New Frame!

Between last week's monster "haboob" and a 118-degree day, our thoughts have been turning to the (relatively) cooler days of autumn. So what better time to introduce our newest frame style, The Game Board Frame© shown here on The Primitive Needle's Patriotic Jack Game Board ~ all ready for Halloween. There are a number of game board charts out there, and this frame would work for any of them.

As with most of our frames, this one can be custom sized with your preference of color and graining style.  Our model is shown in "Redcoat" with a "Marble" design.

Game of checkers, anyone?

Hornbooks

We love them! And what a perfect time of year ~ back to school ~ to show you our line of these ever-popular frames. The two you see in this photo are our very first hornbook styles. The hornbook on the right is for The Primitive Needle's  Hornbook Angel, and was actually our very first hornbook.

The hornbook on the left is one we have been making almost as long, and is very well-suited for Carriage House Sampling's two hornbook charts:  Hornbook Sampler and Hornbook Revisited.  While these charts are now out of print, the frames are still available.

Both of these hornbook frames are available in a number of sizes.

The hornbook for Plum Street Sampler's Halloween Hornbook (pictured above) is another that we just love and has been very popular. Again, this hornbook frame is available in several sizes. It is simply called Paulette's Hornbook.

And finally, here is the hornbook frame we made for With My Needle's  A Multiplication Table Examplar. Ellen knew exactly what she wanted for this wonderful sampler, and to date, this hornbook has been one of our best sellers! We are happy to announce that it is now available in a size that will accommodate the sampler as stitched on 40-count linen over two threads.

Do you have a hornbook sampler for which you need the perfect frame? Just let us know!
