New Stuff

As Promised, here are the two new pieces that I've released.  The automatic shipments went out on Monday, so hopefully they will be in local shops by tomorrow...fingers crossed!!!



This first one is "Autumn Sewing Book"  and is stitched on  vintage Exampler from Lakeside Linen  using overdyed cotton threads from Crescent Colours and Weeks Dye Works. 
The books may be a little hard to find...try Michael's or Hobby Lobby...but will work equally well on a small rectangular paper mache box.

It's a quick stitch and was a lot of fun to design as fall seems to be my favorite season!!!!


This second piece......"Hallow Wee House"....is a complete kit using lakeside linen and silk threads and is a sweet little piece that can be made into a pin keep, ornament or put in a small frame.  This one is Chessa's favorite ......I'm sure it's because of the cat!!!!

The weather is really starting to feel like FALL today.....and I can hardly wait to get my pumpkins out on my porch and fill the house with fall decor.  Hopefully, I'll be able to accomplish that this week, before leaving for the Shepherds' Bush Retreat.  I'm really looking forward to fall in the Utah mountains.....it's an absolutely spectacular time of year there!!!!!
Hope to see many of you at the retreat and for those of you who couldn't make it, I'll try to take a bunch of pictures, so I can fill you in on my return.

Until then......dig out your fall stitching and get inspired !!!!!
