Winter Moon from Plum Street Samplers Salem Sampler from Plum Street Samplers Salem Mini Moon from Plum Street Samplers
New Releases from Plum Street Samplers
  • Winter Moon -- Something Christmassy, but kind of not - especially if you leave off the holly and garlands on the trees. Paulette loves houses, and this spectacular piece has a big one - all solid stitching! (You need to be one of us that loves to sit in front of the TV and have solid stuff to fill in for this one!) The big moon, the organized symetry of the fence, walkway, bricks, trees, windows - all of it. Measuring 149 x 168, this will finish approx 8 x 9 on 36ct, and uses multiple skeins of several of its DMC, Weeks and Classic Colorworks flosses. Really eyecatching and grand.
  • Salem Sampler - 4th in Paulette's Rhode Island sampler-inspired series, this gorgeous piece companions Paulette's New Constellation, Heritage and New World Samplers. She tells us it's different for her because as a Halloween piece - she has NO orange in it! The top features a 'death head' which is a winged skull used on many old headstones and represents a soul whose journey to heaven isn't finished yet. Gallows Hill was apparently where the accused were hung, and there is the Reverend pointing fingers in the middle. Actually kind of creepy given the warning verse at the bottom about sleeping with the devil! So... OK... not the general subject of the others in this series... but eyecatching just the same!
  • Salem Mini Moon - The Halloween Hare leaping over a bubbling cauldron of who-knows-what! Freaky little Jacks down there... wild flowers that look like they might reach out and bite you, and the old moon... this measures just 72 x 81. Coded for DMC and a medley of hand-dyeds.

Real Comfort from Plum Street Samplers Grateful and Willing from Plum Street Samplers Fig Folk from Plum Street Samplers Jump Clump from Plum Street Samplers
New Fall Designs from Plum Street Samplers'
  • Real Comfort - Plan on thousands of stitches with this one! Absolutely stunning, she did this for a retreat last year, and is now releasing to everyone. 'There is nothing like staying home for real comfort' is a verse from Jane Austin. What a lush border, yard, those urns and acorns... and leaves... and all those windows to keep clean! Measuring 241 x 235, this will finish about 13-1/2 inches on 36ct. Stitched with DMCs, Weeks and Classic's flosses, it's full of color and charm. Paulette likes the mushrooms she put in the left hand urn, I love those acorns and leaves in the yard. You're going to need multiple skeins of Swamp Water, Lily Pad and Trail Dust for all those luscious stitched areas!
  • Grateful and Willing - Paulette describes this as her fun thanksgiving-inspired piece combining patriotism and the reminder to be grateful for our country and God's blessings on Her. The verse reads: 'I give to this beloved land my grateful heart and willing hand.' Measuring 131 x 94, it'll finish about 7 x 5 on 36ct, and is done with a combo of DMC, Weeks and Classic flosses... lots of colors in this one!
  • Fig Folk - Another animal family, instead of Vampire Bats for Halloween, she chose Fruit Bats - who love figs! Measures 54 x 91 - same size as the rest of this charming set of designs.
  • Jump Clump - I HATE HATE these little hairy hopping spiders! Paulette just loves them! She says she does NOT want one for a pet, and she doesn't want one in her hair, but she thinks everyone's Instagram pics of these are darling... so this season we get a hairy spider family! We will probably not stitch this for a shop model - because I don't want to walk past the display and have one of those little guys catch my eye! So... see who in your family would love you to stitch this!

Quack Stack from Plum Street Samplers We Remember from Plum Street Samplers There is Liberty from Plum Street Samplers
New Arrivals from Plum Street Samplers. Paulette has a trio of new designs.
  • Quack Stack - The next in her series of animal 'piles'... this measures 54 x 90 - just like the rest in the set. A Mallard family is kind of stacked up... Dad swimming for dinner, and Mom is feeding Baby up in the tree branches. Apparently, there is a lot of color detail on a Mallard duck - these kind of ate Paulette's lunch! Stitched on Graham Cracker hand-dyed 40ct. Chart for $10.00
  • We Remember - Paulette grew up in a military family. She loves patriotic holidays, and actually the whole summer is patriotic season to her. This 91 x 90 design is red with poppies, blue with stars and features kind of a white cat! You're allowed to change those kitty colors to match your kitty... but the features of the design are the poppies and stars. Coded for DMCs with some Weeks hand-dyeds tossed in. Chart $12.00
  • There is Liberty - This charming design features a row of tiny houses - and one dog house! It is all underneath a peace dove, who is followed by an eagle. Paulette loves the little connecting 'welcome paths' she put running between all her houses! Measuring 232 x 87, this finishes about 13 x 5 on 36ct, and is stitched with mainly DMC and touches of Weeks hand-dyed. This would make such a cool drum shape if you want an alternate finishing rather than framing. Presented as a chart $14.00

Stars from Plum Street Samplers AND Stripes from Shakespeare's Peddler - click to see more   Pennsylvania Christmas Trio from Shakespeare's Peddler - click to see more
Stars & Stripes, a collaboration between Shakespeare's Peddler and Plum Street Samplers
  • Stars - What a festive barn! You'll need some multiple skeins of thread for this! Quilt motif stars are everywhere, but notice the two baby eagles on there too! Festoons, that fun blue border on the left, just a very pretty piece. Companions Shakespeare's Peddler's '& Stripes' designs!
  • & Stripes - This is part 2 of a collaboration piece between Shakespeare's and Plum Street Samplers. Paulette did the #1 STARS chart... both she and Theresa worked on the the ampersand in the #2 design, Theresa did STRIPES! What a dynamite set of designs! You don't have to, but will probably want the same fabrics (a fat quarter will do) for all three pillows. The ampersand measures 65 x 103, and STRIPES measures 110 square. LOVE 'EM!

American Welcome from Plum Street Samplers American Mermaid Pinkeep from Plum Street Samplers Spring Beginnings from Plum Street Samplers
Luscious Spring Arrivals!
  • American Welcome - Wow... We LOVE this! What a fun and lavish topper border... the row of seaside 'cottages' is stunning, and the water scene is charming. The verse, though, is the most important: 'This land we love so vast and free. We honor those who cared for thee.' Finishes approx 9-1/2 x 8 on 36 ct... so full of pretty summer color!
  • American Mermaid Pinkeep - Paulette's companion to American Welcome... she says when she was little, she dreamed about being a mermaid, but she always had her top on in the dreams! Finishes approx 3 x 4 on 36ct.
  • Spring Beginnings - The companion to Autumn Joy and Winter Blessings, Paulette's dear lady is feeding her deer friend. Spring colors... this finishes about 3 x 3 on 36ct.
Summer Glory from Plum Street Samplers Nelson from Plum Street Samplers Flag Thief from Plum Street Samplers Proverbs 31 Sampler from Plum Street Samplers
More Luscious Spring Arrivals!
  • Summer Glory - Final design in this set, it finishes 3 x 3 on 36ct, and is coded for Weeks, Classic and DMC.
  • Nelson - Paulette loves George Washington! This is his beloved war horse, Nelson. He is placed amidst magnolias and lilacs - both of which were grown by GW on his Mt Vernon plantation. The reference of 1783 is the end of the Revolutionary War, and Nelson's retirement back to his cozy paddock at Mt V! Finishes approx 7 x 7 on 36ct.
  • Flag Thief - LOVE all the bold colors in this one! More multiple skeins of threads needed... but that's kind of fun. The glorious house is done in deep reds, the roof shingles in a medley of blue hand-dyeds... two little eagles are hiding in all the busy-ness, and the fox is busy chasing that fast little bunny Flag Thief! Measures about 7 x 7 on 36ct Fibre on a Whim Affogado hand-dyed (which is a fantastic color that we carry in several different counts including Aida!)
  • Proverbs 31 Sampler - Written from a wise mother to her son, teaching him what to look for in a spouse, this is one of Paulette's favorite verses. She chose a feminine color palette, and finished this into a box - maybe a sewing box? Measures about 7 x 7 on 36ct, coded for classic, Weeks and DMC flosses. This is piece dear to any stitcher's heart!

New World Sampler from Plum Street Samplers Autumn Joy from Plum Street Samplers Winter Blessings from Plum Street Samplers Christmas in the Colonies from Plum Street Samplers
Newest Designs - Coming after Thanksgiving!
Paulette has been busy... here we go! All are available as charts.
  • New World Sampler - Inspired by The Mayflower and the year the Pilgrims landed in America. It features those Pilgrims along with Wampanoag Indians (she did a little research for us to get them right!) and some floral motifs from the Loara Standish Sampler. She tossed in some of her notes for you to enjoy while you're stitching this charming piece. Love the colors, the village, the ship, the pumpkins... all of it! Worked on 36ct hand-dyed using Weeks and Classic flosses, it finishes about 9-1/2 x 10.
  • Autumn Joy and Winter Blessings - These are 2 of the 4 seasons of a new set of 4 designs - they feature a little lady with her deer companion, which will be the theme throughout the series. Paulette says Pennsylvania is full of deer who happily eat most of her landscaping! Stitched on 36ct, these 3-1/2 cushions are done with Weeks and Classic flosses and feature Lady Dot trims.
  • Christmas in the Colonies - Here's a Pilgrim couple celebrating Christmas outside their bright red home - which is most likely the talk of their town. They've welcomed their friends with the eternal symbol of hospitality - the pineapple. Stitch count is 120 x 53 - stitched on 36ct - with Weeks and Classic. It measures about 7-1/2 x 3.

