Busy as a bee.....

January 15, 2011

BIG Time updating going on tonight! LOL
I can't believe I've let 7 months slip by again. I guess I have to wait until I'm ready to let everything pour out at once.
Anyway, I hope every one's holiday's were wonderful and a Happy and Prosperous New Year to all!

So, here we go....I'll try to take a breath in here once in a while for all your sakes.....




This first picture is of a carrying case I designed for my Ott Light. It opens from the top and there's a pocket on the front of the bag to hold a handy dandy extension cord!





This piece is by Glendon Place and stitched on an unknown piece of fabric I picked up at the Celebration Of Needlework Convention one year. The fibers are Weeks Dye Work and the beads, (which are hard to see but sparkle like crazy!) are Mill Hill. This was a birthday gift for my niece Lauren.



This stocking was my very first design! . I designed it using PC Stitch 9 and it's for my youngest grandson.



This is a Sweetheart Tree Biscornu.


Christmas Tree Name design by Nouveau Encore for Benjamin

This is a Sampler in a Year 2000 by Linda Driscoll. I finally got the courage to stitch it and it was wonderful! The specialty stitches were a challenge but a pure joy. My spin on it was to stitch it in a green fiber. The original was white on white, and while beautiful, I was not putting all that work in to have to be on top of it to see it. LOL


 Blue Ribbon Designs, (thanks for the info Shannon!).  I used premium fibers by Vicki Clayton.


Now, this one I know!
Lizzie Kate's ABC"S of Life Lessons. I stitched it on 28 count Jobelene with the fibers that were supplied in the packet. Gee, where did my "Spin" go on this one?
