October isn’t going to stick around long either at this rate! Our house has once again turned into a factory of charts, kits, boxes, trunk shows, new releases, and finishing jobs! The dog is already nervous because she knows what those stacks of boxes means! Next Wednesday I leave on a fun journey! All the
The end of the Celebration!
The November issue of Cross Stitch & Needlework magazine is out and with it comes the final two pieces of my Year of Celebrations series. I have said before that my actual participation – designing & stitching – has been done for awhile, but I have enjoyed the pictures & emails that I have been
Happy Labor Day!
So many kids around the country head back to school tomorrow, but here in the Midwest, in homage to harvest season, our local kids have been back for several weeks now. The big yellow busses have been dieseling their way through the neighborhood and when the wind blows the right way, I hear the horn
Home Again, Home Again…
I’m so confused as to what day it is! We drove home from St. Charles Needlework Market on Monday & it’s already Thursday…wow, where is this week going & could we skip Monday every week??? Before I get into Market “things”…here is my tribute to #TBT. I don’t have many pics of myself as a
August Ramblings in a Pre-Market Haze
Early tomorrow morning, the car gets packed up as if I was filling a dorm room…to the gills! But…I’m not heading to college…I’m heading to market. Last Sunday night, I was sitting in the deck with DH and I said “you know, a week from now, it will all be over!”. 6 months of work
A Year of Celebrations
The Year is quickly coming to a close! Hard to believe, but true – the 5th installment of the series is in the September 2014 issue. My involvement with the series has been much longer than a year, and I have to say, I was more than a little sad when I shipped off the
Finish It Friday – thanks to Cherished Stitches!
Thanks to the wonders of Social Media, I have gotten to know a lot of my fellow designers in the counted thread industry. Yes, we meet up at markets, but sometimes…there’s work to be done at those shows & you just can’t meet everyone! Fortunately, I get to know designers on a whole other level…I
It’s Been a Great Week!
I’ve got winners! Thank you to everyone who responded to my At the Beach contest – may this summer find you at the beach – or at least at the place that makes you happy! I had entries come in through email as well as the blog (blogger glitch…) so we put everyone’s name on
At the Beach – Contest Time!
It’s time for a New Release…and a contest! I know it’s summer & it’s beach time…but I really think this one could stay up all year round. In fact, my husband asked me to stitch this one up again (this one travels in trunk shows!) so we could hang it in a bathroom we have
It’s All A Process
I am basically an in box/out box kind of person. A list maker & a list scratcher-off-er. How did I end up in a business where everything is a process? My husband’s favorite line for me is “It’s all a process dear.” Year’s ago when I opened my needlework shop and wanted everything done RIGHT
