I haven't stitched for a while but up to about 3 years ago it was my obsession. I fell for the fantasy designs by Teresa Wentzler some 20 years back, went to a needlecraft show in California to meet her a few years later and she became my dearest friend. ASadly she all but gave up designing a couple of years back (she's also an artist so concentrated on building up her art portfolio) because sales dropped off and there was so much copyright infringement on a vast scale. Since just about everything I stitched was designed by her I felt a big hole in my life even though we're still friends. If you go to my Picturetrail album you cn see all her designs  www.picturetrail.com/fionab
