I love to decorate my home for the holidays. As a young family, I decorated mostly in the fall - lots of spooky things for Halloween, Thankfulness & Gratefulness then carried us through to Christmas & snows of winter! Even as they now come home to celebrate, the decorations still make our home a place for family.

‘17th’ - this Block Party series design is still available through your local or online shop as well as my website (the only place for PDF’s). 

Stitch as the block pincushion or just the side panel for a stunning piece to display.

Just when I thought my batting average was doing p Just when I thought my batting average was doing pretty well...

Night Light NOTE: Cocoa & Grasshopper have identical symbols in the chart. 

The colors (brown & green) are used in distinctly separate areas of the chart & are easily discernible.

My sincere apologies for the charting mishap. 

Buttercup IS mentioned 2x in the color key intentionally.

I enjoyed a little coffee talk with my Ornament Cl I enjoyed a little coffee talk with my Ornament Club Tier 2 Patreon members this morning - a chat about what else goes on at Nashville Needlework Market. 

Grab some stitching and enjoy the video🪡❤️

Final Day of the Nashville Market Road Trip Home: Final Day of the Nashville Market Road Trip Home:

1. Read a book (I am ALL talked out🤣)
2. Keep an eye out on my weather app - we have never not had strange weather experiences on this drive home
3. Smile Bill
4. No, really smile Bill
5. Still working on those road trip snacks 
6. Worked a little on an upcoming design/class. I played with the color swatches before market, just making final decisions 👍🏻

As Bill & I finally hit the road for home, I thoug As Bill & I finally hit the road for home, I thought that I would share a peek around our room at Nashville Needlework Market ❤️

Thank you to the shops that came & continue to support my design work as well as the fabric & thread dyers (& those that cut amazing shapes from wood 😉) that I am fortunate to work alongside. 

A big thank you to Yarn Tree for once again hosting Market!

I can’t believe that I finally get to share this s I can’t believe that I finally get to share this special project❤️ - the mystery market release is revealed!

‘I’m New Here’ - not just a baby sampler, we’re calling it a Baby Story - a sweet saying that I was inspired to write not long after we found out that we were going to be grandparents! 

The small ornament is perfect for the newly born- I’ve included alternative skin tone palettes for those tiny tootsies as well as an alphabet and numbers for personalization. 

Many thanks to @chantelles141 for working behind the scenes with me to create the Baby on Board finishing boards. The DMC palette is also easy to customize. 

We did not share any of the design details before market and asked shops to ‘do their thing’ - a great many came home with charts for you!! We thank them for their support!