Three New Designs from Plum Street Samplers
Jack's Candle Pocket from Plum Street Samplers Grim's Haunt from Plum Street Samplers Bony Bunch from Plum Street Samplers
  • Bony Bunch - If this isn't the cutest thing... it joins Paulette's stacks of animals... only they 'were' people! Grab any chalkboard colored fabric you like and stitch away - it calls for some DMC as well as Weeks Mascara, Grits and Classic's Cayenne and Just Rust. Stitch count is 54 x 90... it's a 'gotta have!'
  • Grim's Haunt - Quite the festive Halloween barn! The colors in this are yummy... the barn pattern and roof shingles are repeating, geometric and cool, the Jacks on their vines meander everywhere, but the little kitty is just the best! Paulette says grimalkin is another name for a cat - who is definitely the star of this show! Charted for a combination of Weeks, Classic and DMC floss this is done on 36ct Patriot's Brew - a great neutral. It measures 101 x 92 - so about 5-1/2 inches in size.
  • Jack's Candle Pocket - A fun finish for a primitive Jack-o-lantern design... the year 1867 is on there as the possible first year pumpkins were carved for Halloween! Finishing instructions are in the chart so you can make a cute candy sack, or something to hold dried flowers and twigs for the season - that would make a cute door hanger.

Summer Moon from Plum Street Samplers Mini Moon from Plum Street Samplers Christmas in July from Plum Street Samplers Freedom Pin Roll from Plum Street Samplers Freedom Pin Roll Model from Plum Street Samplers
New Releases from Plum Street Samplers!
  • Summer Moon - Paulette says this companions her Spring Moon design, and she's currently working on more in her series. She loves jack rabbits - 'so tall and gangly and heathered!' She's given us tall cayenne-bricked houses and red poppies... all bursting with color! Measuring 150 x 169, it'll finish approx 8 x 9 - almost solid stitching, too! Grab your Classic Colorworks, Weeks and DMC flosses! Fabric closely matches DMC3045 or 3828, so if you cannot find a suitable hand-dyed in your favorite count, this gives you a benchmark for matching it.
  • Mini Moon - Christmas Mini Moon came out this past December, and this is the next. Summery-red poppies and that skinny rabbit... background fabric closely matches DMC3045 or 3828. Finishing about 4 x 4-1/2, there is no featured trim on the little cushion, Paulette just 'faked' tassels by sewing multiple loops into the corners, knotting them, and cutting them off! Classic Colors hand-dyeds, she's coffee-stained this to mute the colors a bit - instructions for that are in the chart.
  • Christmas in July - You'll remember this design if you attended our Grand Summer Event at SN in 2021. It was our project - along with the little roll coming next. Paulette writes "Like pumpkin and spice, Christmas and July just go together! This patriotic design is a nod to our freedom as an American and the freedom offered to us in Christ. The verse reads: God bless this land from hill to sea, Christ be the gift to set us free" Alternatively, you could leave off the verse and stitch an extra star/snowflake/pinwheel in place of the word SEA. It measures about 8 x 10 on 36ct - Paulette's fabric matches DMC 3782 - so if you cannot find the called-for material, now you have a benchmark reference to begin your hunt!
  • Freedom Pin Roll - The little companion piece to Christmas in July! "Where Freedom dwells, there is my Country." Quote is by Benjamin Franklin, charm is brought to you by Paulette! Measuring just 66 x 177, this sweet little strip rolls up and fits right in your pocket... and will stitch and finish in a jiff. Paulette is planning to do several *Sampler Sushi* designs - their finished products remind her of sushi - so I am thinking we're going to be getting a whole set of little rolls! Just simple and fast, use an scrap left over from your larger cuts of linen... since the finishing is close to the stitching, you don't need a full three inches extra, which would be cut away anyhow.

Float from Plum Street Samplers Sting from Heartstring Samplery Float and Sting models from Plum Street Samplers and Heartstring Samplery Penny Spring from Plum Street Samplers
Paulette has sent her Plum Street Samplers Release
  • Float - Happy, colorful, light and charming! This year's collaboration with Heartstring Samplery - 'Float' goes with 'Sting'. Float is done with DMC and is shown on Country Vintage Mocha linen. Paulette calls this a Pin Keep or a Pin Give! This finishes approx 3 x 5.
  • Penny Spring - A companion to Penny Autumn, a little spring fox is up there in the trees - (do foxes climb trees?) Penny Autumn has the rust border, this one the pretty pinks. Coded for DMC and hand-dyeds.

Spring Moon from Plum Street Samplers Starbarks from Heartstring Samplery Tortoise Tower from Plum Street Samplers This I Know from Plum Street Samplers
  • Spring Moon - A glorious blue garden surrounding a pale blue house... Paulette has textures and angles and curves all over in this! The fun flowers, the monochromatic patterned tree and tulips in the lawn, the straight house and the angled basket... then you have that running rabbit - jumping over everything - by the light of the moon! Did you see the striped blue tulips - colored versions of the ones below? Finishes approx 8 x 9 on 36ct - just delightful!
  • Starbarks - More little weenie dogs enjoying their morning coffee together! Everyone loves all of Paulette's doggy pics - so she'd done another one! Coffee colors, quilt stars... just for fun!
  • Tortoise Tower - The next animal stack design - we're getting happy whimsical colors this time around. Love that profusion of fun flowers in the background... Paulette does tell you that you can change the turtle shell colors if you want - but I'm not sure what you'd choose... maybe do the turtles in brown, then the shells in a mossy, sharp green to share the attention with the flowers.
  • This I Know A Charming design - Paulette's Market Exclusive for the shops that attend the show. I like the repeating shapes of the leaves and little sheep! If you don't want a pink church, maybe choose a darker fabric and make it creamy? And, wouldn't different colors of Simply Wool or Wisper make those little sheep fuzzy and cute?

Christmas Mini Moon from Plum Street Samplers Yuletide Delivery from Plum Street Samplers My Heart's Welcome from Plum Street Samplers This Happy Morning from Plum Street Samplers
New Things have Arrived from Plum Street Samplers.
  • Christmas Mini Moon - Isn't this little guy the cutest? Paulette is designing a set of 'Moon Rabbits' to be released this coming March, at Market. Spring, Summer and Mini Moon are coming... but she threw in a Christmas version and he's ready NOW! She does say that if you don't want Christmas in the design, just leave off the candy canes and holly. Anyway, I don't know much about 'Moon Rabbits' but this one is cute. Various hand-dyeds and DMC, on 36ct it finishes approx 4-1/2 inches in size.
  • Yuletide Delivery - This companions Harvest, Halloween, Summer and Spring Delivery. It features Mrs. Claus riding in her sleigh on what appears to be a windy day. Her hat is billowing behind, yet her noble deer is standing still. A little artistic license? Well, it's a happy scene, pretty winter flowers and that deer is really neat. Stitched on 36ct Country Vintage Mocha, she's called for varied hand-dyeds and DMC. It finishes approx 10 x 4, so it'd be cute as a wedge stand-up on a deep windowsill.
  • My Heart's Welcome - A small yuletide design - Paulette suggests finishing it into a cushion to nestle inside a welcome wreath. The lady pictured is holding pineapple - a universal symbol of hospitality. Various hand-dyeds, lots of neutral fabrics will work as well.
  • This Happy Morning - This is a pretty piece that can be stitched on light or dark fabric! Although they look the same in the pics, there really are a lot of color variances between the two. Stitched on either Hogbristle or Black Swan linen, it's a pretty piece that finishes approx 14 inches square. I am thinking there is a LOT of stitching on here - I love the lacy greenery and the border, but the patterns in the barn and the yard steal the show.

New Designs from Plum Street Samplers
Autumn Cottage from Plum Street Samplers Grace Doth Abound from Plum Street Samplers Cardinal Kin from Plum Street Samplers Paulette has sent us three new charts...
  • Cardinal Kin - This is another of her 'animal stacks' pieces. Luscious colors, she couldn't decide between brighter, traditional colors or a more muted Victorian palette - so she did BOTH in the same chart. Finishes the same size as the rest in this series - coded for Weeks and DMCs.
  • Grace Doth Abound - This one deals with Adam and Eve.... and God's grace of Autumn Bounty... even after they were evicted from the garden! Paulette says it was a fun piece to design with the blue serpent tempting the (Halloween Costumed!) A and E. The verse refers back to God's mercy on them as they were booted out of Eden... they would now have to till the ground for food. But Autumn comes, and along with it, the Harvest! Measuring 214 x 176 - so 12 x 10 on 36ct, it's coded for Weeks hand-dyed flosses and DMC.
  • Autumn Cottage - Paulette says this is a little white cottage with a hinged front door, swirling chimney smoke and a little black crow sitting atop the Autumn Stems growing in the yard. Nothing super-special, just a pretty, quick stitch to tuck into that bowl of Autumn 'bowl-fillers!'

Siren's Tart from Plum Street Samplers Live on Little from Plum Street Samplers New Arrivals from Plum Street Samplers
  • Live on Little - *How great the blessing and vast the art, to live on little with a thankful heart.* Just a gorgeous New England house by the sea... I could live there, and my heart would be thankful - I promise! Paulette's daughter did comment that 'whoever is living in that house is most certainly not 'living on little!' Measuring 307 x 207, it's stitched on 36ct Hogbristle Linen by Fox & Rabbit using Weeks hand-dyed flosses and lots of DMC. It finishes approx17 x 11-1/2 - huge! An alphabet is included to personalize the flags on the sailboat - I love the border, the sea, the house, and the whole whale and lobster thing at the bottom!
  • Siren's Tart - A little 3 x 4 piece - 36ct Weeks Dove Linen, with Weeks flosses, our mermaid is stitching a letter S - for Siren. Her sewing box happens to be a treasure chest... which Paulette suspects we all have and LOVE!

