Fun Finishing!

In the spring of 2012 I visited North Carolina where we had a great time stitching Flower Diamonds. We had lots of fun with this project, with several stitchers making changes of threads, beads, ribbons, and/or stitches. So last week when I received this photo of a finished project I was just thrilled!!  My original piece is finished as a neck roll.....but what a great idea is this?!......a tote bag for stitching projects.  And the flowers are wonderful!

Sally, thank you for sharing your wonderful project.

FYI  This design has been retired, but is still available as a marked canvas and instruction book kit....no thread/ribbon/bead kit available.

Wild Roses Kits

Wild Roses Oval Box Kits are now available, with or without the thread/ribbon kits.  I will be making up several thread/ribbon kits within the next 3 weeks with an estimated shipping date of July 8th.  Please reserve yours as soon as possible as there will be a limited number available.  Click here for the Wild Roses page 

Wild Roses Oval Box

In my last entry I was preparing to teach my new guild class featuring Leslie Riley's Transfer Artist Paper, a Ginkgo leaf and a California Poppy.  Well the class was this past Monday night and I'm happy to say everything went well!  Everyone in the class transferred two designs onto separate canvases, and all the transferred designs came out perfect and ready for stitching. 

It is exciting to think of all the possibilities.  I am looking forward to experimenting further.  

But as indicated by the title of this entry I am retiring the Wild Roses Oval Box from my teaching portfolio and will be adding it to Designs and Kits for sale on June 15th.   I will also make up a few thread kits at the same time. 

My last item for today is to let you know I will be removing Moroccan Sands from my Teaching Portfolio for about two years as it has just been chosen to be an upcoming ANG Cyber Workshop.  It will be awhile as it is scheduled for late 2011.  After the Cyber Workshop has concluded it will be moved to Designs and Kits for sale. 

Wishing all of you a happy Mother's Day and time to stitch!
