Hands On Design Oopsies Chart Corrections

Each chart is double checked before it ships out…but every once in a while, my ‘human’ shows. A number gets transposed or left off, symbols get reversed, or I just plain copy/paste incorrectly! I’ll keep this space updated as I hear from stitchers & I thank you for your support & patience!

hd-5 Quilt Squared II – The list of required threads incorrectly states that Ethiopia is #219. It is #231. Cardinal is #219 and is one of the required colors for this design.

hd-17 At the Beach – The fish on the left side is charted to be GAST Geranium but should be WDW Pumpkin.

hd-32 April: Year in Chalk – the stitching instruction lists the correct color, Chalk & Ohio Lemon Pie. Other instruction refers to it as Chalk & Avocado.

hd-77 Block Party – Java – the initial print run left the symbol ‘B’ off of the chart color key for the color WDW Cappucino

To the Beach series: The DMC substitute for GAST Chamomile was listed as 3022. DMC 3045 would be a more suitable substitution, Charts affected:

hd-79 Oh Whale, hd-80 A Little Cottage, hd-87 Adjust your Sail, hd-88 Flock Together, hd-92 On Beach Time

hd-79 Oh Whale – Portabella DMC substitute should be 840

hd-99 Chalkboard Ornaments Part 2 – the 1st printing had the symbols for Geranium (red) and Baby Spinach (green) switched.

hd-100 Hey There Pumpkin – The printer printed the incorrect file for the 1st printing & a few got out. The symbols for the colors did not print correctly. Here is the correct color key.

hd-123 Chalk for the Home: Tulip House – click here for the corrected color key for the smaller Spring design (color key for the larger HOME sampler is correct)

hd-167 A Year of Celebrations – the 1st print run of the charts omitted the 3 GAST colors: Sunflower, Tea Rose & Terra Cotta – AUGUST color Key: the DMC substitution for WDW WaterMelon Punch shows 591 – it should be 891.

hd-179 You Had Me At Flamingo – Cadet & Hibiscus are charted with the same symbol in the 1st print run. Please remember: flamingo pink, flower blue!

hd-167 A Year of Celebrations – Acorns is incorrectly listed as a Weeks Dye Works thread. It is from Gentle Art Sampler Thread

hd-178 WOOF Block Party – the charted dog bones along the bottom border do not match up at the 2 ends as charted. Move 1 side up or down depending on where you start.

hd-197 Flower of Winter – The Symbol used in the words along the side of the pincushion was cut off of the color key. That symbol is for Weeks Dye Works Driftwood.

hd-203 Holly St. Nick – the backstitch branches on the holly sprigs below Santa’s feet were left off. Refer to cover image – use the backstitch sprigs from the top row in 1 strand Gunmetal

hd-204 The Santa Key – the holly leaf & berry  under the ‘m’ in problem should be scooted to the left one stitch – refer to cover photo

hd-205 Well Rounded – correction for the Autumn sampler pinwheel to coordinate with the cover model. Print here for the correction.

SECRET SANTA news: you will line up the sections of the Secret Santa from chart to chart. Charts 1 & 2 have dark lines marking every 10th grid – do not line these up…line up the outside edges. To avoid confusion, I have removed the darker grid lines from future segments. I have taken care to make the width of overall block line-up.

hd-215 Be A Pineapple: a few yellow buds & backstitch branches were left off the Stand Tall tray in the 1st print run. Print here for the correction.

hd-252 – 17th: the JABC pinset is correctly identified as jp222 but is incorrectly labeled ‘Reindeer Games’ – this has been corrected on the 2nd printing.

hd-259 – Home of the Brave: DMC colors listed on the back informational side of the chart are correct & match the colors used for the model. 4 of the DMC colors listed in the Color Key inside the chart are incorrect. Print here for the Color Key update.

hd-289 – A Vintage Stitch – Island Breeze Weeks Dye Works floss is incorrectly identified as Robin’s Egg in the backstitch instruction.

hd-324 – Christmas Folk – a correction for stitches that were omitted on the sleigh. Print here for the correction. Chart was released at the Jingle Ball. It will release after the ‘exclusive’ time period is ended.

I love this part of my job! We were in Ames, IA f I love this part of my job!

We were in Ames, IA for a few days (Special Olympics Summer Games on the IA State campus). On the way home, we stopped at Prairie Rose Needleworks to visit Amanda! She opened her shop a year ago & it was wonderful to see it all in person!!

- love her storefront - great parking with restaurants close by
- I took home several of those nurge hoops
- a great selection of charts and threads
- awesome embroidery kits with books on Sashiko & Kogin
- I spy binders of my designs (I couldn’t help it 🤣)
- there we are…I’m fresh off the tennis court so not loving my hairdo!

It was great to see her again after Nashville Market. Check the shop out if you’re in the area or see her website!
