grandmakringles : The Silver Needle, Fine Needlecraft Materials


Rabbit's Spring Arrival A cute bunny head poking up through the Spring flowers... this little guy wouldn't last long in my backyard! With a stitch count of 55 x 62, stitch him on just about anything 28ct, and he'll finish approx 4-1/4 inches square. Offered as the chart, it calls for a few over-dyed flosses from your stash.
Snow Place Like Home What a festive Holiday House inside a snowy glass globe! Grandma Kringle's newest pattern features a winter scene stitched over one thread surrounded by holly and a border over two. Stitched on 28ct Natural with regular DMC flosses it finishes approx 4 x 4-1/2 and is as charming as can be. The red polka dot base reminds me of the dancing mushrooms in Fantasia! Offered as a chart.
Kringle's Hot Chocolate Stitched on the new Gingerbread hand-dyed linen by Picture This Plus, the stitch count is 130 x 160 and it is worked in just 5 colors of regular DMC floss. The Gingerbread fabric comes in 14 and 18ct Aida, as well as 28 and 32ct linen, so whichever fabric count you like best... your Hot Chocolate ad will be charming! Make sure to change the 1866 date on there to YOUR 'family established' date! Wouldn't JABCO peppermint buttons be cute on this, or some holly leaves? Or some red and green Mill Hill beads for the sprinkles?
All is Calm Oh, a pretty piece, this is worked with Gold Leaf, Toasted Barley, Cranberry, Roasted Marshmallow, Curry, Onyx, Mascara, and Weeping Willow hand-dyed flosses on a deep 30ct Chestnut hand-dyed linen. VERY rich, deep colors in the peaceful little pic. Offered as the chart, it finishes approx 4 x 4. She has her snowflakes over one, and the pine greenery is simple straight stitching.
