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!

"CHRISTMAS HODGEPODGE" - New!

Thank you to everyone that submitted ideas for names for this Christmas Sampler and in the end "CalamityJR" came up with the winning title of "Christmas Hodgepodge"! The design will be available for your local needlework store to order within the next week!

Election choices anyone?

Well then! Looks like our US Presidential Election is in its final stages (thank goodness because quite frankly I am sooooo sick of all these rude and obnoxious ads on TV) - so here are the 2 choices - may the best one win!