Adorn Your Heart from Plum Street Samplers Thistle House from Plum Street Samplers My Garden House from Plum Street Samplers Corgi Caboodle from Plum Street Samplers God Bless America from Plum Street Samplers This is the Day from Plum Street Samplers
New Designs
Paulette has 6 new things... all chart format... here we go!
  • Adorn Your Heart - Paulette's favorite part of this one is the pink cow! 'Adorn your heart, adorn your mind with knowledge of the sweetest kind.' This finishes apporx 9 x 12 on 36ct.
  • Thistle House - Finishes 5 x 7... the repeating shapes of the thistles and leaves on here is really pleasing. Paulette says the color palette is of soft sage, gray, pink and white... hard to see in the pic.
  • My Garden House - An absolutely beautiful bouquet of flowers beside a crisp white house... this can be 'drummed' like in the pic, or framed. Stitched with Weeks and DMC, it measures about 10 x 3 - which is why it's perfect for that little drum shape!
  • Corgi Caboodle - Oh my gosh, the next little family stack... these all finish the same size and look great together. Pretty pink flowers and plump Corgi pups. Paulette says there might be more doggy sets coming!
  • God Bless America - This features a bald eagle in her nest perched atop a grand house. (There is a roof on there - just too light in the picture.) The house number is 1776 and there are 13 stars long-stitched under the roofline... and the colors are delicious. I love the festoon border! Finishes approx 9 x 10 on 36ct.
  • This is the Day - Our Market Exclusive this year this features one of Paulette's favorite verses... but she says it'd be pretty even if you left off the words. There is a mountain goat leaping over that lavish potted plant potted plant. I guess he's rejoicing and being glad with his day - in his yard - at home! Finishes about 9 x 11 on 36ct... she's tucked some bright colors into that little sun - kind of thinking outside her design-box!

The Animal Stacks!
This is the most fun set of families! Every one looks different... but everyone has a family! (Except Bigfoot and The Snowman, but I guess they go together, too!) All finish the same size... all are offered as individual chart packs... enjoy them ALL! Float your cursor over each image to see its name.
  • Corgi Caboodle - Oh my gosh, the next little family stack... these all finish the same size and look great together. Pretty pink flowers and plump Corgi pups. Paulette says there might be more doggy sets coming!
  • Polar Pack - The latest animal stack... she has these little guys dressed in fair isle sweaters. Look a the baby bear way up there high... but LOOK at the bitty bee! He's wearing a Santa hat! (You could leave that off if Santa has already come to your house, but it's so darn cute!) This one is done on 36ct Eucalyptus by Fox & Rabbit... with Weeks, and features Lady Dot's Snow Eyelash Chenille trim.
  • Hedge Row - Another fun stack of cute little animals, these darling hedgehogs companion all 12 of Paulette's other 'stacks.' (racoons, kangaroos, deer, sloths, fox, llama, turkeys, cows, hens, hogs, goats and sheep.) Big Foot and The Abominable Snowman technically don't count... but they coordinate too! Just as cute as can be, they are all nestled on daisy stems sniffing the pretty flowers! They measure 60 x 90 in stitch count.
  • Bigfoot Bunch & Abominable Bundle - Oh these two are fun! In Bigfoot, can you find Mama and Baby hiding? The Abominable Snowman is from the Christmas Special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Remember him in there? Didn't Herbie fix his sore tooth? A little digression from the rest of the animal 'stacks' but that's OK... stitch him and wait for people to loooookkkk... and then timidly ask about!
  • Raccoon Rabble - Another STACK design, I think this is my favorite so far! The peeking-from-the-pumpkin one is darling... he's hiding in there, and probably not supposed to be there at all. The sly one above on the branch is looking like he's ready to poke the other one - his sibling - (just to get a rise out of him) - but Mom is looking on... and the baby is just up there because he's timid! Great colors, the corn makes a charming border! 3 x 5-ish.
  • Roo Crew - The next little stack of animals! This whole set of 'piles' is just the cutest... we've had the models here in the shop, and they make a really cool display all piled into a big ol' bowl!
  • Rack Stack - The next stack on animals with a cute rhyming name... it's Christmas... so we get deer! The snow, red berries, soft brown deer and that awesome blue background on the fabric, this companions 8-ish other fun animal stack designs! Lady Dot's Algae hand-dyed trim on there matches the greens in the design.
  • Fox Few - The latest *STACK* of animals... just a few little foxes make up this pile of pleasure!
  • Gobble Gob - This is the newest animal stack - it features a turkey family all perched in a field of Autumn corn!!! All the autumn/checkerboarded/quilty sunflowers are charming... and so is that little turkey chick! Finishing the same size as the rest of the Animal Stacks... about 3 x 5, Paulette discusses two different fabric choices for this one!
  • Llama Lump is her latest stack of animals. I thought WHO cares about Llamas... then I took a stroll through Hobby Lobby this morning and saw a million Llama things!!! Cute, cute, cute, same size as the Hens, snorts, cows, gobbles, and sheep, these actually have a little Holiday flair to them.
  • Cow Pile -- This is the 4th design in Paulette's Barnyard Friends collection -- which is totally NOT supposed to be a set of designs at all! So, if you like these little blessed bovines all stacked up -- get them NOW for your stash and stitch them later! 56 x 90.
  • Hen Peck -- The chicken pile! So darn cute... this measures 64 x 92 in size. This is the 6th design like this... wouldn't they be cute all nestled together in a pin-cushion bowl?
  • Goat Load, Sheep Heap and Snort Stack - Paulette has a trio of designs that are so cute together!!! All measuring 54 x 90 in stitch count -- 3 x 5 on 36ct -- choose between goats, sheep or those precious pigs!!! (I love that little 'bacon bit' at the very top!) Anyway, pretty colors, Lady Dot's Vintage colored Chenille trim is used in the finishing. Can't choose a favorite between these three!




This Joyous Season from Plum Street Samplers A Mount Vernon Christmas from Plum Street Samplers Polar Rack from Plum Street Samplers
New Releases from Plum Street Samplers - due in the shop the first week of December!
Paulette Stewart has sent pics and teaser notes about her new designs...
  • This Joyous Season - Using the Christmas Carol Joy to the World as her inspiration, she's done a big red brick house with a rooftop of pomegranates. The flag behind is the Australian flag (not sure why!) but she's included a charted US flag as well. 182 x 168 - Measuring about 10 x 9 on 36ct, it calls for DMC and Weeks hand-dyeds. Lots of pretty design elements in here... you get that bottom row, the cute sleigh on the right and the awesome verse and billowing basket at the top, not to mention that cool house! (We have the 36ct Up in the Attic hand-dyed linen by Fox & Rabbit - for a limited time - fat quarters $41.50)
  • A Mount Vernon Christmas - Paulette's little dogs are named George and Martha! This pinkeep features their could-be-Mt Vernon home with a snowman perched on the roof. Paulette knows she has a 'thing' about filled rooftops... she just can't leave them empty! She lamented about the possibility of one finding a snowman on their roof and the impending snow melt and roof damage situation that would follow... but designed this anyhow! Enjoy! 112 x 62, It'll finish approx 6 x 3-1/2! Weeks hand-dyeds and Lady Dot's mini Vintage Rik Rak trim are featured.
  • Polar Pack - The latest animal stack... she has these little guys dressed in fair isle sweaters. Look a the baby bear way up there high... but LOOK at the bitty bee! He's wearing a Santa hat! (You could leave that off if Santa has already come to your house, but it's so darn cute!) This one is done on 36ct Eucalyptus by Fox & Rabbit... with Weeks, and features Lady Dot's Snow Eyelash Chenille trim.

Good Company from Plum Street Samplers Goodness and Thanks from Plum Street Samplers The Gather Inn from Plum Street Samplers Betsy's Autumn Bird and Acorn from Plum Street Samplers
New from Plum Street Samplers.
  • Good Company - Paulette loves foxes, and had some living behind her house until they started road work! This is a pretty little piece - 87 x 72 - about 4 x 5 on 36ct. It features an awesome oak tree, bright sunflower, that cute house,and of course the little fox! The model on the cover is trimmed with Lady Dot's Mossy Mini ball trim.
  • Goodness and Thanks - A penny rug inspired border surrounds this tiny pilgrim couple - the 1621 on there is the date of their first Thanksgiving. The larger cushion measures 4 x 4, the smaller is 2 x 2, and both are stitched on a neutral fabric with Classic Colorworks of Fresh Brew, Glazed Carrots, La Tierra, Zach Black, Sunkissed, Weeping Willow, Just Rust, Hickory Sticks and Shabby Sheep.
  • The Gather Inn - This design features an autumn inn full of pumpkins and the festive arrival of the inn's proprietress, Edna, along with her 'gentle steed Calliope.' Paulette designed this when so many of us were saddened by the realization that gathering with our friends was simply out of the question. But we're getting back to those gatherings again! This one reminds her of Cinnamon Stars she designed several years ago.
  • Betsy's Autumn Bird and Acorn - This was the Thursday evening project at our Summer Retreat with Paulette in 2017! (That's our model in the pic - but she's recharted the date so you're good!) The sunflowers on there are cute and the bird is big and fat - even though the little cushion is only 3 x 3. What is REALLY cool, though, is the stitched acorn! Hard to see in the pic, it is a bit of stitching - only 19 x 19 stitches in size. She's stuffed it into an acorn cap - and it is the CUTEST LITTLE THING! 36Ct neutral linens, Weeks hand-dyeds - you probably have all of them in your stash!

New Arrivals from Plum Street Samplers.
Paulette has been busy creating... so here are her latest new treats!
  • Hedge Row - Another fun stack of cute little animals, these darling hedgehogs companion all 12 of Paulette's other 'stacks.' (racoons, kangaroos, deer, sloths, fox, llama, turkeys, cows, hens, hogs, goats and sheep.) Big Foot and The Abominable Snowman technically don't count... but they coordinate too! Just as cute as can be, they are all nestled on daisy stems sniffing the pretty flowers! They measure 60 x 90 in stitch count.
  • Flirting - Paulette says this is a follow-up to 'Falling' - the same Pilgrim couple - still ooshing and gooshing at each other, but on deer this time instead of sensible horses! I love the trees on there... you could leave the love birds at home, and just do the trees!
  • The Equality Sampler - This is lovely! So many pretty design elements in this one, *We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men and women are created equal...* The year 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of women's right to vote. Dedicated to the suffrage movement, Paulette added the names of the three women who were the original champions - who ignited the cause. 180 x 185, Stitched with hand-dyeds, the borders are flowing and pretty, the houses are neat, the flag is big and bold, it'll make a nice statement on your wall!
  • Always Remember - This design is dedicated to those who've lost their lives in service to our great country. All the pretty poppies, can you see the quilt block detail as the 'bricks' on the house? Measures 139 x 114.
  • Flag Flock & Sheep Keep - Paulette says these three are looking mighty proud in their own private patriots parade. On their backs are symbols of prosperity and happiness, an olive branch for peace and a hospitality pineapple. To keep them in their ranks, you can opt to stitch the little 'Sheep Keep' with its Border collie and her keeper-in-training! Lots of pretty color, too!

