What I did today :)

It is so beautiful today, and I finished designing "Stitch An Inch Christmas 2011". There are 10 tiny designs that can be tiny one inch treasures or they can be two inch Ornaments. I went to Yankee Cross Stitch this morning to drop off more things for her sale so I took a picture to share. I also have fallen in love with crocheting again and have added a little bit of it to one of my Funky Flowers. You can see it on the table in the photo. I made a ruffle and used the same DMC floss on the edges as I used in the flower. I also made the ruffle for the candle stick with the pumpkin pin cushions. It was so much fun, I love trying new things and adding embellishments.

I am going to sit on my porch and do some stitching so that I can share it tomorrow.
Have a good night
donna - OH YES!! "Bailey" says HI!!  (Shes on one of my book shelves and I think she looks grumpy! Must be naptime)

Only a few kits left

The white pumpkin on top of the block is in the kit and this picture is to show you more ideas of what to do with your little pumpkins. Glue them on top of a candle stick, add some ruffle or even change the color of your wool. You can also make them larger for displays or smaller for ornaments.

Good evening every one this is a quick post to tell you that I have approx 6 kits left for the "White Pumpkin Pin Cushions". I will be working on more kits for Christmas and also a class for Yankee Cross Stitch of a white dragonfly with wool and cream colored flowers for the holidays and into winter. I cant wait to work on it and I will share some photos too. Feeling blah today and what a headache, so I am going to bed early and I will talk more tomorrow. Thank you to everyone that has ordered from Etsy, your orders will go out tomorrow, there was no mail service today :(

Good Evening, Just added some frames & charts on Etsy

Hi everyone, I just love reading your comments and thank you. I will this week stop by every ones blog that left me a comment.
I just finished the frames and added a small bonus chart to go along with them, so for every frame purchased I will send you the design of my 4 tiny acorns. I only have so many frames that I made from this batch. I can never get the same 2 batches of faux paint and finishing the same. Oh well, I guess that is what makes them originals. I thought the opening was exactly one inch but it is 1 1/4 inches. So I still stitched my piece and framed it like any other picture with the extra material around and pinned it over mounting board, Here is the picture.
I am off to stitch some more and then tomorrow is a day set aside for painting. We go to the used furniture shops and pick up things that I can refinish. Oh what fun!!
Have a good night
