Welcome to our Last Chance Page! Just a few things that have been past favorites... or little things that have been forgotten over time. Maybe the last one of something? Possibly something we can no longer order from Designers? This Last Change Page is full of fun, LAST-CHANCE Treats! You can see the original price in the dropdown, as well as the Sale Price. All Sales are Final. In-Stock only! Enjoy the Browse... we hope you find something that needs a new home in your stitching stash!
![]() We've cleaned off our old Last Chance Table in the shop, and re-freshed with a whole new batch of cool stuff! A lot of this is on our Last Chance Page of the website - but not all of it. I took some quick pics right after we fluffed and buffed... but this is a busy table in the shop... and will change daily! I've put tons of it on this LAST CHANCE PAGE... all 50% Off. Have fun browsing... we're continually adding to this page, too! We try to group these together by designer, but they are definitely not alphabetical! REMEMBER, you can put your cursor over each individual pic to see its name and its designer. Scroll down and enjoy! | ||||
![]() Amelia Prescott Amelia Prescott and How Her Parents Did Educate Her - This is a Kathy Barrick original design, inspired by all the charming antique multiplication table samplers. She's done Algerian Eyes and Rhodes in the alphabets, and included that verse about Amelia's Parents! Stitch count is a mystery until I can read the chart... but it will probably be generous in size... and gosh, the math actually STILL works - not like that 'new math stuff!' | ||||

![]() More Feed Sacks Here come more fun designs that are meant to finish into little 'sacks' to display or use! Joining the Reindeer, Sheep, Chicken and Halloween Feed sacks we already have, these are offered as separate charts. Stitched on Picture This Plus' 32ct Faun hand-dyed linen, with regular DMC floss, they finish approx 8 x 9. They would be SUPER CUTE finished as directed (even the finisher's contact info is on here for you!) and filled with sand or something and used as a door stop. What a fun and unexpected way to display your needlework! You could also make them into a little pillowcase to go over a microwaveable sack of rice or corn (or whatever you like inside yours) to use as a warming sack for cold hands and feet! A fun collection of designs so far. | ||||
| ||||
![]() The Mill House Well, definitely quieter than the Witch Training Academy! Larger-than-life butterflies and that owl in the sky... you know, I kind of like this without all that above and just the mill, alphabet, fence and that cool stream with all the fish and the snake! (Just make the grass come down below the pickets, and you can even leave off the words!) The butterflies are pretty just by themselves and they'd make a gorgeous double-sided pin cushion - one on the top side, one on the bottom side. | ||||
![]() Frankie, Francie, I Give you My hand and Good and Proper Kathy Barrick has some fun things... and I threw in an old surprise, as well.

![]() More Cookie Cutters She's into something with these cute little filled-in shapes! Collections #3 and 4, She has the same shapes in both of these - reversed them - and filled them in with pretty florals. Finished as little pin cushions... these are garnished with old buttons. The designs across all 4 charts are charming... and making spectacular filled bowls of little stitched curiosities! | ||||

