I'm looking for an older needlepoint chart book that she and another Carol did together. I took a class in San Marino, CA in the late 1970's at a shop called The Needle Tree, and "Carol and Carol" had a book of designs that included swags that look like something you'd see on Wedgwood. There was a circular pattern that they made into a clock face. Anyway, I can't remember the name of the book, and it predates the ones I'm able to find online. I thought maybe if I could contact her, she could tell me how I could find the book I'm looking for. Thanks very much!

Back in the mid-1970's, I took a class from her (and another lady named Carol) at The Needle Tree in San Marino, CA. They had a book of designs that included swags that looked like something you'd see on a Wedgwood piece. And there was a circular design that they'd finished into a clock face. I've been looking in vain for this book again, but since I can't remember the name, or the name of the other Carol, I haven't been successful. Do you know whether it's still possible to be in touch somehow with Carol Costello? I'd love to be able to ask her about these older designs. Thanks for whatever help you might be able to give me. My e-mail address is ccarr@hamptonholley.com.

I am so glad you found the confidence to design this - I am thinking that now you also have the confidence to go on and design more!!<BR/><BR/>I wonder which is your favourite ribbon? And next favourite? My favourite one is the broad one on the right, with the 5 white crossed stitches - just divine. My next favourie is the thin one beside it. <BR/><BR/>Have you thought about making up a pattern to sell?<BR/>JocelynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3541885083874632647.post-63591604720691763372008-06-06T11:25:33.312-07:002008-06-06T11:25:33.312-07:00Laura,Like you I just love ribbon patterns and you...Laura,<BR/><BR/>Like you I just love ribbon patterns and you have done an absolutely lovely job at creating this piece and the colors are wonderful too.<BR/><BR/>I may have to stitch that one if it is available for us to purchase.
