A Halloween Share


This is something I stitched a long time ago. It was just for fun,(isn't that the best kind of stitching?). I still have a few things to put around his neck but I thought I would share what is done so far. "Happy Halloween"!!

The Tree





Here are the pictures to share. I have to submit them to the class and see if this project will be accepted. I hope so, it was fun making this project up. Until later, Donna

Stumpwork Tree done

I am so happy I finally finished my stumpwork tree. I can't take a pic to share beacause it's too dark and my camera needs daylight for better pictures, So if I can tomorrow morning I will iron it and take a pic. Soooo excited!!! Well lets go watch those Red Soxs.

Stumpwork Tree update


I just wanted to share a pic of my tree update. I was trying to make pomegranates for the tree but I like the way the acorns look on this tree better, so off with the pomegranate and on with more acorns. Sorry I tried the pomegranates but maybe on another tree. Donna

Hosting A Stitching Group At Yankee Cross Stitch


Well here I am again, Just spoke with Erica from Yankee Cross Stitch and talked about having a stitch group there. It will start in November and will meet every other Tuesday from 10:00am to 1:00pm. If you are interested please check in with her. It should be fun, I have alot of stitching to catch up on and would love to help anyone that has any questions and maybe share some stump work or stitching techniques. Her number is 603-964-9434 or www.yankeecrossstitch.com Hope to see you there in the beautiful New Hampshire seacoast. Also just to mention Yankee Cross Stitch has my other trunk show. I've split up my trunk shows into 2 because I have to many models to send out to one shop, they take up to much space. If your in the seacoast area please take a peek. Maybe I'll see you there, Donna

Stump Work Tree Class Peek


Good Morning! What a beautiful day, a bit chilly but it's good. I've been working on a deadline for a class submission and here is a peek of a tree. I just laid down the foundation and I have to fill in the top layer. The look I'm going for is a reproduction of traditional stumpwork. So think old for me and wish me luck. Have a great day, Donna