![]() Love and Joy What a pretty pair of small cushion designs. By Cosford Rise, Kelly has chosen a deep green fabric to set-off her DMC 3865 Winter White blackwork stitching, and then accented with Gentle Art's Grecian Gold for her sentiments. Trim is vintage mini garland - which we carry! Anyway, think about deep colors of fabric - reds, blues... maybe do the wording in metallic? These are actually very simple but so classic and eyecatching. Both designs come in the single chart. | ||||
Fanny Aujas 1906Wow, what a beautiful antique sampler! Really just a simple, willow-y border and small pots near the bottom... the grand alphabets in this really bring it to life! Measuring 384 x 308 -- this will finish a generous 17 x 21 on 36ct. Coded for silks or DMC... the colors are mostly that dark burgandy with medium mossy greens. There is actually quite a bit of very pale pink and cream in this... it's in the border and highlights that pretty alphabet in the center. Presented in leaflet format; the chart is huge and in color. Silks available separately. | ||||
New Needle Minders by Cherry Hill Stitchery! Acrylic or Enameled - Take your pick! Cherry Hill Stitchery has taken the artwork from her Miss Hollybird and Luna cross stitch designs and made them into beautiful enameled minders.Super-Stong magnets on the backs, they measure approx 1-1/2 inches in size. THEN, she has her cute artwork on acrylic pieces as well! Again 1-1/2 inches in size, the magnets on these are actually embedded inside the acrylic layers so without the second loose backing magnet, these are flat and lightweight! Each comes with that film-sheet cling covering that you will initially have to pull off the piece - but that keeps it from getting scratched before you own it. Delightful designs... they make you smile. We especially like the LIGHTWEIGHT feel of the acrylic pieces! | ||||
![]() The Cupid Sampler from Cherry Hill Stitchery Cherry Hill Stitchery has new designs with Valentines and Spring in mind. Printed with both black and white and charts in color, both are coded for DMC floss. The Cupid Sampler can be done with one shade of red hand-dyed or a solid DMC. It measures 5 x 11 on 16/32ct. | ||||
Sherman the Fox -Sweater Weatherfrom Cherry Hill Stitchery
| ||||
![]() Meowster Mash and Merry Meowmas! For you Cat Lovers! from Stitchy Prose A Pair of Cute Biscornu Designs by Stitchy Prose... Work these on any fabric you like - they measure 60 x 60 in stitch count - so will finish about 4 inches on 14ct. Coded for DMC, they feature little kitties all dressed up for the seasons, and they are CUTE!
| ||||
Follow The Yellow Brick RoadThis is a sweet, simple rendition of the story of The Wizard of Oz... cross-stitch-style. When stitched on 14ct, this'll finish approx 9 x 12-1/2 and is worked with 27 shades of DMC. It would be cute finished into a 6-sided stuffed fabric block... fun to turn it around in your hands to follow the story! | ||||
![]() All The Fun Of The Fair Oh we might not be going to The Fair much in 2020... but we used to... and we will again! Now it means greasy food, and kind of getting sick watching the crazy rides. The 4-H exhibits are neat... the booths selling ironing board covers - not so much. So WHY do we remember it so well from when we were little? Everything must have been colorful back then, the candy was delicious, and those rides didn't make you sick - just super scared! This is a fun scene from your memory - measuring 123 x 176 - so 9 x 12 on 28ct. Coded for DMC, choose a fun background fabric color so the white will show up, and for heavens sake, add some metallics and beads to this! What a fun summer decoration to get out and display from June to September! | ||||
![]() Woodland Sampler and Sampler Primitif III Hereare more delightful quaker-inspired samplers by Marjorie Massey. Theyd be neat hanging in a mountain cabin because they feature deer, evergreens, squirrels and acorns, and have a 'coverlet feel' to them because of the reverse alphabet at the bottom. Woodland Sampler Stitched in only one or two colors - choose a hand-dyed that you like against a background fabric that you like - absolutely nothing is called on the chart! Put your family initial in the center circle... and you know what? You can even change the alphabet to spell anything else besides THE ALPHABET! Stitch count is approx 170 x 200, the chart is nice and big, and she does have it printed in two colors of ink. Sampler Primitif III Measures 261 x 198, pretty Quaker border on this! | ||||

![]() Fresh Picked Lavender A pretty little pillow, cushion or mat design. This is done with Gentle Art Sampler Threads and Weeks hand-dyeds on a crispy white background, measuring 9 x 5-1/2 on 32. | ||||
![]() How does Your Garden Grow? This chart contains 11 different 40 x 40 designs that you can mix and match any way you like. Stitched with regular DMC, on neutral 32ct Platinum linen... you could add beads to these, glass Mill Hill Treasures, a little metallic glitz if you wanted. Maybe choose a sky-blue hand-dyed fabric... or make a bunch of stand-alone blocks and re-arrange them... or make plant pokes out of them. There are a million possibilities because they all go together! | ||||
![]() Susie Susie Samplermaker from Lindy Stitches Susie Susie Samplermaker is a companion to Mary Mary Needleworker. Finishing about 12-1/2 x 10 on 32ct, it's stitched Classic, Weeks and DMC. The verse asks about Susie's garden, which is probably NOT growing too well as she is inside stitching samplers rather than keeping away the hungry deer in her yard! | ||||
![]() Sea Time from Fairy Wool in the Wood Here is a fun design that is made up of 8 smaller insets. Stitched on 36ct Country Vintage Mocha Linen (any count will do) it finishes 8 x 12. Coded for DMC, this is a perfect design to break up and finish into individual pin cushions for a fun basket or tray display. Super charming that way... you get glimpses of a seafaring family and life at the beach! | ||||

