Rose Acolyte is a Maine-based, one-person studio making needlepoint designs, pottery, quilts, and other handmade crafts.

Colorful, modern needlepoint designs available as a part of the Saturnalia Stitching collective of designers, as well as free charts.
Whimsically illustrated ceramics. Mostly functional work and occasional decorative tiles, handbuilt very slowly at Portland Pottery Studio and fired in reduction.

Finally revamped my needlepoint page. It now has images of all my currently released designs as well as a bunch of charts, and more info generally! Just in time for new designs to launch in a few weeks, lol. But it feels nice for it to be up to date for now at least.
I also have a new quilts page with some of my quilting work from last year. It is disorganized and I wish I had a better story to tell about all of it... but I'm just putting it up now so as not to let the perfect become the enemy of the acceptable.
There is also now an updates archive page (see the link below) so that the homepage is less cluttered with updates from last year. I'm glad that I have actually been using and updating this site!
