The kitchen is the heart of the home. It's often the first place to stop every day for a quiet cup of coffee and time reading the newspaper, or a noisy breakfast with children or grandchildren. And, it's kept warm and bright late into the night with friends and family gathered around the table playing games or enjoying conversation over hot cups of tea.

New designs this week focus on the kitchen and let you add your creative flair to that heart of the home. Dress up kitchen canisters with new designs that say "flour,"  "sugar," "coffee," and "tea."  Your baking essentials will be close at hand, easily identifiable, and personalized with your skillful touch.

New "kitchen kits" contain colorful designs that are perfect for dressing up aprons, placemats, and more. Each "kit" includes a feature design, a matching bottle apron, and a long and short border. As always designs are available for purchase individually, but you'll find the value pack tempting with its low price of $5.97.

The new kitchen kits are in a variety of themes, including classic "Kiss the Cook," cozy "Grandma's" or "Nana's" Kitchen, and colorful lush vegetables. Coordinating bottle aprons let you dress up bottles of wine, olive oil, dish soap, jarred or canned goods, and more.

Enjoy the "Kitchen Thyme" this week, and have fun embroidering for the heart of the home!