Sewing LavenderThis is a neat pattern. It is a medley of antique sewing accessories and tools, all stitched with 26 various shades of DMC floss. The charts in here are huge, and all in color. You can stitch each 'thing' individually or do the entire medley, which measures 117 x 141 - so only 7 x 9 on 32ct! It looks a lot bigger than that, so the moral of this story is PIN CUSHIONS AND LITTLE SEWING CASES! That tape measure is about 15 x 60 the button card is only 34 x 34, the safety pin is only 10 x 30... these are enchanting little what-nots! Get the chart, and then figure out what you want to do with all the designs... this is a 'must have!' | ||||
![]() Lavender's Sprig This is a pretty medley of small designs that would make a lovely collection of individual pin cushions. The whole picture is 140 x 140 - so think you could break it up pretty easily into smaller sections. 26 shades of DMC floss called for. | ||||
![]() Where You Drop Your Anchor This nautical design celebrates 'home' with a mother and daughter (and the family puppy) waiting beachside for husband/dad to return from the sea. The lighthouse is leading his way. Stitched on a light blue with a mixture of Weeks, Gentle Art and DMC flosses it measures 180 x 143 - so 11 x 9 on a 28ct. | ||||
![]() Under The Mistletoe, Main Street, and Witch's Parking Finally A Farmgirl has some pretty cute releases for all year long!
| ||||
![]() Santa Claws Here's Matilda the Mouse and Oscar the Cat getting ready for the Big Day. So darn cute, it's hard to see, but there are tiny animals hiding in the gifts, the tree top, and Santa's arms. Finishes about 5 x 7 on 32ct... so smallish. | ||||
![]() Home is Coffee, Oscar the Cat and Catching Flies 4 New designs by Finally a Farm girl are here... and they just make you smile! Cute for Summer.
| ||||
![]() Matilda Mouse, Scarecrow Matilda, Matilda Sews, Miss Jenny and Jeremiah from Finally a Farmgirl Here are 5 cute little personalities all by new designer - Finally a Farmgirl. Presented as charts, they are all small, and stitched with a combo of DMC along with Weeks and Classic Colorworks hand-dyeds. The charts are in color... but a bit hard to see, so maybe blow them up a little.
| ||||
![]() Team Work, Show Your Teeth and More Hearts from Susanamm A trio of cheerful designs for your stitching fingers! By Susanammcrossstitch (which is a mouthfull to say!). All are offered as charts and coded for DMC floss.
| ||||
Cute Pumpkin and Cross Stitch Quilt #19 (Flag)We're crossing the holidays with these two new releases by Susanamm Cross Stitch. Really cute pieces both are presented as charts. Susana's charts can be a little challenging as the flag, for instance, is full coverage, and her symbols are quite similar side by side in the chart. Coded for DMC.
| ||||
![]() Cute Variety by Susanamm Cross Stitch! All of her designs are funky... and generally heavy on the stitch count. They are big, lots of solid worked areas, and they'll use tons of your DMC! Sometimes the charts are intense because they are so much solid stitching... but a lot of needleworkers really like that! The Skull - Oh my gosh, I think this is so cute! But, but, I think I would skip the pumpkin because the chart makes my head spin! (It's solid and about 80 x 80 stitches of 349, 606, 646, 720, 817 and 922 - it's a whopper!) The skeleton is so darn cute, and the whole thing uses only 9 shades of DMC... just super fun... so get out that floss! | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
Love CoffeeThis measures 118 x 114 - so it could be 6 x 7 on 18/36 ct. Choose an amber-colored background so you can skip all the background stitching - or even choose a different color - the retro red, along with the black and gray will look stunning on lots of different background colors. | ||||
Buildings and ColorsIsn't this one fun? It's a whole busy city full of funky apartment windows... colors everywhere... and neat shapes! I want to live in one of those! This is another solid design - be aware the chart is pretty intense, just a lot going on. Coded for 36 different DMC flosses, it measures a generous 140 x 160 - so 10 x 11 on 14ct. It's only 22,400 stitches though! (Maybe you could just get by with only the top half... or one of the top corners if you aren't ready for 22,400 stitches! | ||||
The Quilting FarmSame artsy flavor as the Buildings and Colors, this one could use a chestnut-colored background to save you thousands of stitches! I love the trees, and especially the little 'penny rug circles' in the grass! | ||||
Ewe and FriendsGosh, this is a cool design! The little birds are just the cutest, but that sheep's coat is the best! Find a pretty green material to stitch on, this measures 137 square - so about 10 x 10 on 14/28ct. The chart gets a little hard to read when you get into that sheep's coat... you'll need a little patience with that, but the overall effect is just awesome! | ||||

