Your freebie is on the way and I have missed you!

Good day everyone, It has been a while again since I posted....it's been a busy summer.

I am designing a new Stitch An Inch Fall scene. Here is the one that is available and with the next one that I design you will be able to continue and extend it from the first one. 

The original one measures 28 x 196 and if you wanted to stitch both of them together it would measure approximately 28 x 392, and if you do stitch it on 28ct over 1 thread it would be about 14 inches long with so much tiny detail :)

I can't wait to show you, but it will have to wait until next week because I am still drawing it out. 

But since I am in a FALL mood I thought I would share the FALL Ornis that are a quick stitch and available in the Etsy shop as a PDF chart...

If you signed up for the newsletter this is the Freebie for you...

A little blue lobster!

You could also change the colors and grab 2 shades of red to make him a popular red one.

I am on my way to the York Corner Mercantile

Have a good weekend and until next week....I promise to post more often

New SAL "The Book Club"

 

I’ve finally finished designing “The Book Club,” one of my 2026 Stitch-A-Longs.
Each section is inspired by a novel filled with characters and stories we can all learn from. Every month, I’ll release a new section featuring characters and motifs related to the story.
Summer is the perfect time to relax, stitch, and read, while remembering the moments that captivate us. At the end of the Stitch-A-Long, I’ll also have the top and bottom of the bookcase available for those who want to add them to their design.
The release date is set for the end of May, just in time for your summer reading list. More details will be shared soon, and if you’d like your local needlework shop to join in, have them contact me to be added to the list when information becomes available.

The six Books that we will be stitching and maybe reading too are:

Anne of Green Gables

The Secret Garden

Pride and Prejudice

Heidi

Little House on the Prairie

Little Women

Have a great day

Dear Mom Etsy Special

 

With Mother’s Day coming up I thought it would be a good time to offer a Special.

I have “Dear Mom, I Get it Now” 

How many times do we remember the wise words of our mothers or grandmothers. Those times when we need a bit of Wisdom in our life situations. With the bringing up of our children, the journey in life with our husbands or even recipes from old to feed our family.

So this Mother’s Day why don’t we make a little note for Mom that says we “Get it Now” and thank you for the Love.

This design if stitched on 28ct over (1) linen thread would fit great in a 5 x 7 frame and comes with a small post card with the same daisy motifs from the design that you can use to give her a Special Heartfelt message.

The design is regularly $12.00 and is on Special while supplies last for $8.00 in the Etsy shop only.

Happy Stitching

Hugs
