It's good to be back home!

Since our kids had a couple of in service days off school last week, we took them to Disneyland then Huntington Beach, California where we walked a WHOLE lot,  rode some crazy rides (can we say Tower of Terror - which isn't named that just for fun let me tell you!!!), and splashed in the ocean - nothing like a nice 5 foot wave washing over your head to deposit some sand in places where it doesn't belong!!!! Happy stitching - here are some vacation pics I want to share....

Sneak Peek & Contest!

Here is a preview of another new Christmas design coming out in a couple of weeks called "DON'T STOP BELIEVING" because I think we all carry a little piece of Santa in our hearts all year long!  Here's the contest part - just blog about Pickle Barrel Designs and my freebie chart giveaway and 2 lucky winners will each receive this brand new design - just have new stitching pals join my blog and make sure they leave their name and how they like this new design in my "comments" section! I'll announce the winners around Halloween!

New Release! "I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS"

Another day, another new design!  This delightful Christmas design whispers the joy of the season and that no matter where you are in the world at Christmas time, your heart will always remain at home. This chart should be available next week for your LNS to order in for you - the best part is that it's a fast and easy stitch!
