I have an OOPSIE page on this website. I really dislike that I even have such a page… that I have to tell you that it exists…that I have to update it occasionally…and that it probably doesn’t even have ALL of the oopsies on it!! But, now that you know about it’s existence, I need
THANK YOU – FINISHING PICTURE WALK
Hey there! I have had such a great response to my complimentary design ‘Thank You’ & how I finished it, I thought that I would publish a little picture walk of the process! This isn’t a true finishing tutorial because, truth be told, I had a vision for the finish and quite frankly, I figured
#BEWELLANDSTITCH – CHOOSE HAPPY
Choose Happy Sometimes, it is a conscious choice to be happy & now, more than ever, we might just have to say these words out loud…’I choose happy’. A conversation among a group of designers has come together as a tiny but mighty movement to create a project of free designs for stitchers. Imagine
THANK YOU
Thank You – a complimentary design These 2 words pack a lot: they are strong, they are healing, they are kind, they mean so much. I thank you for your support of my designs, your friendship & the kind words and messages that you send. They mean the world to me. Thank you from both
MEANT TO BEE
Meant to Bee It feels like just yesterday when I was sharing ‘Love is Kind’ for our 31st Anniversary & we are about to arrive at our 32nd year as Mr. & Mrs. HOD 😉 We often talk about the good old days when we first met & started dating. Of course you always think

Fall is for teaching…well realistically, I teach other months as well (March to October), but there is something about the Fall – the school supplies back in the stores, the crisp air, or pumpkin spice everything! This past September I had the chance to teach at both Needlework Galleria – a true experience for
NEEDLE’S DANCE
Needle’s Dance Late last summer, 3 designers put their collaborative heads together (quite a feat since we live in 3 separate time zones!) to create a class for the 2019 Nashville Needlework Market: Stand Out With Exclusives Through much discussion, we realized that all 3 of us had participated in several different ‘exclusive’ programs throughout
LOVE IS KIND
Love is Kind Here we are at another wedding Anniversary. I based this year’s complimentary design on what is, I assume, a popular wedding verse from 1 Corinthians: ‘Love is Patient, Love is Kind…’. It was one of the verses that Bill & I chose for our ceremony 31 years ago. This past Sunday, as
A YEAR OF CELEBRATIONS
2013…a pretty big year for me! My ‘baby’ was graduating High School and heading off to a new chapter. We were looking at our empty nest. I was building a new business in an already 15 year career in the needlework industry. Cross Stitch & Needlework magazine came along & asked me to design a
STITCHING – THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE
I speak English. Just English. (Here’s where my mom interjects that I did take Spanish in HS…umm – yes…38+ year’s ago!) Anyway – back to the English.