My Early Days from Plum Street Samplers Adam Names the Animals from Plum Street Samplers Bigfoot Bunch from Plum Street Samplers Abominable Bundle from Plum Street Samplers
4 New charts Arriving from Plum Street Samplers' Paulette Stewart
  • My Early Days - Inspired by a sampler Paulette owns, she 'perked up' the blues in her design, because she found that blue enchanting on the original piece. Finishing approx 12 x 12 - pretty generous on 36ct, it has a pretty symetry.
  • Adam Names the Animals - Paulette tells us that Eve is not present on the sampler, as God gave Adam the task of naming the animals before Eve was created. The verse on the sampler alludes to the loneliness Adam still felt after each of the animals had been considered as company. Finishes approx 11 x 8 on 40ct.
  • Bigfoot Bunch & Abominable Bundle - Oh these two are fun! In Bigfoot, can you find Mama and Baby hiding? The Abominable Snowman is from the Christmas Special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Remember him in there? Didn't Herbie fix his sore tooth? A little digression from the rest of the animal 'stacks' but that's OK... stitch him and wait for people to loooookkkk... and then timidly ask about!

Sweater Weather from Plum Street Samplers George Decorates for Martha from Plum Street Samplers Raccoon Rabble from Plum Street Samplers Rest A Wile from Plum Street Samplers
New Arrivals
Paulette excels at her Autumn-y colors and whimsey this time of year... and we have 6 new releases to prove it!
  • Sweater Weather - Even the little doggies need sweaters this time of year! Blowing leaves, fat crows, hooty owls and a skinny turkey who is hoping to skip Thanksgiving Dinner... everyone is here amidst those swirling leaves. Stitch count is 159 x 71, so they finish about 4 x 9 on 36ct. Coded for DMC and Classic hand-dyed flosses - think about one of the dogs with his buddy on his back, or that glorious central pimpkin... all of this is cute!
  • George Decorates for Martha - Paulette says this depicts George performing his Honey-Do List while Martha tends to the free birds. 178 x 99 - It finishes about 10 x 5. Another one to divide up in case you don't have time to stitch it all... the cool stack of pumpkins, the eagle and flag, all the repeating leaves in the background add a lot of visual charm to this!
  • Raccoon Rabble - Another STACK design, I think this is my favorite so far! The peeking-from-the-pumpkin one is darling... he's hiding in there, and probably not supposed to be there at all. The sly one above on the branch is looking like he's ready to poke the other one - his sibling - (just to get a rise out of him) - but Mom is looking on... and the baby is just up there because he's timid! Great colors, the corn makes a charming border! 3 x 5-ish.
  • Rest A Wile - This is charming! That sly little fox has his eyes closed - like he's sleeping - and that huge, glorious tail is stationary - just waiting to billow and scare the crow out of his berry snack! I LOVE love the busy background of all the vines, acorns, flowers and see the moon? Measures about 9 x 6, this is another one that could break up beautifully into some smaller pin cushions - interrupt the background, and make a set of three!
Falling from Plum Street Samplers Ugly Sweater Weather from Plum Street Samplers
  • Falling - You'll recognize this as one of our past A Little Help From Our Friends Stitching Circle pieces! A pretty 6 x 6 cushion design, it's now the first in a new series of same-sized designs - seasonal - that all deal with falling in love! See the Turkey chaperone up there is the tree? A secret rendezvous!
  • Ugly Sweater Weather - Well how cute are these little guys? Donned gaily in their Ugly Christmas Sweaters... there's even a Holiday bone! Measures 207 x 81 - just something for fun!

Summer Hill from Plum Street Samplers Nightshade Bird from Plum Street Samplers Summertide Blessings from Plum Street Samplers Tomato Dame from Plum Street Samplers Grace on Thee from Plum Street Samplers
New Arrivals from Plum Street Samplers.
Paulette has several Summer Releases - for some reason she is really into TOMATOES this time around - maybe she's growing some in her garden!
  • Summer Hill - A Companion to Autumn Hill, Paulette tells us that one of the 'hill sisters' is standing next to her garden flag. Stitched in good old DMC floss, the stripes on the flag are over one thread, and the stars on her skirt are dome with straight stitches.
  • Nightshade Bird - A fun finishing treatment for this black-and-pink bird who is carrying a cherry tomato vine... I like the primitive x-stitches that decorate the top and bottom edges of the linen. Measuring 3 x 10 on 36ct, you can't see the entire design, but the busy little bird and vine are intertwined with the alphabet. The Nightshade reference in the title again refers back to tomatoes. There are no finishing instructions included for that velvet tomato on top - but probably easily found online somewhere.
  • Summertide Blessings - More Tomatoes! Paulette describes this: A Nightshade-loving lady riding atop her squawking steed, showing off her prized tomatoes while carrying her beloved country's banner and counting her blessings. Quite a mouthful! Anyway, stitched on a dusty denim blue shade of linen, it measures 132 x 97 - or 6 x 9 on 32ct.
  • Tomato Dame - This another fun one - more tomatoes! 89 x 97... Choose that blue again, or something with a lot of gold in it to contrast the tomatoey-reds... cute pin cushion!
  • Grace on Thee - This one is very balanced and organized - and showcases a very talented landscaper! Measuring 128 x 120, it finishes 8 x 8 on 32ct and is stitched on a light neutral. I love the over-one on the flag, all the panes in the windows, all the lines of the bricks - all of that is straight. Then, the topiary evergreens in the garden with the little quilt star motifs on them contrast the squares with circles and points! And, Paulette reminds us to take note of that timely verse at the top!

A New Constellation from Plum Street Samplers Liberty Lodge from Plum Street Samplers My Peaceful Home from Plum Street Samplers
Plum Street Samplers' Newest Releases are on the Way!
  • A New Constellation - A companion to The Heritage Sampler, this piece tells the story of America's most famous seamstress - Betsy Griscom - also known as Betsy Ross. Along with Quaker elements, it features Betsy's three marriages, church and committee meetings she attended... all sorts of interesting stuff! It finishes approx 9 x 10 on 36ct... the floral border is lovely... and if you don't want to commemorate Betsy's marriages in here, stick in your family dates instead!
  • Liberty Lodge - Paulette writes, "This design features an old red truck hauling a basket of fresh flowers back from the Liberty nursery. A lone bald eagle sits top one of the blooms, overlooking the comings and goings of guests in the lodge... None of that is true, of course. But it does have a truck, and an eagle, and a lodge and flowers!" (And since they didn't have red trucks in 1776, we have decided that this is the lodge address, not the year! Just a dinky thing at 5 x 6-ish in size.
  • My Peaceful Home - Here is a rose-colored house surrounded by deer, birds and sheep in the gardens... that sports a huge peacock on the roof! Stitched on 36ct, it finishes just 3 inches high, and 10 inches long - but if you wrap it into the drum shape, it's a petite 3 x 3!

Sewn In Friendship from Plum Street Samplers Sewn In Friendship from Heartstring Samplery
Sewn in Friendship
These are a collaboration between Heartstring Samplery and Plum Street Samplers... releasing next week! We'd seen Paulette's half... and now we have a pic of Beth's half - they meet amidst the motifs! (The Heartstring half is shown on the left, and the Plum Street half is on the right.)

They are sweet pincushion-sized things - probably about 4 x 6. *A Pin Keep or a Pin Give!* We love them!

  • Sweetheart Hill - 'I belong with you!' Measures 139 x 120, stitched with Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses.
  • Noah's Ark VII - Another pair of cute animal ornaments - Llamas and Lovebirds! All the previous charts in the set are still available.

  • Spring Has Sprung - Designed in the style of the'Hello and Goodbye' series, while this is a complete lie right now, Spring really WILL spring in a few weeks!
  • Roo Crew - The next little stack of animals! This whole set of 'piles' is just the cutest... we've had the models here in the shop, and they make a really cool display all piled into a big ol' bowl!
  • A Shepherd's Song - Based on the 23rd psalm, a shepherdess in pantaloons changes it up a little! 285 x 178.


Winter Saltboxes from Plum Street Samplers Rack Stack from Plum Street Samplers For You from Plum Street Samplers A Country Winter from Plum Street Samplers Home For Christmas from Plum Street Samplers
Charming New Releases
Due in the Shop by Thanksgiving, all are charts and all use various hand-dyed linens and cotton flosses. YUM!
  • Winter Saltboxes - Paulette's 4th seasonal set of these houses... meant to remind us of those old pictures that used to spit out of the camera when we were little... these are snapshots in time of little Shaker houses during the seasons. Snowflakes and reindeer this time around... each pic finishes about 4 x 4. (63 x 81 Stitch counts.)
  • Rack Stack - The next stack on animals with a cute rhyming name... it's Christmas... so we get deer! The snow, red berries, soft brown deer and that awesome blue background on the fabric, this companions 8-ish other fun animal stack designs! Lady Dot's Algae hand-dyed trim on there matches the greens in the design.
  • For You - Santa is offering his moose friend a candy cane... amidst the falling snow. (Little flakes cover the background, and you can see some on the moose and Santa. The bag of goodies on the sleigh is kind of neat... you can believe it is actually full of those flowers, or they can be the 'idea of awesome-ness' that awaits you! Anticipation! Finishes a petite 5 x 3-ish.
  • A Country Winter - What a pretty barn nestled between the evergreens! The grass is pretty green to have that snowman there, (even Paulette attests to that) but he's cute, and the tiny quilt square he's holding is stitched over one thread. Finishes about 6 x 3-1/2.
  • Home For Christmas - Quite a festive and grand red house surrounded by the lavish pomegranates and the organized quilt stars. It's bold, and since it says 'Welcome Home,' you just kind of want to be there!

