New Design - "Seaside Summer"

Here is your very first sneak peek at a brand new design that is heading off to the framers to make it look even nicer! After the long, cold and snowy winter we just had here in the Midwest, it was a complete joy to design and stitch this design - let me tell you! I'd love to hear your comments - Happy Stitching everyone!

Tribute to Seaside Heights, NJ

I recently received an email from a stitcher named Rose who lives in PA. She said she was stitching my design "Under the Boardwalk" and wanted to know how to go about adding in the words "Seaside Heights, NJ" as she was stitching it for a gift to her husband and he grew up in New Jersey - they were both devastated after Hurricane Sandy tore out the Boardwalk in Seaside Heights then later last year when that fire reduced the newly built boardwalk to ashes. So I re-designed Under The Boardwalk just for Rose and here is the completed design - she just sent a picture if it to me and I love it! So if there is anyone else in New Jersey that wants the specially commissioned chart, please let me know! 

Otherwise we are expecting a freak Spring blizzard tomorrow and Tuesday with a foot of snow - eeeek!

I will also announce the winners of the join my blog contest on Tuesday so be sure to check back!  Thank you to everyone new that joined and to all of my other followers that put out the good words - I appreciate you all!
