New Arrivals from Annie Beez Folk Art
- Harvest Moon - What a grand house! Looks patriotic... but looks spooky at the same time, but then kind of cheerful because of the pumpkins outside! Stitched on 36ct linen with Gentle Art Sampler Threads, it measures 172 x 187 - and will finish about 9-1/2 x 10 on 36ct. I think it'd be fun to use some lighter thread in that moon and make a man-in-the-moon face on it!
- In the Pumpkin Patch - This is 5 x 5 piece that is stitched on Weeks Sanguine Linen - so you can tell the picture is REALLY dark and not true in color. Thread colors are Dark Chocolate, Nutmeg, Pumpkin Pie, Gold Leaf, Brandy, Chamomile, Endive, Piney Woods and Cast Iron Skillet. It's a cute little piece!

The Pear Collection
Anjou, Redwork, Bluework and Spring Green Pears
We're up to 4 sets of little stitched pears now by Annie Beez. These are delightful! All the same size - within 10 stitches of each other - one side of three is stitched on each, and your charming fabric choices decorate the 'other sides.'
Rimmed with a little stick stem and tiny wool leaves, each is constructed and then the seams are decorated with herringbone stitches done with pearl cotton. Choose your fabrics, change you colors if need be... whatever you want. The Jury is out on which one of these is the favorite combination - but the new green Springtime set is just gorgeous!

12 Days of Christmas Stockings by Annie Beez
A charming collection of 12 miniature stockings to celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas... these are done on 14ct Charcoal! (Actually I think she's got them on black... but if you can't tolerate that deep color - the charcoal/chalkboard is so much easier to see and looks just as good!)
All 12 designs are in the 16-page book along with the finishing instructions too! All DMC too... that red and white trim is cute on there too - makes them pop on the tree.

Let's Go Sledding, Bloomin' Bunnies Trio and Channing Street Sampler
- Let's Go Sledding - Isn't this a cute set of ornaments? All red, white, and black, they are stitched on 14ct brown perforated paper and attached to the tiny wooden sleds we sell so many of! Stitch count for each is a mere 17 x 31 - so you know they work up in a jiff. We have a baker's Dozen on those sleds, and all 12 designs are included in this pack.
- Bloomin' Bunnies Trio - All three charts are included in this pack.. and actually I think that BLOOM would be cute stitched and mounted to the backs of lots of pin cushions! Bunny is cute, she'd look good stitched with a little Gentle Art Simply Wool!
- Channing Street Sampler - An original piece, this is dedicated to Annie's late husband who she lost in 2021. The story inside the chart makes you cry... they lived on Channing Street for 30 years, raised their family there - complete with all those dogs, cats and chickens running around in the yard. Coded for DMC it finishes approx 9 x 11 on 36ct. It's a lovely piece.

New Arrivals!
- Good Shepherd Sampler - This is a pretty little sampler - very neat and tidy, balanced and organized. The trees and the house are patterned, and then more 'lines for your eye to follow' are the rows of sheep and the fence. Measuring 145 x 141, it will finish approx 8 x 8 on 36ct. Coded for DMC or silks, this would make a really nice housewarming gift, and it would look good in an entry area.
- Welcome to our Patch - Here's a bright pile of quilted pumpkins. I might leave off the 1821, because I want my greeting to you to be more recent than 1821... but that's easy to fix! Needs to be stitched for the addicted quilter friend who doesn't have time to stitch this herself! OR... you could stitch all the pumpkin part, and give her that... because she can sew and she'd make a sewing pouch out of it! Coded for DMC, it finishes about 5 x 6 on 18/36ct.
- You Melt My heart - OH... find a pretty frosty blue, or deep dark night sky fabric for this - get all the white to really pop on this. I think I'd even add opalescent thread! A cute little design for Winter - display it after Christmas and going into Valentine's Day, because as we know, there still can be lots of snow around on Valentine's Day! Coded for DMC, measures 80 x 106.