Clementine from Plum Street Samplers Autumn Hill from Plum Street Samplers Bless Our Land from Plum Street Samplers Goody Grimwood from Plum Street Samplers
New Designs are Now Here
Paulette has released four new designs - all of them are super-cute!
  • Clementine - Clementine is sitting on a white pumpkin in a field of corn and autumn flowers. Her stitch count is 71 x 66, so she measures about 4-1/2 inches square on 32ct. Worked with Classic Colorworks hand-dyed cottons, we love all the brilliant Fall colors in this. Might Clementine be sporting 'an attitude?!'
  • Autumn Hill - Measuring 126 x 91, this finishes 5 x 7 on 36ct... and she will have a Thistle Hill design to companion her! Glorious flowers all stitched with Classic Colorworks hand-dyed cottons.
  • Bless Our Land - There is a new constellation (who knew?) with little Betsy along with her eagle friends blessing our land. 74 stitches square - about 4-1/2 inches on 32ct... this is a cute little piece with an awesome garden vine, that billowing flag and two cute little eagles tucked in there!
  • Goody Grimwood - Oh this is fun!!! It's like a haunted house scene, but it has cheerful flowers in the garden! They don't match the house... so it's kind of fun to try to figure out who lives there! Measuring 164 x 150 in stitch count, this finishes 10 x 9 on 32ct, and is stitched with Classic Colorworks cottons.

THE BEEKEEPER from Plum Street Samplers SAMPLER LESSON FOUR from Plum Street Samplers TIRED TRIO from Plum Street Samplers
July's Three New Designs
  • THE BEEKEEPER Paulette says: After numerous requests, I'm releasing this as a regular chart. It was inspired by my favorite BBC character, Queenie, from Larkrise to Candleford. (If you haven't taken the time to watch this charming series, do yourself a favor and brew some tea or coffee, settle in with your stitching, and let yourself be carried away by the sweetest story lines!)
    Stitch count: 164w x 113h, Fabric used: 35 ct linen, Threads used: Weeks Dye Works.
  • SAMPLER LESSON FOUR This is the fourth of five "Sampler Lessons," previously released as partial kits. This one is a fall-themed one, which means it's done in all my favorite colors! Only one more Sampler Lesson to go after this one!
    Stitch count: 83w x 81h, Fabric used: 36 ct. linen, Threads used: Classic Colorworks. Paulette suggests you use Lady Dot Vintage Chenille for the trim.
  • TIRED TRIO Paulette says: I had a very difficult time when I first wrote this pattern up because I couldn't get the over-one instructions to match the cover photo. After struggling for what seemed like an eternity, I finally realized I had photographed the model upside down! The chart has since been corrected, but if I had not been able to figure it out in time, the poor middle sloth would still look like it had been deceased a few days, given how its legs would be sticking straight up. (Turn the chart upside down - you'll see what I mean!) Stitch count: 57w x 92h, Fabric used: 36 ct. Linen, Threads used: Classic Colorworks and Weeks Dye Works, Trim used: Mossy chenille by Lady Dot Creates.

Summer Saltboxes from Plum Street Samplers Summer Delivery from Plum Street Samplers Peace, Love & Purpose from Plum Street Samplers
New Things..
Paulette said she is pretty proud of herself for getting her patriotic designs out before the 4th of July!
  • Summer Saltboxes - This continues her set of Saltbox houses... we have Summer and Autumn already. This time, she made the flag continue from one pic to the other. 63 x 81, they finish a little under 4 x 5 each and use Classic Colorworks flosses of Black Coffee, Used Brick, Tennessee Red Clay, Shabby Sheep, Muddy Puddle, Sticks and Twigs, Dublin Bay, Pine Needles, Eggshell and Snowball.
  • Summer Delivery - Just like her other 'Deliveries' this one has that cute horse... and a profusion of quilt motifs on the sky. The little sheep has a basket on his back, and all those blocks are the flowers coming from the basket. Finishes approx 6 x 10-ish, this one calls for Weeks Dye Works flosses of Mascara, Teal Frost, Flatfish, Confederate Gray, Grits, Swamp Water, Terrapin, Crimson and Baked Apple.
  • Peace, Love & Purpose - This one features a colonial couple standing by their humble, quilt-bedecked home. 113 x 100, it finishes approx 5 x 6 and uses Taupe, Whitewash, Garrison Green, Grapevine, Dolphin, Tin Roof, Sanguine, Terrapin, Cocoa and Used Brick. Some good 'sections' in here... you can separate out that gorgeous tulip border along the bottom, or stitch just the house with the billowing flag... very cute!

Spring Saltboxes from Plum Street Samplers The Wool & Flax Co from Plum Street Samplers Yellow Polka Dot Bikweenie from Plum Street Samplers
It's All Here!
  • Spring Saltboxes - Companion to Autumn Saltboxes 63 x 81 in stitch count, pretty houses against glorious skies!
  • The Wool & Flax Co - A companion to Milk and Cream Co, this is charming! There is a little border collie up there herding his sheep for his mistress, this is about 8 inches square on 32ct.
  • Yellow Polka Dot Bikweenie - The next *weenie-dog* pattern, this one is for summer... and one is wearing swim trunks, while the other is sporting that yellow polka dot bikini. This answers the age-old question... it is a YELLOW bikini with other-colored polka dots... or is it an any-color-bikini with YELLOW polka dots? It doesn't look to be a yellow bikini with yellow polka dots, though. 239 x 62 in stitch count.

Fraktur Friends from Plum Street Samplers A Gentleman's Daughter from Plum Street Samplers Fox Few from Plum Street Samplers
  • Fraktur Friends - If you've been a member of our *A Little Help From Our Friends* Stitching Circle... you might recognize this design... it was one of ours a couple of years ago!
  • A Gentleman's Daughter - A companion to Miss Bingley's library, this features a fun quote from Pride and Prejudice... lots of organization in this... pretty lines.
  • Fox Few - The latest *STACK* of animals... just a few little foxes make up this pile of pleasure!

Llama Lump, Goodbye Fall & Noah's Ark VI -- Plum Street's Newest Releases
Goodbye Fall from Plum Street Samplers Llama Lump from Plum Street Samplers Paulette is busy dishing up cute things for us to stitch...
  • Llama Lump is her latest pile of animals. I thought WHO cares about Llamas... then I took a stroll through Hobby Lobby this morning and saw a million Llama things!!! Cute, cute, cute, same size as the Hens, snorts, cows, gobbles, and sheep, these actually have a little Holiday flair to them.
  • Goodbye Fall - This companions Paulette's 4-Seasons set of Hellos. I don't think she's going to do 'exit designs' for the rest, this was just sort of a fun transition. You get a turkey in there but a big cardinal too. Finishes 9 x 5 on 36ct.
  • Noah's Christmas Ark VI - This is the final chart in this PLANNED series of 12 ornaments - all fun and different animals we don't usually think about. Paulette says she'll do more to match them, but no specifics on that now. Ravens and Deer this time, these have all been charming! Scroll down just a bit to see the entire series.

This set began in February of 2018, and is now complete.


Autumn Saltboxes from Plum Street Samplers Gobble Gob from Plum Street Samplers Five New Designs - Gobble Gob and Autumn Saltboxes are just two!
Paulette Stewart has sent the cutest new designs! Click the pic to visit her page with all the details!
  • Gobble Gob - This is the newest animal stack - it features a turkey family all perched in a field of Autumn corn!!! All the autumn/checkerboarded/quilty sunflowers are charming... and so is that little turkey chick! Finishing the same size as the rest of the Animal Stacks... about 3 x 5, Paulette discusses two different fabric choices for this one!
  • Autumn Saltboxes - Nick-named the Salt Shakers! 2 Houses, each 63 x 81 in stitch count, these look gorgeous! She has them finished as flats, but they would make 3 x 4-ish pin cushion pillows as well. Great colors, and again those charming quilted flowers in the backgrounds!

Miss Bingley's Library from Plum Street Samplers
Miss Bingley's Library
This chart has a quote from Jane Austin's Price and Prejudice, and Paulette's stitched model is currently hanging in her book-loving Mother's library!!! I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library!

Stitched on 36ct, it finishes approx 6 x 8, and is done with a combination of Weeks and Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses. (also coded for DMC.) I bet you know someone who would love this!


Betsy's Autumn from Plum Street Samplers
Betsy's Autumn
Look at all those fun repeating Maple leaves, the quilt-motif sunflowers, the stack of pumpkins, all the little acorns everywhere and even the repeating windows in the house! Everything is so scattered but yet so organized! Betsy Ross's house in the Autumn season... who wouldn't want to live here? Even the smoking chimney swirls are charming!!!

184 x 130 on 36 ct, this finishes approx 10 x 7 and is full of yummy hand-dyed color!


In Friendship from Plum Street Samplers
In Friendship
This design features a beautiful sentiment found on some antique samplers, and two stitching friends holding up a Quaker cornucopia of flowers. 158 stitches square, it kind of 'has sections!'

The verse, the houses and the florals... How much to be prized and esteemed is a friend on whom we may always with safety depend. Lots happening in this 9 x 9 petite piece!


Crone of the Hill from Plum Street Samplers Buzz Off from Plum Street Samplers Eat Crow from Plum Street Samplers
Fall Releases
  • Crone of the Hill - A neat house, a cool fence and the 'lady of the house' right there on top of the hill... Paulette said her daughter teased her about being the oldest 'crone' still living on their street! So Here she is!!! Finishes approx 5 x 7 on 32ct.
  • Buzz Off and Eat Crow - Definitely an awesome pair of designs shown finished as pillows... these measure about 9 x 9 on 32ct. I LOVE the birds, the sayings, the motifs all over them, the colors... EVERYTHING about these two! Fun and Fresh!!! Each is offered as its own chart.

