You meet the best people at Needlepoint gatherings!

One of the big perks of being involved in needlework  community is attending  the Dallas Needlework Market. I get to visit with some of the most talented artists . One of the things I look forward to is my visit with Jim and Lisa Krause whose company is Deux Bijoux Bijoux.  When I walked into their display last week ,  I told Jim I  wanted one of everything and of course he laughed heartily! Not only are they the nicest people you will ever meet but they are two incredibly talented artists who do fabulous things with needlework. Here are just a few of the wonderful things they had on display.
