It's time for Christmas!

I have just designed the first From the Heart Christmas Ornament.  It will be available to order from your local shops next week. It is stitched on Weeks Dye Works linen fabric with Silk 'N Colors from The Thread Gatherer.   These threads are so beautiful and a joy to stitch with, but if you want to change colors you can pick your favorite red and green Christmas colors and add a gold for the pot and flower centers.

Happy Stitching, Wendy

NEW!

Here is a peek at a new chart that is available now.

This is Folk Art Floral.  It is stitched on linen from Weeks Dye Works. I used beautiful hand dyed threads from The Thread Gatherer.

NEW this Summer!

It's time to update my blog with the new chart pictures.  This summer I released

Newest Designs ~

I haven't taken time to upload pictures of my newest designs. So before I head off to design more, here

are the photos.  This first  one is A Quaker Sampler.

 This next one is called Shabby Roses. The back is really cute too.

 This one is Amish Alphabet.This is th e first circular sampler I have designed. Love how it turned out.

And this one is Blue Bird Pinkeep.

They are all available at your local needlework shops.

Fun Mail Today ~

Look at what fun things I got in the mail today. It's my order of silk threads from Dinky Dyes. They are Hand-dyed Australian Silk threads.  I love stitching with silks and now I have them on hand to begin designing with. 

 

 And I also got the new release threads from Crescent Colours. Both the cottons -

 and the Belle Soie Silks. Oh My Gosh! They are beautiful, not just the colors but they feel so nice. Have I mentioned that I love stitching with silk thread. I am sure you will be seeing these real soon!



Flower Pot Sampler ~

Here it is. My newest cross stitch chart is ready to be released. It should be available to order next week. This was a fun one to stitch. It uses just one color of overdyed floss from Crescent Colours and is stitched on a fun vintage linen from Zweigart, available from Norden Crafts.

Coming Soon ~

I just took a little picture to show you what I've been working on. This new design should be ready to release in a couple of weeks. I love the stitching with all one color of overdyed floss. Watch for the full photo and release date coming soon.