Blue Skin from Plum Street Samplers Merfolks' Eden from Plum Street Samplers Cow Pile from Plum Street Samplers Hen Peck from Plum Street Samplers Scary One -- Bowl Fill of Scaries from Plum Street Samplers
New Arrivals
  • Blue Skin -- George Washington had two horses he used in battle; Blueskin and Nelson. Blueskin -- the more skittish of the two is featured in this design, and the tree they are standing under is George's legendary cherry tree. Paulette also left George out of uniform -- because he and Blueskin are now retired! 7-1/2 inches square on 32ct.
  • Merfolks' Eden -- Ms Paulette loves Adam and Eve samplers and Mermaids, so decided to join them in this fraktur-style piece. She's included a puffer fish, dolphins and narwals (I'm not at all sure what those are!!) and eels for the serpent in her underwater Garden of Eden. 162 x 111.
  • Cow Pile -- This is the 4th design in Paulette's Barnyard Friends collection -- which is totally NOT supposed to be a set of designs at all! So, if you like these little blessed bovines all stacked up -- get them NOW for your stash and stitch them later! 56 x 90.
  • Hen Peck -- The chicken pile! So darn cute... this measures 64 x 92 in size. This is the 6th design like this... wouldn't they be cute all nestled together in a pin-cushion bowl?
  • Scary One -- Bowl Fill of Scaries -- This was originally released as a kit as the first design of Paulette's Scary Serial Bowl Series. Life changed, and kits have not gone forward. The design is now being offered in chart format, with the rest of the Serial Bowls (at some point) being released in chart format as well.

Plum Street Samplers has new designs!

A Colonial Garden from Plum Street Samplers
A Colonial Garden
This is a pretty little piece - it's stitched on any dark gunmetal-colored material, and coded for either DMC or silks. On 36ct, it finishes about 4 x 10.

The colors are mostly bright greens, oranges, reds and gold... strange, but absolutely gorgeous on this color. Paulette also offers a color palette if you want this on lighter material as well... but no pic of that option, I am sorry to say!


Paulette has 7 new designs!
See if there are any that charm their way into your stitching stash!


Plum Street Samplers Bovinia - click for more Plum Street Samplers Woolemina - click for more Plum Street Samplers The Milk & Cream Co - click for more
We think she's into COWS these days!
  • Bovinia -- She is grazing in her glorious field! Only 86 x 61 in stitch count... put her on 25ct Lugana over one and she'd make a 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 pin cushion! Pretty pinks and greens of classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses.
  • Woolemina -- A framed tart design from Paulette's Sweet Shoppe Series, it measures just 70 x 74 stitches. Not a cow like the other two, we love her colors of DMC and classic Colorworks in here!!! This would make a charming round cushion too.
  • The Milk & Cream Co -- Back to cows! These are festive -- each has his own Quaker motif coat. Then trees are fun -- each has swirls for the greenery. Even the scalloped hills are charming, and super-high in pattern repeat like the flowers. 123 x 127 -- about 7 x 7 on 18/36ct. Eye-catching!


Plum Street Samplers Babushka's Bees - click for more Plum Street Samplers Pennsylvania Fraktur - click for more Pennsylvania Fraktur & Babushka's Bees
  • Pennsylvania Fraktur reminds me of Paulette's set of 4 seasons that we already have. Same flowing vine style, same shape... this one uses Bullfrog, Old Red Paint, Charcoal, Sanguine, Maple Syrup. Hazelnut and Mulberry hand-dyeds -- pretty cinnamon reds and that warm olive green. Finishes 7 x 3-1/2 on 18or 36ct.
  • Babushka's Bees -- Here she is in the Spring and Summer, instead of in her pumpkin patch in the Fall. Lots of bee hives all over that feature patterned stitching on them, all the little flying bees are so cute! I know you can't really see them from the picture, but they all have little feet, wings and stingers! All the dangling vines add pink and green details... this finishes approx 8 x 4-1/2 and is stitched using Classic and Weeks hand-dyed flosses.
Plum Street Samplers Soul Sisters - click for more Plum Street Samplers A Hundred Ways - click for more

A Hundred Ways and Soul Sisters
Friendship and Love... A matching set of designs with a neat shape and simple, bold font.

A Hundred Ways could be a wedding announcement.
Soul Sisters could be a really neat gift for a friend.

I think you could make that one into a two-sided pin cushion -- each half is 60 x 70 -- so it could be a 3 x 4 cushion... or you could even stitch the floral band 4 times and make a little mattress out of it!


Yuletide Shanty from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
Yuletide Shanty and Hello Winter
Plum Street Samplers has 4 new designs - these are just two!
  • Yuletide Shanty is a cute little cylinder/drum shaped pin cushion. Finishing about 5 x 5 it features Santa sailing towards your chimney!!!!!! SO DARN CUTE... the bottom features a verse: Old Saint Nick, He sails the seas, his beard grows long so he won't freeze! He's standing on his poop deck on the top of the drum... verse on the bottom.

    The sides are also super-cool -- all the way around there is a big whale under the sea - amidst seaweed, fish, a little decorated Christmas tree, and wrapped presents!!! Hello Winter from Plum Street Samplers - click for moreWay up there on the creative scale... this is a keeper!!!! Presented as a chart, stitched with DMC or hand-dyeds.

  • Hello Winter - The 4th of the seasons, this features wintery greenery, cardinals and a little winter wren. Measuring approx 4-1/2 x 9... this whole set has been charming. Contemporary, clean, pretty, very different from a lot of Paulette's other designs... I think you could hang these in anyone's house, anyone's office, anywhere... and they'd be right at home!

Sampler House #VI from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Sampler House #V from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Sampler Houses #V and VI... obviously joining the first 4 in this series!
Two new big houses by Plum Street Samplers... Paulette is celebrating the gorgeous pieces of real estate that grace samplers through time!
  • #5 Actually looks like a contemporary red brick house in my neighborhood! I had to do a double-take! I think she's playing the reds and blacks against each other - black and red birds - very organized. The windows and shingles on the roof are repeating patterns... and then the white windows and the white birds eyes! Very crisp!
  • #6 Is simply gorgeous! I'd like to live here! All Toasted Marshmallow and Charcoal hand-dyeds... it's dark and quiet, stately and organized. A well manicured garden of trees on the estate... I Love everything about this one!

Heritage Sampler from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Blackbird Fraktur from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Hello Fall from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
Six New Designs Have Arrived
  • Heritage Sampler -- Honoring the American flag and it's history from the colonies to today, it features a stanza from America The Beautiful as the sampler verse. There are a lot of charming design elements in here... Pilgrims, Soldiers, mountains, waves and prairie corn... and a pristine White House. Pretty border, pretty colors! Measuring approx 9 x 10 on 36ct, choose the hand-dyeds or DMC it's charted for.
  • Blackbird Fraktur -- Something for Autumn -- that big harvest moon, the sunflowers and that green pumpkin... and all the acorns scattered everywhere, the gorgeous blackbirds are striking against all the colorful background. Measuring a generous 13 x 6-ish in size on 36ct, the moon and birds will really highlight the color variations of your hand-dyed flosses. I love that little wrought iron fence down at the bottom!
  • Hello Fall -- The third of Paulette's 4-season set, this if a generous vine of pumpkins and leaves, with a plain blackbird (as compared to those Fraktur birds!) and a quilt-motif moon! Pretty colors, this finishes rather large -- like the Spring and Summer already released -- at 8-1/2 x 4-1/2.

Friends of the Hart from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
Friends of the Hart -- This is gorgeous! It features a Hart (a red deer that Paulette made decided to do in grey instead!) leaping among lavish Fall foliage. There are forest animals all over in here -- squirrels, birds and a little fox -- and lots of stunning florals like those pomegranites.

Love it, Love it... it finishes approx 13 x 8-1/2. Lots of movement, lots of details!


A Thousand Hills from Plum Street Samplers Berry Cottage from Plum Street Samplers Judge Not from Plum Street Samplers
New from Plum Street Samplers
Paulette was here this weekend for our Summer Stitching Event. All the models of her pretty new things are (and were) here... so it was fun to receive her e-mail about them... WHILE she was teaching at our event!!! Everyone had first 'dibs!' -- because she brought the charts along AHEAD OF HER RELEASE to us!!! Charming designs, all are presented in chart format and are here NOW.
  • A Thousand Hills -- Celebrating little creatures of God, Paulette wanted to add more color -- besides orange and black -- to an Autumnal scene. Measuring approx 8-1/2 x 11, lots of hand-dyed cottons used, and verse is stitched over one. I love all those sheep and cattle ont he rolling hills!
  • Berry Cottage -- SUPER charming... the little berry-colored house has the most interesting garden -- aren't the sheep on the hills fun? and the berries, and the miniature house on the vine...! Finishes approx 5 x 6 -- that little house is over one. Hand-dyed cottons, with DMC conversions if you need them!
  • Judge Not -- We really like this one! check out all those little sheepies -- every one of them is different! Finishing approx 12 x 5 on 36ct, Paulette has a little black and brown throughout... but lots of fun details on each little plump fluff of a sheep!
  • Sampler House III from Plum Street Samplers
  • Sampler House III -- The next in this set of houses (no idea how many there will be in all), each measures 98 x 99 in stitch count -- so all the same size. This one is patriotic -- cute row of decked-out sheep on there, the other is for Fall. Gorgeous colors in #3, pretty repeats in the motifs... you get lots of organized pattern in the summer evergreens, repeating scallops in the sheep, and the bold checkerboards of the window panes



Hello Summer from Plum Street Samplers Mariner's Drum from Plum Street Samplers Sampler House I from Plum Street Samplers Sampler House II from Plum Street Samplers
New Releases
from Plum Street Samplers
Expected this week are four charts by Paulette Stewart of Plum Street Samplers.
  • Hello Summer is the second of the seasons -- Spring was released this March. Very delicate and flowing, really a pretty presentation, this measures 150 x 83 in stitch count, so would be 4-1/2 x 8 on 36ct -- a generous size! Would make a nice wedge-shaped stand-up for your bookshelves.
  • Mariner's Drum -- Goes with the new Cape Cod Keeps, this features a pirate who has dropped anchor to search for sunken treasure. Around the sides of the little drum, you see a swimming mermaid, and you can follow that anchor chain all the way over the edge to the bottom of the sea. Finishes about 3 inches in diameter -- super cute!
  • Sampler Houses I & II -- Neat sampler houses both with urns of lavish florals... add a border and some *Family Established* dates, and you have small samplers! Each measures approx 6 x 6 on 32ct... and are coded for Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses.

