My Santa ornament in the new issue of Just Cross Stitch magazine!

I was excited to get my new copy of Just Cross Stitch magazine in the mail yesterday and flipped it open to the Table of Contents and discovered my Santa Squared Christmas ornament design featured on page 33, not to mention the picture of it that also showed up in the table of contents! It's a fun and whimsical design so why not pick up your copy of the magazine today!

Stepping out of my comfort zone!

So those of you who have bought my designs before are familiar with my "style" of cross stitch designing - fun, bright, and all those things! Now I am trying something new (in addition to my regular style of designing that you all love)...I'm talking about reproduction samplers! I have recently purchased 3 different samplers in on-line auctions. All 3 designs are by different people, all were stitched sometime in the mid to late 1800's and all caught my eye at first glance. I hope you will all join my journey into doing some of the beautiful samplers as I re-chart and stitch each one to release at Nashville Market next February...here's a little taste of my first design - I hope you like it and the other two which will follow. Happy Stitching!
