Christmas in July Sale on Etsy...and new members

I have posted a a small Christmas in July Sale on a pack of 4 charts. Here is the link to Esty 
We also had some crazy weather go by here the other day and a friend of ours that hatches chickens was in
need of electricity for her chick incubator. So we offered our porch and electrical outlet for her. We had a baby chick hatch yesterday afternoon. Oh it is so cute and I video taped it hatching. Here is a pic of Bob and as I have been sitting here typing we have another. I ran to take her pic to add to this post.

Summer Kits

Good day 

I have some kits available for your stitching pleasure. 

I just love sheep and I have the Crazy mini quilt sheep available. This pack has enough material to make 2 of these adorable mini quilts. They measure 2 ½ x 3 ½ and are the perfect size for ATC cards (Artist Trading Cards). 

*********************************************************

The next one is " Directions, cross stitch charts and Finishing Kit for "Spring Bunny" or "Wool Lamb"

I have added to this "Parkit" the cross stitch chart for the bunny and also the little lamb. 

****************************************************

Next is the "Lamb by the Bay Cross Stitch design and Faux Finish Wool Plank "

I have included the design that can either be stitched facing left or right and you can either stitch the lamb in white or black. 

 

*****************************************************

And dont forget the "Americana Door Printed Embroidery Kit"

And the "Arbor Door Printed Embroidery Kit"

Check out my Etsy shop for more info on these kits and have a great day. Also the newsletters are going out today so watch for them :)

Crazy mini quilts in wool available

I have some crazy mini wool quilts available on Etsy. These are my "Parkits" short for partial kits :)
I only have 8 available at the moment. These are limited to the amount of sheep that I had printed. They are perfect for summer. Small project to get done in a short amount of time and not to big to carry along.
I hope you enjoyed your weekend. I am off to stitch more and will talk to you again soon. Check these out on Etsy with more info there.

I just finished this crochet edge. I took the mini quilt with the 2 grommets that had a hanger , took the rope out, then I took my #7 crochet hook along with some Valdani perle cotton and made a crochet edge of 3 double crochets in a buttonhole stitch then a slip stitch in the next buttonhole stitch. I followed this pattern all around. It was very tight and I had to take a break my fingers fell asleep a few times but I love the look. Since I had the grommets still there I covered them some old buttons that I found in my jar along with strong glue. I then glued it down on the cover of a journal that I have been writing some poems and prayers in.
I am very happy with it and thought I would share.
Have a good night
