Update on Bunny

Well I don't have to go to work today until 1:00pm so I thought I get a jump on weekend cleaning. But I had to tear myself away to show you a picture of my Bunny's progress. I decided to stitch him on 16ct Aida cloth. The first one is almost finished and I was thinking of adding some french knots to his tail and on the basket some straight stitches to make it look like wicker from a basket.
Have a great day and I will post more progress this weekend.

Free Bunny Chart for 2010

Well here is my bunny pattern. I love the look of the vintage chocolate molds. They remind me of my young days, going to the chocolate shop at Easter and seeing all of the huge chocolate bunnies.
I thought with this one I would try to stitch it facing left and facing right. Cut them out and sew them together, stuff and weight the bottom. Maybe even have the basket stitched as to have it open and fill with flowers.
I cant wait to try it. I hope you will post your progress on your blog and email me so I can check it out. I will post my progress for you and see what happens. Maybe you can even send me a picture of your finished bunny so I can share on the blog. Be creative in your finishing.
Good Luck and lets share our stitching experience and ideas.

Just click on the chart or charts and print from your computer. I tried it and it works.

Hi, I am busy working on my free bunny pattern for 2010.
I'm working on the chart today and it should be ready by Monday.
So check back for it and i am planning on stitching it with you. I plan on making a 3D ornament. I will post my progress, but first I have to finish the pattern and post it for you. Wish me luck. Just incase you never got the one for 2009 here is a link for it. 2009 bunny

Strawberry Hill

I have been thinking a long time about "Strawberry Hill". I finally finished the design today. Already to be stitched. I just want to tea stain some 16ct Sandstone linen. Along with the chart I will give directions to make a 3D strawberry pincushion to hang with the design.,along with some green wool for the top. Its also been designed with a framing size of 5 X 7. It just makes framing so much easier when you have more to choose from. And yes I did start stitching "Halloween Cove" , but I'm not sure if i like the fabric yet. Still time to change my mind.
Sorry no pictures yet but you will have to use your imagination.
Have a good night

Update #2 for Market

Just a note to tell everyone that is attending The Nashville Needlework Market that my 3 models of "The Tidal River....." series will be going with Picture This Plus.
So if you would like to see them please visit the room for "Picture This Plus". I hope you all have a great time.

Update

Hi everyone, I finished a couple of weeks ago a new design "Halloween Cove". I'm searching for the right fabric and then will stitch up the model. I think its strange to think of Halloween when spring is just around the corner but I figured by the time I finished stitching the model, make directions and charts it might be close to early summer for a release. And of course you need time to stitch it for fall. So my heads been jumping around as usual. And I was thinking of a "Strawberry Hill" I get so excited when I can design them. Well I have to go and pay some bills but I will release a peek of "Old Sea Captains House" a little later. Thats one is finished also.

Old South Church Going To Market

Hi everyone. I just wanted to thank you for leaving comments on my blog. I am sorry that I haven't had a chance to reply yet but I will this weekend. I finished the second in my series. This one is called "Old South Church"
Here are some photos to share. I just picked them up today from the printer and will mail them out to the distributor and the charts will go to the Nashville Needlework Market without me. I cant wait for the day I can go to. It will be so exciting. But my hubby still is not well enough so I will be home designing more things and stitching away making models.
Have a good night.
