Scarlet Quince News
November 2019

We're excited to announce that we have licensed several Norman Rockwell works! The first of these, Freedom from Want (and a smaller detail version) are now available! We'll be adding the other Four Freedoms and more in the near future. This one was suggested by Velle Mere Lyons, from DeLand, Florida, and we have sent her a copy of the pattern to thank her for her suggestion. (Our other new patterns are by suggestion also -- we're still trying to reach the people who suggested them.)

A new version of SQ Stitch has been released! There are a few enhancements:

• A "manage list" button has been added to the patterns tab. When you click this, show/hide buttons appear next to the patterns. You can hide patterns you're not currently working on to make the list of patterns shorter.
• On the chart tab, a menu icon has been added to the left of the "click mode" buttons. The items on the dropdown are:
  • Scroll lock (moved from its own button on the main screen)
  • Finished stitch lock -- this prevents you from undoing completed stitches accidentally
  • A tool to find the next unfinished stitch. This can be any symbol (in case you're finished but have missed a stitch or two), or the next occurrence of the last symbol you stitched. A dialog box appears to tell you where the stitch is in the chart, and you can just note the information, or have the chart jump to that location.

I don't always remember to say it, but we are receiving frequent updates for the gallery, and for a change, we're pretty much keeping up with adding them! If you haven't visited the gallery lately, be sure to check all the new work!

We are having a pre-holiday sale, as we do every year! Everything is 10% off, now through December 2!

Keep stitching,
Meredith
