Olde Colonial Designs
Pam was first introduced to fine handwork while living in Germany as a youngster with her family. The desire to create with her hands remained with her as an adult, first, as the owner of a needlework and frame shop for 20 years and then as a teacher for guilds and seminars. Many people know Pam as one of the creators of Celebration of Needlework, the country’s premier consumer show held each May in Nashua, NH. She is also the creative director of Olde Colonial Designs, a company that produces wooden items and counted thread designs for the industry.
Romy's Creations
Romy’s Creations is an Italian company run by Romina Petrucci. She started dyeing threads in 2007 just for her own pleasure, then she noticed that all her stitching friends liked and wanted to buy them so she began to do it more “seriously.” Little by little, her business grew to a point that in 2011 she attended her first needlework show in Italy and in 2015 the first one in the US.
She says : “Color is my life, my love and passion. I’ve always had a brush or a pencil in my hand….so, after I started dyeing my own line of threads, drawing my own designs was the next step. I needed to show how my colors brought life to needlework. Join me in a class or in my booth to discover my colorful world made of threads, charts and cute handmade needlework accessories!”
