ARE YOU A SPRING STITCHER?

March 23, 2022 By Cathy Habermann 2 Comments

Are you a Spring Stitcher?

I think a lot of stitchers work on their pumpkins & ornaments year round…but there seems to be a point in the year – right about now – when we put the snowmen stitches aside for something fresh! Birds, bees (we’re talking stitching remember), blooms…soft pastels or bright take your pick!

I was organizing the HOD model closet & nabbed a few items to give my upstairs decor a little refresh!

(side note here: we’ve had an incredibly dry winter here in NW IA & ever since I put the snowmen away…you guessed it – rain, sleet & snow!) We are grateful for any moisture since we’ve spent quit a few days under red flag warnings for field fires (thank you firemen for protecting us!)

Need some Spring Stitch ideas – discover a new-to-you design or maybe remember one that’s in your stash (time to start on it)!

The Hello Hoop design from the #chalktalk series – Let’s Talk Spring

 

 

Came the Spring – from the House on a Hill series (wool included for finishing) – side panel quote is ‘Came the Spring in all its Splendor’ – this mattress finish pincushion is perfect for the JABC Pin-Mini set.

Present Blessings – I chose this sweet sentiment because of its soft shades – hand dyed buttons are included (chart only (no buttons) is also available as a PDF)

 

 

Bloom from the Chalk Full series – I love the daisies & red ball jar from this fun series – based on the chalk artwork of Priscilla Blain (this entire series is now available as a download on the website)

Oh Bee Hive – say it in your best Austin Powers voice!! I do every time! Woolfelt Hexies are included with this sweet pillow!

 

Oh those sweet Penny Pillows – the flowers of Spring embody Harmony & Prosperity in Garden Duet – the penny’s are included – I love switching out these seasonal smalls!

 

Thank you for taking this Spring Stitching picture walk with me.