Hop To It! and Pumpkin Folk
A pair of seasonal designs - both presented as charts, they are coded to DMC.
- Hop To It! Worked on 32ct Star Sapphire. This would be lovely done with Gentle Art's Simply Wool... just 8 colors of pretty pinks and greens with white tossed it. Lady Dot's Ballerina Pink hand-dyed chenille trim is featured.
- Pumpkin Folk has kind of a Pennsylvania Dutch personality to it - the quilt blocks and the pretty star vine across the top. Finishing about 8 x 9 on 32ct, it's full of regular, pretty DMC. We're used to seeing so much hand-dyed but this is all solids!
|
Gatherings
A pair of Autumn and Christmassy designs... each of these finishes 6-1/2 square on 28ct. Choose whatever fabrics you like best; each is coded to DMC or hand-dyeds.
Actually, I see lots of individual motifs in these... might be really pretty just to stitch them all individually and then make each into a cushion to tuck on a bowl!

Stars & Stripes Forever and American Sampler House
Here are two pieces that just might get you into the mood for the 4th Of July! By Annie Beez, they both feature cool house and neat billowing flags... I like them both!
- Stars and Stripes Forever has a lot of quilt motifs in it, it uses gorgeous shades of Light Khaki, Cayenne, Whiskey, Roasted Figs, Dublin Bay. Deep Sea, Pine Needles, Lucky and Straw. A mixture of hand-dyeds, it has softer colors than the American Sampler House, and finishes approx 5-1/2 x 8 on 32ct Country Vintage Mocha Linen.
- American Sampler House is full of brighter traditional colors of Ecru, Wrought Iron, Jay Bird, Blue Suede, Blue Jeans and Cayenne. It's worked on a light blue background and finishes abut 5-1/2 x 6-1/2.
|
Garden Fair and Time to Bloom
- Garden Fair - Just a sweet piece that is done with hand-dyed flosses on a creamy background. Stitch count is 138 x 99 - so actually kind of large in size - 7 x 10 on 14ct!
- Time to Bloom is coded for brighter colors of DMC floss. Really really cute for a little girl's bedroom... it's a petite 75 x 45 in size... a cute doorknob or dresser hanger!
|
First Snow
A sweet little ornament-pin cushion size, it's only 72 x 74 in stitch count.
Work it in DMC - black, white, brown, green and a little carrot color - and you're all set. You can use the snowballs to spell SNOW, or make more little faces and change them a little - pretty cute!

Pumpkin Patch and Country Christmas Ornaments
- Pumpkin Patch - This is a fun color rendition for fall pumpkins! Kind of looks like that striped one just 'broke out' from the patch! Measuring only 77 x 55, it's about 3 x 5 on 32ct, and is stitched with just 5 shades of DMC. Even though it's just regular Cross Stitch, I think it would look really good to do Smyrna Crosses over 4 in those black bands and for the black dots on the orange pumpkin. It'd give a lot of unexpected texture. The finished wooden pumpkin piece it is mounted on came from Hobby Lobby.
- Country Christmas Ornaments - This is a set of 14 ornament designs presented across three separate charts. They are all the same size - 44 x 40 - so will finish 2 x 2 on 40ct, or 3 x 3 on 14/28! Choose a fabric you like; these are worked on a natural color. Each is embellished with clay buttons on their corners. They're all different, and use bells, peppermints, snowflakes, hearts, stars, cardinals, holly... really any clay buttons from Just Another Button Company that accent and enhance the colors in each ornament. (Buttons all run around $2.50 each... available separately, just let us know if you want some!) The ornaments are finished flat, so you COULD use perf paper, you COULD finish with a color of felt behind the stitching that matches your buttons, and then use the final backing color (in this case -black.) You COULD make each set into a little stand-up cube with stitching on each side!