Cape Cod Keeps from Plum Street Samplers
Cape Cod Keeps
Aren't these cute? Plum Street has a pair of 3 x 4 inch (on 18/36ct fabric) pin cushions that are stitched with hand-dyed flosses on any neutral fabric you like! *Remember Me, Friends are We.*

These would be fun nestled together in a dish -- make them face each other... they are just small and sweet. Lady Dot's 'Rainy' baby ball fringe is the featured trim on them... super good dusky color to have on hand in your stash to finish other things, too! Cape Cod Keeps is just one of Plum Street's new charts.


Cotton Bird from Plum Street Samplers
Cotton Bird
A little bird singing up high on the housetop -- they can hear him in the cotton fields. Finishing approx 7 x 6 on 18/36ct, just a sweet piece.

The featured trim in the pic is Lady Dot's Snow colored chenille... Mossy, Rainy, or a red-tone would be stunning on here as well.

Lesson TWO of the Serial Bowl Collection
You'll remember that Paulette has a small collection of kits called her Serial Bowl Series. She released each design in kit format, and has waited a year to release the same design only in chart format. Here is Lesson Two.

She has added several different flag options for other countries: Canada, France, Netherlands, Ireland, Scotland, Great Britain, England, Germany, Italy and Russia!



Teenie Weenie from Plum Street Samplers Hello Spring from Plum Street Samplers
Plum Street Samplers -- has four new designs -- another darling wiener dog one and a trio for Spring!
  • Teenie Weenies -- Everybody loves these! Companions to her Halloween, Spring, Thanksgiving, Winter and Patriotic Puppies, who knew little dogs could be so festive! Stitch them on just about anything you want -- (they finish 3-1/2 x 9 on 36ct) -- using hand-dyeds or DMC, it is charted for both. A lovely, Springtime dusty purple/gray colorway, checkout the teenie-weenie Weenie dog and his teenie weenie hydrant!
  • Hello Spring -- This is an elegant little design! Stitched on a light 36ct, with Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses or DMC, the colors are soft and complement each other beautifully.

The delightful running bunny in her garden finishes approx 8 x 4-1/2... just beautiful! Lady Dot mini-ball fringe trim is featured on the model.

Sew Sisters from Plum Street Samplers Sew Sisters
How cute are these two? A pair of 'well-stuffed stitchers' they look like they are converging on the fountain of youth -- the utopia of a tomato-pin-cushion tree -- ENDLESS pins and needles! I love the polka dot flowers, and that pile of tomatoes is delightful! This would make a fun pillow in a stitching chair, a neat sign into your stitching area, or a huge pin cushion to hold your endless stash of needles! (But they would get lost in there!)

Finishes approx 8 x 4-1/2 on 36ct, this is stitched with Weeks and Classic hand-dyeds of Chili Pepper, Olde Gold, Olive Branch... a lovely color collection.


Hare's Hunt from Plum Street Samplers Hare's Hunt
Another Skinny Rabbit Family pic! This joins Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter as well as Christmas and Halloween -- this one busy mom! This time, we're gathering eggs for Easter. Stitched on 36ct, this finishes approx 8 x 5, and uses Weeks or DMC flosses.

You know... you could stitch just one flower and mom and one baby... and make that a cushion to tuck into a basket display - it'd be about 3 x 4! Same design flavor... less than half the stitching, and that's good if you are on a *stitching time budget!*



Kringle & Woolard from Plum Street Samplers 1831 Christmas from Plum Street Samplers Jacks's Sweet Shoppe Merry Friends from Plum Street Samplers Pomegranate Santa from Plum Street Samplers
Four New Designs

  • Jacks's Sweet Shoppe Merry Friends -- Another of Paulette's tart tin designs, I think Santa is skating with a bitty snowman in his mittens, and the little guy is trimming the tree!

Olga's Autumn Stocking from Plum Street Samplers
Olga's Autumn Stocking
Here's a neat shape for needlework finishing ... WHO SAYS stockings are just for Christmas time??? Stitched on 36ct linen, this little guy (stitch count of 152 x 333!) finishes a whopping 18 inches in length... lots of room in there if it gets filled with Autumn twigs and berry garlands.

Gorgeous Autumnal colors, Miss Olga is guarding her pumpkin garden from those pesky crows overhead. Just charming... and a refreshing shape to something for Autumn!


Siren Cove from Plum Street Samplers Turkey Bay from Plum Street Samplers
Turkey Bay and Siren Cove
Such a cute pair of designs, the Pilgrim Man from Turkey Bay is on the hunt for 'something' but probably not a turkey! He's got a pretty fancy boat to boot! Well... the sweet songs of the Pilgrim mermaids are luring him... to dinner we suppose??? We can only imagine!

These charts are offered separately -- same stitch count, same fabric, same color scheme, same CHARMING sea creatures, fish and motifs -- and they both finish approx 7-1/2 x 5 on 32ct. Just super-cute, especially if your Thanksgiving happens near the coastline!


Autumn Ewe from Plum Street Samplers
Autumn Ewe
A small design of a sheep grazing, on his browning hills of pumpkins, underneath the quickly-turning leaves... that are beginning to swirl!!! Well, you know, imagine a little!

A sweet design, it'd be a good size for a pin cushion, just a quick-stitch!


The Adams Family from Plum Street Samplers
The Adams Family
Not Gomez and Morticia... this is John and Abigaill. The Adams Family is getting ready for Thanksgiving out in their garden of pumpkins and ghords. Actually, I think there is a graveyard down there -- you could make the stones look more like squash if you want!

Stitch count is 144 x 73, great Autumnal color in this, the vine is cool, and the owl is too cute up there!

Serial Bowl A Bowl Full of Scaries #1 from Plum Street Samplers

  • Babushka's Blossoms from Plum Street Samplers Babushka's Blossoms
    Another of Paulette's fun Autumnal designs... this one features Babushka on top of her enormous pumpkin (she used a ladder to get up there). We presume she grew that pumpkin in her lush garden of acorn and golden flowers.

    Cute little bird with his elegant little house... the stitch count on this is 139 x 130, it's worked on 36cy, and uses mostly hand-dyed flosses. Presented as a chart.

He chose to take it as a compliment, considering the animal's strength. The elephant became the Republican image when a cartoonist named Thomas Nast illustrated a donkey in a lion's skin scaring away zoo animals; one of the animals bellowing back was an elephant, also known for its strength, and labeled "The Republican Vote," Both designs measure about 55 x 60 stitches in size and call for Gentle Art's Freedom, Mulberry and Oatmeal hand-dyed floss.

    Love One Another from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Love One Another

    Stitched on hand-dyed linen, it uses Classic Colorworks flosses and has a stitch count of 133 x 77. Offered as a chart... just a cute thing.


    Autumn Fraktur from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Autumn Fraktur
    Autumn Fraktur at first sight looks symetric with the two birds and the central vine... but then everything else is different! Every flower and berry is lush and colorful... and different from everyone else! Inspired by the Pennsylvania immigrants from Germany and their ink and watercolor art -- Fraktur.

    The stitch count is 239 x 107, Gentle Art Sampler Threads are featured. Nutmeg, Old Hickory, Sarsaparilla, Aged Pewter, Piney Woods, Brandy, Espresso Bean, and Wood Trail -- yummy!!!

    A Ghoultide Welcome from Plum Street Samplers - click for more A Ghoultide Welcome
    This is a fun piece with a Halloween flavor -- although that doesn't jump right out at you at first. Quite a large piece, this measures 332 x 176 in stitch count -- which translates to 11 x 21 on 32ct! Choose a pretty hand-dyed or distress it yourself after you've stitched it, the whole thing is worked in DMC or Needlepoint Inc silk, but I bet you can convert into your over-dyed flosses you already have, as another alternative.

    So many neat things in this sampler -- the involved acorn border, the lavish urn of flowers to the left of the house, and the house itself -- lots and lots of solid stitching there!! (save that fill-in work for late night work ro a car trip!!) Next, that lacy willow tree with the moon peeking out -- can you see the yellow sampler/quaker stars in the sky? Finally, the dead-give-away... the little witch standing there!!! I see two distinct parts in this sampler, as well... you could do just the house and urn, or the other side -- the witch, her horse and tree! Which ever part you choose, this has a lot of charm and is very eyecatching!!


    Autumn Posey from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Autumn Posey
    This is a pretty piece reminiscent of Crewel Embroidery patterns. You'll need to choose a 36ct linen to work this on if you want to fit it into the top of a 6-inch sewing box. (You might have that box already; if you are on the Blackbird Sewing Box Automatic ship, your box is black.)

    (Changing the light rik-rak trim to a darker color as well would be a personal choice of mine!) Anyway, a pretty design, very traditional and primitive... it is coded for DMC or Weeks overdyed flosses. Talk to us about color choices on these boxes!


