Welcome friends to issue #26
      The holidays are here again! Evening parties, office parties, and family gatherings dot the calendar. Get busy on your gift or accessory stitching with the projects found here. Linda Gettings offers a glam square stitch Gold Rush bracelet. Sandra D Halpenny shares not one but TWO fabulous holiday inspired projects: a mini ornament cover and a dazzling snowflake. I've contributed a quick-stitch tweed keychain gift idea for the guys in your life. Barb Nichols will get you ready for the holidays with two very different bracelet designs that both feature flat back rivolis. Marilyn Peters stitched a light as a feather frosty necklace confection that would look just as fabulous in any color combination. Sharon Boehme shares more Holiday stitching with a Christmas tree and present tea light cover, great for stocking stuffers and last minute gifts!!    Deb Moffett-Hall - Editor
