"Joy In My Heart" kit

I just added to the Etsy shop a new kit for the Season

It is called "Joy In My Heart"

Here is a link to the shop for the listing...it is a Limited Edition, 

I added it to a wreath I have hanging in my living room...

and every time I say the name I cant help but hum

 the song I learned in the 2nd or 3rd grade...

and if you learned it in school to and 

need a refresher I added a children's video below....

Have a great weekend

Now sing along.........

HAHA

New Addition to the Wool Tree Pattern

I decided to add another to the Wool Pattern!

I do love a Primitive look so I made a 36 inch tree 

with fewer branches and it looks so tall and sparse.

But I did make a few more adjustments to make it more primitive.

If you have purchased the Basic directions from me on how to make

 a Wool Feather Tree then this will be a supplement to the basic directions.

This supplement will be available in the Etsy shop.

An Outside photo, In the flower garden that needs to raked :) 

An inside photo on the warm and sunny porch

And along with the Supplement Directions I included

 the PDF for the Wool Garland and the Wool Roses 

to decorate your trees. 

Hop on over to the Etsy shop here is the link to the Supplement PDF

*Dont forget that this PDF is only a supplement to the 

Wool Tree Directions , 

it has measurements for this Primitive Tree 

but not the directions on how to put it together

Free Thanksgiving Turkey Chart

Well it is that time of the year again for me to tell you all how thankful I am for you...

I have shared this Free Chart before but not everyone has seen it

 and I thought it was a great day to share...

Just click on the words blow the picture to download 

your PDF for this design. 

Have a BLESSED and Thankful Holiday

 full of friends and family and stitching too!!

It is early but I didn't want to forget...HAHA

New Pattern "Stitch An Inch Fall Ornis"

Happy Friday to all

I finished the directions for mt new pattern.."Stitch An Inch Fall Ornis" . 

I actually started this pattern last year and after 

I became sick I did not have any time to do the directions

 or finish with the stitching..and I found it the other week in my stash

 but I had to finish stitching :Soul Food For the Needlesmith"...

I didn't want to hold on to it for another year 

and some of my other "Stitch an Inch" designs were not stitched either 

so I thought to myself..... "Self get moving and finish up these directions" 

So I did :)

They are ready for you in the Etsy shop.. 

I was able to get some hard copies out to some shops 

but with time running out I decided 

to list them in the Etsy shop as a PDF... 

Yes it is fun to get your patterns instantly sometimes

 as it is fun to wait for the mailman too!!!

So head on over to the Etsy shop if you want to stitch up 

some small and quick ornaments or bowl fillers.

I did stitch up a few of them but 

I need to do something with them 

so I will work on it this weekend and share it soon

Happy stitching 

hugs

We are at the end of the Harbor Haven SAL

Good evening Needlesmiths

The last Scene #12 will be going out a little late...I just finished the Free chart that I promised to all of the SAL participants  It went to the printer today (Wednesday) and just ordered photos this evening (Wednesday) so by the time I put all together they will be in the mail for the shop participants by either this Saturday or Monday and I will PDF out the Free chart and Scene #12 to all my participants on the 12th instead of the 10th. These will go out to all that have paid for the whole year... I did have a few that dropped out during the year but you had to stay with us for the year to receive the free chart. SO HERE IT IS............

"Soul Food for the Needlesmith"

This design is a companion to the original

 “I Am A Needlesmith”

Since we all work so diligently with our hands, whether it be for pleasure, to give as gifts, decorate our home or to provide an income for our family we certainly do this with JOY and it does fill our SOUL

One of my favorite Bible verses is below … just a snippet. It was way too long to type

Proverbs 31…

Starting with verse 10

“Who can find a wife of noble character?

She is far more precious than jewels”…

 (v13) “She selects wool and flax and works with willing hands”…….

Stitch this reminder to hang on your wall

 Or to give as a gift

 …that as you work with your

Flax and Wool, Needle and Threads

Remember you are far more

 PRECIOUS than JEWELS.

Happy Stitching

YOU ARE AWESOME!!

Hugs
