I Am A Child of The King Coming Soon

 

"I Am A Child of The King" coming soon!!! 

Still adjusting a few things, I can't wait to release it. 

It started out by a drawing that I had made for the little girl, 

I wanted only a touch of color. 

I downloaded my drawing and made it into a card 

and decided it would be great as a cross stitch design too. 

Then I Thought hmmmm what about the boys? 

So I got into the pattern program I use, adjusted the girl...

lots of adjusting.....

and then changed lots and made a boy too....

I have not stitched them but I will stitch one for my grand-daughter.....

Watch for the design coming soon!!!

Love you all

Happy Memorial Day and a little Bit of NEWS

 

Happy Friday!!

It's been awhile since I've posted but I have a little bit of time this morning.

I just sent out the newsletter but still wanted to share here too!

I have been busy with Life things....so not much to share for stitching.

I've been trying to think of all the things that need to be done to help

Mom move in with us...

she is 89 and has been living on her own

but the apartment building

 was sold and the increase in rent is way to much

...I am sure lots of you know what that is about :(

And she has so much stuff :(

lots of things to sort, as to what to keep ,

what to get rid of and what to put in storage...

So with that being said my stitching has taken a back seat at the moment.

But hopefuly I can get my time more organized,

and that has always been my problem.

Especially workng for myself with no one to answer to but myself..

...those long conversations with myself

HAHAH :)

I have so many designs ready to go but not enough time to stitch 

so I was thinking of making a Patreon account.

 It's a way to release more designs but not all stitched.

..I guess it would be on the idea on private Stitch A Longs.

Maybe someday soon I can share all of the computer images with you.

But for now.....have a Blessed and Safe Holiday Weekend
