New Cuteness by Dirty Annie's - due in the shop late August Boo and Hazel - Annie's 3rd little famous couple - we already have Santa and Mrs and Sam and Betsy. These two follow the same design format - they're kind of cut-off, so they appear to nestle side-by-side. It makes for a cute finishing suggestion. Coded for DMC, full color leaflet runs $15.00. Henny Penny Minis - I'm not sure where you'll use these, but I think these are darling! Wouldn't they make cute plant pokes? Or what about these shaped cushions just tucked here and there in your bowl of other stitched cushions? They finish about 3 or 4 inches each... all are included in the leaflet which runs $17.00
Sam and Betsy Dirty Annie's newest release, it's the Couple-of-the-Season (even though I think they were both married to someone else!). Cute as can be, they are companions to Mr and Mrs Claus. She has these two coded for DMC TWO ways - brighter colors and more dusty primitives - both options are pictured on the back cover with the thread listings.
Santa and Rudolph - This is a pretty pair of Santa and Rudolph. The charts are kind of intense - as there are a lot of color changes, but they finish only 4-1/2 x 5-1/2, so not too much torture! Cute finishing, these would make neat side-by-side pin cushions too. Both charts in the leaflet for $14.00
So Stinkin' Cute So Stinkin' Cute - This IS! The chart includes all three designs... the single skunk, the loving pair and the cute 16-patch block full of skunks and the flowers they love!
Hissing Booth and Kissing Booth Dirty Annie is Getting Us Ready for Valentine's Day! Here is a pair of designs that will be darling perched on your kitchen counter! Hissing - for the cat-lovers, and Kissing - for the doggy lovers... they come as separate charts. Choose any fabric you like, they measure 53 x 53 in stitch count and are worked with Weeks and Classic Hand-dyeds. Kitty is NOT accepting kisses from strangers, and Puppy is ready to lick and love on everyone!
Santa Claws, Santa Paws and Country Christmas A trio of fun little Christmas ornaments by Dirty Annie's will help you decorate for the holidays in style! Goodness knows those little furry creatures we love need recognition on the tree! Each Paws and Claws measure about 4 x 4 when finished... coded for DMC. Each of the single charts comes with a charm (Paws has a bone, and Claws has a fish skeleton and mouse.) Country Christmas is just cute for anyone who wears/loves boots! Tone down the stripes if need be... or stitch 'em to match that favorite pair of boots. Each comes as its own single chart.
On the Way from Dirty Annie's Dachshund Through the Snow Oh my gosh this is darling! Stitched on Mint Splash 32ct Lugana, this little guy is the happiest! What a fun wintertime decoration. He measures 143 x 138 - so finishes abut 9 x 9, and is stitched with a medley of Classic and Weeks hand-dyeds. So many of the sky blue hand-dyeds would work for this, as we LOVE LOVE Crossed Wing's Snow Squall Linen - it has white spots that actually do look like snowflakes. Gorgeous fabric choices in multiple counts.
Quite a mixture of looks to Dirty Annie's new releases! Got to keep that open mind! Deja Poo - Something silly for help in dealing with less-than-accurate informational circumstances.70 x 70 - about 4 inches on 32. Deja Poo is presented as a small chart... and they even supply the source for that darling dictionary fabric they've used in the finishing! Morticia's Second Line - Funeral processions are famous celebrations of past and future life in New Orleans... this one finishes a whopping 12-1/2 x almost 11 on 32ct! We lots of hand-dyed fabrics in this shade - all counts! There is a lot going on in here... you either like it or you don't... no judgements! Catcus - Oh this is for you cat-people! That little guy in the middle is so cute... is he trying to hide by faking spikes? Catcus is a small chart, and it finishes about 5 x 7. It's actually done on Weeks Morris Blue, but looks greener in the pics. I think you can use most any fabric you like for this one! Ya'll Ain't Right - They say that around here... it's the funniest saying... because they're usually laughing hard when you hear it! 80 x 80... Measures inches n 32ct.
Peppermint Bark and OMG Tree Here are two smaller designs by Dirty Annie's that will make fun ornaments for your Christmas tree! Peppermint Bark uses just 3 colors - choose the hand-dyeds called for or red, white and green from your stash... it measures 84 stitches square. On 40 over one - 2 inches, 36 over two - 4-1/2, 14ct - it'll be 6 x 6... so choose a fabric you like and can see! Wouldn't it be fun to finish this with a pocket on the back to hold a candy cane or two? You could even make a box - with an open top - to offer canes! OMG Tree - Aren't you the most thoughtful cat-owner? This little thing measures 65 stitches square on 36 - over two, 3-1/2 inches, on 14ct - 4-1/2. The chart comes with those 5 little red wooden cut-out ornament embellishment for the tree... (something for kitty to try to chew off!) Coded for hand-dyed, but easy to convert to DMC, you could even use Simply Wool for that cat - and choose a color to match him!
Praise the Lord & Pass the Ammunition, So Many Cowboys, Not My Pasture By Dirty Annie's - a new designer at Market this Spring - I love these! Make sure to see her other charts we brought home. Praise the Lord measures just 60 x 60 stitches in size. Stitched with just Rose Petal and Straw Hat overdyeds by Classic Colorworks, the chart comes with a tiny pistol charm! So Many Cowboys, So Little Rope companions Praise the Lord... same two colors, same design size, only this one comes with a horseshoe charm. Not My Pasture - One of my very favorites from the show... just sweetly says it like it is! Choose any fabric, it calls for 7 colors of hand-dyeds, which you probably already have in your stash. It's finished size is 57 x 57 - just 3-inches or so!
Canning Season 'Grab your Balls, it's canning season!' Celebrate the Summer Dirty Annie's style! Just a fun little piece to decorate the kitchen and shock the family at the same time... choose some dark-ish fabric and your DMC's this finishes about 4 x 6. (We added some new pics of a couple of Annie's ornament designs - originally charted in pink, we changed colors to red to really make them POP. See what you think!)
Merry Christmas Y'all, Dance Like a Mermaid, Purrrr-fect! Dance Like a Mermaid - Drink like a pirate, dance like a mermaid... This design measures 110 x 150 - so finishes about 7 x 9 on 32ct. Stitched with hand-dyeds, the coral color is Weeks Sockeye, and the teal is Gentle Art's Peacock. Super cute, it comes with an enameled starfish charm! Merry Christmas Y'all - A fun tree ornament finishing about 3-1/2 inches square. They've featured two different Lady Dot trims in the edge finishing treatment - chenille, then stacking the mini-poms on top of that! Add a little sparkle to those flakes or boots if you feel like it! Purrr-fect - Just a sweet little black kitty! The model is actually done on Seafoam hand-dyed linen - I don't think you can tell that from the cover pic - and this finishes about 4-1/2 x 5. The flowers and grass re kind of low in color impact... you could always grab some pink and greens from your stash to brighten them up a little... but isn't that cat the cutest?
