Busy stitching

 Happy Wednesday!

 I made another sample for the "Stitch & Quilt Textile Fragments"

That's what I am calling this new line of a little bit of cross stitching/embroidery and a bit of quilting along with whatever works, HAHA

This sample has the fabrics laid out a bitt different and the Bee and Bee Skep have been embroidered instead of cross stitched.

I am just waiting for the photos to come in and then the kits will be ready!

It is a limited edition since I only purchased so much fabric and all of the extras to go along with it. 

But I am also working on something else...very similar but it will be a 9 x 9 and not a 5 x 7.

It will have stripes, flowers, and a center saying.....

You'll have to wait for more when I can share a picture which should be by the end of the weekend,

 I Hope

Have a good Day or evening depending on when you read this.

Raising and Stitching Chickens!!

 

I have added a couple of oldie designs! to the Etsy shop!

They have been added as PDF's

I forgot all about these 2 Farm Yard Friends.

I made them in 2006.

I know of so many people that are raising chickens.

I thought it would be a good idea to re-release these.

To being self sufficient and healthy 😊💗

Happy Farming and stitching!!

Spring Time Funky Flowers are BACK!!

 

Funky Flowers are BACK In TIME for Spring Planting!!

I am sitting here listening to the birds singing their morning praises!!

It is one of the best sounds to me 💓

ONE of my other favorites are FLOWERS

so I thought I would re-introduce some of my Funky Flowers.

There are 24 of them.

The stitch count is 42 x 70 

If stitched on 28ct linen over (2) or 14ct Aida each would measure 3 x 5

This would fit great in a 4 x 6 frame.

I also have quite a few layouts available

 for you if you would like to stitch 3, 12, or 24 flowers as a group.

Here is a link to the PAGE that has all of the Flowers and Layouts.
