May is on the way...

This spring is just "springing" on by. Summer will be here before we know it. Maybe now would be a good time to pick out a new project to work on once the summer heat hits. Take a look below at some new designs that will be arriving soon. A new project could be on the way.

On the way...

Good morning! I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend. I most certainly did. The weather was beautiful and I actually had a chance to go out and enjoy it. Of course, I also found some time for stitching even if I didn't accomplish much. 

Take a look at some new designs that will be arriving soon. I actually found more to show than last week....yeah!!!

From Abby Rose Designs

I like this little patriotic pillow but I think I would adjust the colors a little. 

Sweet Land of Liberty

From From the Heart

A wonderful Mother's Day idea.

For My Mother

From Tempting Tangles

I absolutely love the colors in the "Twilight" piece. This only makes sense because I'm much more of a "twilight" person than a "daybreak" one.

Daybreak Star Bright

Twilight Star Light

From Imaginating

Let the harvesting begin!

Let's Tractor

From Heart in Hand

Four very different but quick to stitch designs.

Two new designs in the "To the Beach" series. 

To the Beach : Flock Together

To the Beach: Adjust Your Sails

From Designs by Lisa

Purr..fect design for cat lovers everywhere. If you change the border and heart color (orange, perhaps), it would make a cute Halloween piece. 

Black Cat Society

From Mirabilia

Love, love, love this design. I have already stitched two mermaids and thought that was enough but I might have to reconsider that thought. 

Aphrodite Mermaid

From Ship's Manor

Christmas and Halloween combined. I like both pieces but the "witch" is my favorite. 

Jolly Witch

From Barbara Ana Designs

A cheerful and lively story told in 5 stitched episodes. It starts in a witches' village, followed by a scene in the prairie, a walk in the wood, a trip to town, and last but not least, a voyage at sea. Each new part will be released monthly so you can stitch a piece at a time and assemble the parts as shown in the framed picture. Each piece is stitched separately on a different color of linen using the same DMC colors in all parts. Part 1 - The Night Of All Fears is shown below.

Good morning. I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Even though it was a little cooler and breezier, I thought the weather was wonderful. I enjoyed being outside. Of course, I also spent time inside (cleaning, laundry, etc.). I was even able to find time on Saturday for some stitching (yeah!!). 

Here are some new designs that will be arriving soon.