The Haynes Sampler
Annie Beez Folk Art has several new releases; this is just one of them - scroll down to visit the rest! This one follows a 'Family Established' theme... *The Lord made the family and in it he dwells.* Annie did this for her daughter's growing family - the 'Mom and Pop' are on there, complete with a couple of kids, a cow, the bees, a little goat and the family homestead.
The cool double row of roses could be the area where you add some family initials, there is a lot of possibility with this! Coded for silks or DMC, it finishes a generous 13 x 15 on 32ct, so it'll make a great presentation on the household walls!
|
Little Pink Houses This one is pretty against that medium-shaded grey/blue background - the Roasted Marshmallow whitework really shows up! This is a neat piece because you can make a pin cushion out of that big red heart... do a single house, or make a long cushion or roll out of that pretty bottom band area. The way the design works, it'd even be a pretty drum as the baskets on the end would join together.
Clover, Currant, Roasted Marshmallow, Rose Garden, Barn Grey, Onyx, and Cameo Pink hand-dyed cotton flosses, this finishes approx 8 x 4... so that little drum piece would be a DINKY 2-1/2 inches around by only about 1-1/2 inches high! Too cute!

Bunny and Bee and Threadneedle Street
- Bunny and Bee - Here's a fun alphabet scattered around that pretty floral vine, and the bee hives. Stitched with hand-dyed flosses, it's hard to tell from the picture but there are Quaker motifs scattered all around the background - stitched with Weeks Light Khaki floss. I am thinking you want to switch that color if you are not working on the Flax color it calls for... you want that tone-on-tone flavor that doesn't compete with the rest of the design. Very cute, the bunny would be fun stitched with Gentle Art's Simply Wool, and the tiny bees - which are only one stitch - would be fun done as beads! Finishes approx 12 x 5-1/2 on 32ct.
- Threadneedle Street - *We don't say goodnight till our stitching's complete, that's how we roll here on Threadneedle Street.* It probably wouldn't be fun to live in a house with gingham windows but wouldn't it be fun to have a fence made out of giant spools? I kind of like that big tomato 'fountain' yard accent too! This fun piece finishes approx 11 x 4 on 18/36ct, and is stitched with Weeks Dye Works hand-dyed flosses.
|
Sunshine
Annie Beez has new and very seasonal designs that will appeal to that love of Autumn Color that will be here before we know it!
Sunshine is stitched on a deep, mangy shaded gray linen... but might be pretty on a browner tone as well. The sunflowers are done with DMC 727, 729 and 743 - so they are bright and bold, and they can handle the deep fabric colors. Greens are 730 and 733, so they pucker too! Finishes approx 4-1/2 inches square.

Widow's Walk from Annie Beez Folk Art
*Waves upon the rolling sea, bring my love back to me.* What a charming little 6 x 7 seaside piece this is! Stitched on 32ct Stormy Night hand-dyed linen by Picture This Plus, I love that huge whale in the water!!!
Presented as a chart, this calls for some hand-dyeds as well as several regular DMC flosses. If you are lucky enough to have a beach or house... it needs this!

- Count Your Blessings
This is a sweet design by Annie Beez Folk Art... it looks like a normal sampler, till you look it over... it's full of rabbits! I'm counting 12 on here! It would be cute as a nursery or young child's piece -- you could do a 'family tree' of everyone's birthdays on here... it'd be fun finished as a pillow. It's kind of big (165 x 116)... but it'd be a fun thing for a young stitcher to do, as well -- maybe with a little help from you! Cute colors, whimsical design, an easy chart... DMC or hand-dyeds are featured.
- Thankful Pumpkins
Give Thanks -- Stitch this 73 x 63 design, it'll finish just 3-1/2 x 4-1/2, and maybe finish it as a block stand-up instead of the fussy framing shown on the cover. It's a cute design, just needs to be toned down a little! A pin cushion pillow tucked among a few faux pumpkins would be nice, as well. Charted, it uses 7 different hand-dyeds and is actually worked on Antique white linen which you get to tea-stain per the chart instructions!