    Count Twice, Stitch Once! from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Count Twice, Stitch Once!
    Plum Street Samplings has five tremendous new pieces we brought home from Market... and even though this one wasn't the largest or most involved of them... it DEFINITELY belongs STITCHED in the home of every needleworker!!!!!

    Measuring 145 x 49 stitches, choose a favorite fabric and grab hand-dyeds from your stash. It calls for Classic Colorworks or DMC colors. You could frame this... but wouldn't a walnut shell stuffed cushion be fun too? Please do not miss Mr Rip-It down there on the right... I think he's after a fly! So DARN cute, this is offered as a chart. Wouldn't it be fun to stitch for your girlfriend who is always ripping stuff out?


    True Friendship from Plum Street Samplers - click for more True Friendship
    *True Friendship is a plant of slow growth.* What a pretty piece -- very organized in arangement - it looks like it has 5 sections -- the urn, the vertical house, horizontal yard -(with the cute doggies!) the vertical garden vine, and another horizontal block for the verse.

    Full of great Sampler Thread hand-dyed color, the design size is only 91 x 95 so it finishes approx 5 x 5 on a 32ct-ish fabric. Offered as a chart.


    Wintertide Friends from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
    Wintertide Friends
    A pair of wintery stockings, the trees are just as quiet as the snowmen! Each stocking measures 40 x 120 in stitch count -- just 2-1/2 x 7-1/2 on 32ct!!!

    Little bitty things, stitch them over one on something and finish them close to the stitching -- they can be ornament sized easily. Offered as the chart.


    Winter Wienerland from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Winter Wienerland
    Well... if you liked *Halloweenies,* you'll have to have Winter Wienerland, too!!! Another pair of Weenie Dogs, all decked out for the season.

    It features pretty red and green hand-dyeds along with some of the same design elements as the Halloween piece, but this time we have a Santa hat and some snowmen to *visit* in the yard! Offered as a chart, stitch count is 170 x 73, and it can be worked on any fabric that makes you happy!


    Cinnamon Stars from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Cinnamon Stars
    LOOK at this charming stone cottage with Cinnamon Stars floating from its chimney! The Autumn Garden is ready to Harvest -- that little scarecrow is doing his job keeping all the birds away -- you can tell, because the seeds are still in the sunflowers, the corn is still on the stalks and the pumpkins are plump and sun-bronzed. What a serene scene!

    Stitched on any pretty brown or gold-ish fabric you like, the stitch count on this is 168 x 100. (Approx 10-1/2 x 6 on 32ct.) It uses 20 different shades of DMC or Weeks and Gentle Art hand-dyed flosses -- all just *yummy-skummy* colors!!!!!! I'm not sure which design element is my favorite in here... the sweeping stars, the cobbled cottage walls or that Harvest Garden! But the little scarecrow is pretty darn cute, too! Offered as a chart.


    My Dearest Friend from Plum Street Samplers - click for more My Dearest Friend
    This is a tribute to John and Abigail Adams who were married in 1764, but spent much of their married life separated because John was such a busy guy! There are 4 decades of letters they exchanged surviving today. Pretty neat... but you ARE allowed to change some of that info and make this piece you own!

    With a stitch count of 195 x 108, this'll finish approx 12 x 7 on 32ct... put your wedding date in there... or change that date and the verse as well!


    Ladies' Maids from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Ladies' Maids
    I think this celebrates all the Ladies Maids! Paulette has a ditty on the chart about the household status of the maids -- higher than housekeepers... interesting!

    This is quite large -- it measures 350 x 195 in stitch count.


    A Yuletide Welcome from Plum Street Samplers - click for more A Yuletide Welcome
    A fun, non-symmetric border surrounds the regal house, and at first this doesn't look Christmassy. LOOK, can you see Santa, his reindeer(actually there are two) and sleigh? 333 x 172 in stitch count -- finished size will vary depending on fabric you choose. (11 x 21-ish on 32ct.)

    This is a charming piece! Pretty non-traditional Christmassy colors -- I guess because of the golden house, the motifs are really pretty, and I LOVE that little Santa and his deer!


    Rubie Owl's Sampler from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Rubie Owl's Sampler
    Wisdom is better than rubies... A great verse, tucked into a stunning Autumnal scene -- that tree is KILLER!

    Stitched with Belle Soie Silk or DMC this finishes approx 11 x 11 on 32ct -- but you can choose any color and size you like to work it on. Just pick something that accents those gorgeous colors!


    A Red Cottage from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
    A Red Cottage
    This is just that! Actually a pair of charming red houses with the wildly primitive garden of flowers... this finishes approx 6 x 6 on 28 to 32ct... and is stitched with either DMC or Gentle Art hand-dyed flosses.

    The verse that inspired the piece is from Proverbs 31... *Mom isn't afraid of the cold winter for her family (or bad things happening) because she has clothed them in scarlet (she's made sure they have warm clothes and love.)* (a little 20th century translation in there!) A Red Cottage would be pretty stitched on something brownish... it is offered as a chart.


    Vexation Sampler from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Vexation Sampler
    OH... I LOVE this! It's an antique multiplication table decorated with sampler motifs and the greatest verse! *Multiplication is Vexation. Division is as bad. The rule of three doth puzzle me, and Practice drives me mad!* Turns out that the verse is from a 1570 document titled 'A Description of the Admiral Table of Logarithmes' by Scottish mathematician John Napier. (Smart Guy!) And... here is something else fun to document in a note on the back of your finished piece; an 18th-Century Story Problem (which I hated in school!) by Elizabeth Bradford. 'A Lady to adorn her face, bought 18 ells of Brussels Lace for 15 Guineas; Now I say, How much a Yard did madam pay?'

    Offered as a chart, this has a stitch count of 318 x 198. Worked in only 5 colors of silk or DMC, choose any fabric and threads you wish!!! You could even dig out some Blackbird or Shakespeare's Peddler Urn or border designs to dress this up a bit -- but don't change A THING about that table or the verse!!!


    Halloweenies from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Halloweenies
    Well... if this isn't the cutest picture for Halloween! A pair of festive dachshunds dressed for The Season, do you think they are deciding who gets to use the fire hydrant first? Plum Street delivers this cute design -- stitch count of 157 x 65 that will look great on tons of different fabric choices.

    Worked with Gentle Art and Crescent Colours hand-dyed flosses, Paulette has kind of dedicated this pattern to her little Yorkie -- a most mischievous little beast! Offered as a chart -- reminds me of her Boris and Olga pair!


    Brother's Keeper from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Brother's Keeper
    The story of Cain and Abel in the Garden of Eden. Actually, not quite such a nice story after all... Paulette has re-told the story in this captivating piece of 10 blocks. So... I dunno if you want to hang something on your wall that talks about anger, jealously and murder... but the designs in the blocks are really neat... and if you like those... leave off some of the historic verse???

    Offered as the chart, this has a stitch count of 378 x 150. One over one stitching is featured in some of the squares.


    Sergei from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Sergei
    Here is a plump redbird tucked amidst a festive alphabet and pretty quilt-inspired motifs. Companioning Boris and Olga -- two cats with extra personality!

    Sergei finishes approx 5 x 5 and is offered as a chart. Just darling!

    The Flood from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
    The Flood
    Paulette has outdone herself with this charming and HUGE Noah's Ark piece! Offered in chart format, coded for either 36 different colors of silk or DMC floss, it measures a whopping 453 x 315 stitches... so on 32ct, it finishes approx 28 x 20. All the motifs are whimsical and stylized... the clouds are billow-y, the raindrops huge! The trees are neat, the animals scattered everywhere... so much to see... and stitch! The ark looks like an inlaid wooden masterpiece, and there are even hearts in the roof shingles.


    Boris from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Boris
    Mr Boris is Ms Olga's festive friend!!!!! He's the dog, she's the cat, this pair is just the best! He doesn't look any happier about standing here for us than she does, maybe because his alphabet is all messy up there??? We have Olga stitched over one thread as a shop model, and this little guy is next!

    Charted for either DMC or Crescent Colours hand-dyeds, go ahead... Make His Day... I bet he still won't smile! Offered as a chart, stitch count is 110 square.


    Olga from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Olga
    Oh my gosh, isn't this the cutest little cat? Stripes and stars, even her pumpkins and flowers have attitude! Approx 100 x 100 stitches, she is stitched in Crescent Colours hand dyed flosses or DMC.

    Stitch her beneath her sky of alphabet letters, or leave them off... this will be charming either way! Offered as a chart.


    Paradise Lost from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Paradise Lost
    For all you Adam and Eve/Garden of Eden Sampler-lovers... this is awesome! The trees, the peacocks, all the little animals and details everywhere... just awesome!

    Stitch count of a whopping 417 x 184 (that's 12 x 26 on 32ct!!!), lots of 'movement' in all the charming motifs! Offered as a chart.


    Still Waters from Plum Street Samplers - click for more Still Waters
    Plum Street Samplers has some lovely new designs... I liked 7 of them... Still Waters is just one! A peaceful, pastoral scene, The Lord is My Shepherd verse is from Psalm 23. Finishing approx 10 x 10 on 36ct linen, the motifs scattered throughout this piece are whimsical and cheery. There are a few of them that are stitched over one thread, and predominant colors for the entire piece are greens, golds, and taupes.

    Charted for DMC floss, you could find some pretty overdyeds, and actually, I think you could even split this piece into three separate ones, if you like! Make sure to see the rest of the Plum Street things... good designs! Offered as a chart.


    Give from Plum Street Samplers - click for more
    Give, Gather, Gobble
    A trio of matching designs, each of these if offered as an individual chart, each finishes approx 8 x 8 on 32ct linen, and the trio shares the same 5 colors of browns, green grays, and rosewood! Reminding me of stenciled designs from 200 years ago, these are perfect for a dining room or family room.

    Even though they all share the same colors, 975, 3021, 3051, 3828 and 3858... each looks different from the other... but they go together so beautifully. You might even have some overdyeds you'll want to add. Simple cross stitches, they're a 'quick-stitch!'
