enhance your pin cushions and needlebooks.   Hot Tomato features a hand-painted red tomato with green top, silver pins poked into it, along with its wee little strawberry emery.  There is also a small green crystal at the top. This would look wonderful in the new Garden Fresh needlebook and tomato pin cushion from Impie, Hattie & Bea.  Stardust Dragonfly is much larger,  the topper is almost 1-3/4 inches in size, so it's a bit more dramatic.  Opalescent, glittered wings, a green painted and pink crystal body, really beautiful.  This would dress up an elegant pin cushion or needlebook, or pin it in your jacket lapel. 

Nan's latest Garden Pin is a wonderful addition to the series.
