The Hills and The Lanes Abby Rose has a set of three 'house samplers' - I hadn't paid attention to the fact that we are collecting a year of seasons and holidays, but we are, and they're pretty! The larger samplers (Thistle and Liberty) measure about 147 x 109 - 7 x 10 on 30ct... and they feature charming houses and gardens! Harvest is a little smaller - so make it a companion pin cushion. I love how organized they are... and the colors are bold and really nice. They are worth a look!
Just Saying Just Saying - This is a trio of great little designs - enjoy the little things, today is a Gift & life is beautiful* are the first three - there are 4 charts of 3 patterns each planned so far. Stitched on Picture This Plus's 32ct Wren linen, they are coded for Gentle Art and Weeks flosses and feature Lady Dot trims. Each measures 67 x 67 in size... what a pretty set it's going to become! We're going to begin an auto-ship to collect the other three charts coming in the next three months!
Home Sweet Home What a pretty little piece, this is worked on natural linen (it comes in 28, 32, 36 and 40 so you have options!) with Gentle Art Sampler Threads from your stash. Along with the chart, you get a pretty pearl/crystal decorative pin for your finished cushion, the blue and coffee colored finishing fabric and a super-dusty-deep-blue-grey hand-dyed rayon ribbon for the edging trim. It looks like a medium bright blue in the pic, it is NOT! It is dyed to match GAST's Aged Pewter. The stitching measures approx 4 x 4.
Be Happy! Be so happy that when others look at you, they become happy too! Another cushiony thing with a verse on it -- like Do More of What Makes You Happy... this is kind of cool. Stitch it and tuck it into that growing basket of finished smooshy cushions. You know, the big bowl sitting on your kitchen island that bored hands dig through while they're sitting there chatting with you. (They get to discover this charming collection of misc stitched cushions, all different, all fun... and then they finally get the fact that you STITCH, and they comment about it!!) See... this makes them happy, too!!!
Heart of Hearts This is a charming smaller urn piece -- just a simple design -- 73 x 63 in stitch count. It is worked on 30 ct hand-dyed linen to finish approx 4 x 5 -- so smaller fabric will deliver a smaller finished cushion. It calls for Weeks and Gentle Arts of Charcoal, Faded Rose, Red Rocks, Tin Roof, Olive, Antique Rose and Bull Frog, and is coded for DMC as well. Nothng earth-shattering... just a really pretty little thing, offered as a chart! (Dig out some of your Shepherd's Bush hand-dyed silk ribbon to finish this! If you don't have any, we'll soon have a fresh delivery right after market in a few weeks! Their ribbon would be perfect for this!)
