September & October are just busy months…it never fails. Even as my kids have become adults, they still keep their Dad & I busy. That’s why it was great to have a little oasis of fun a few weeks ago! St. Charles, MO & Needlework Galleria. I hopped in the car (filled to the brim with
Roll With It!
If you follow me on any sort of social media then you know about the many things that inspire me & my designs: colors, ribbons (ooh rick rack) & all sorts of embellishments…like…buttons! When I learned that my friends from Just Another Button Company were starting a subscription Button Lover’s Club…I was determined to become the 1st
39
A few weeks ago, I got sucked into one of those crazy Facebook tests … ‘how many states have you been to?’ My answer at the time was 38 … & I’m proud to say, it’s now 39! Last week I traveled to Cheyenne, WY to teach at my friend Penny’s shop, Ewe Count. This
Just in case you think I’ve been slackin’…
Thought I would take a moment to play catch up, but first! A sneaky peek ahead to one of the next To the Beach releases! I won’t ‘weigh’ you down with titles just yet!! Read to the end – I promised I would give stitch counts for the series to help those stitching all 12

A Big Day at Our House
There are 2 ‘anniversaries’ of sorts today at Haber-house! First, my youngest (my baby), turns 21! Bill & I spent time looking back at old photographs yesterday, so you can imagine a lot of laughs at good memories & of course Kleenex too. A new item on the ‘to-do’ list…scan all of those old photos into

A whole latte like …
You have no idea how many bad coffee jokes we have been making around this house with the release of the 3rd Block Party – JAVA. As with all of the Block Party pincushions – no 2 sides are alike (that would be boring). This, however makes it really difficult to photograph for the cover
What A Year!
It has been an eventful year for Hands On Design. As I think about it, I realize that I get to stitch, work & play with some pretty amazing friends. Part of our stitching group – we still gather when possible. We stitch, talk, listen & basically solve the world’s problems. Sadly, we had to