![]() Little House Haunted Another dinky design - a teeny weeny house on a hill haunted by a HUGE and scary ghost! Tiny Nativity and Little Lighthouse are small like this one -- they all finish ONE INCH in size if you go over one on 25ct! | ||||
The Little Irish CottageA BITTY 24 x 24 thing... stitch this on anything you want! Less than an inch over one on 28 or like 3-1/2 inches on 7ct! Bits of flosses from your stash, the roof is regular Cross Stitch with straight stitches over it to make it appear thatched. Check out the Lucky Landscaping as well! Cute, this is presented as a small chart. | ||||
The Little IglooOh, another charming ITTY BITTY design, this one is a wintery sky surrounding a little igloo -- complete with a dinky penguin that is only 7 stitches high!!! The entire picture measures only 24 x 24 stitches -- all of these are absolutely charming! Offered as a small chart. | ||||
![]() Wedding Cake - Your Color Wedding Cake - 'Your Color'! A simple tiered cake with special initials and date... you choose the colors of the wedding to work this in! Offered as the small chart, this finishes just 2 x 3, and it would make a SUPER CUTE gift tag!!! | ||||
The Flurries: Wintery Wonderfuls and Merry MomentsThese are small charts that each feature two SMALL designs that are supposed to be mini snow globes or those mini dome-globes (you know, the ones made out of plastic that are bitty!) The mini globes measure 24 x 25 stitches - so if you stitch them over one thread - they'll be an INCH in size. The mini domes are 18 x 24 - even smaller! Look past the finishing a little, and imagine a little bit smaller, a little more subtle... stitched on 32ct linen. The designs are petite and detailed, very cute! Charted for DMC or hand-dyeds. | ||||

from Blackbird Designs
| ||||
Needle #1 from Lila's Studio#1 was released in 2012. #1 measures 20 x 9 on 32ct, and is coded for 24 DMC flosses.. Even if you don't stitch the entire sampler... those little square scenes would make fun pin cushions! | ||||
![]() from Plum Street Samplers
| ||||
![]() Garden Sass from October House Robin used all her favorite colors in this piece... Red Pear, Hinter, Grits, Fathom, Winnie Blue and Rose Petal. Her sassy little floral basket in the center is accented by the borders of Quaker motifs and then calming leaves. She loves stuffing alphabets in small spaces... so X Y and Z just made it! | ||||
from The Blue Flower
| ||||
![]() Jeannine McGowan continues her gorgeous seasonal squirrels and acorns with Halloween! Halloween Acorns Delish! Stitched on a light neutral background, this is worked with hand-dyed flosses and DMC 730 and 371. Hard to see in the pic, it is trimmed with Lady Dot's Wizard (deep purple) hand-dyed chenille trim. Stitch count is 86 x 86. | ||||
![]() The Acorns These are absolutely stunning, and I do not know how you are going to choose just one or two as favorites. Her Acorn cushions all measure between 80 and 90 stitches square - so not too big. | ||||
![]() Lori from Pansy Patch Quilts and Stitchery is bursting with pretty new designs! Everything is offered in charts. Here we go!

![]() Presenting the Houses on Pumpkin Lane Pansy Patch Quilts is beginning a new 9-part series of Autumn houses - just like her Gingerbread Cottage Set! Here are the first six (you don't have to get all 9 and stitch them all - it's OK to pick and choose favorites - less stress!) The first 6 charts are ready now... the final three release in March '23. Lori has a fun freebie border chart to join this set together if you want to go that route, but they are shown as individual pin cushions on the chart covers as well. Anyway, pretty Fall colors, lots of fun quilt motifs decorating the houses, neat top and bottom borders... leave off the names of the houses if you want - and insert your own initials instead! Each house measures 97 x 87... is stitched with DELICIOUS colors of hand-dyeds (DMC conversions included) and finishes approx 5 x 5. Lady Dot trims are featured on the cushions. | ||||
| ||||
Calling of the Sea Pinkeeps & Pin Disk - This one is fun too! The chart contains all three designs - the round compass case, and both the whale and ship cushions. THINK you'll need multiple skeins of floss for that humongous whale! What a fun and festive set of designs!
| ||||
Presenting Caroline Amelia Trowell from With Thy NeedleBrenda Gervais has released a new sampler reproduction! Originally stitched by 10-yr old Caroline - a shepherd's daughter. Brenda tells us about Caroline, her family, where she lived and the significance of some of the motifs she chose for her sampler. The are photos of the original antique sampler in the leaflet as well. Packed with sweet motifs, there are 3 'sections' to this... lots of opportunity for small cushion take-outs... and a pretty sawtooth border. Stitched on 40ct hand-dyed linen by Seraphim, we have SEVERAL color options by Seraphim in various counts... so I am sure we can find you something lovely. Brenda uses a medley of DMC solids and Weeks hand-dyed flosses. | ||||
Tree of Life SamplerA lovely sampler - not too big either! Rose, butterscotch and gray colors, Tree of Life measures just 89 x 112, is worked with DMC and all three hand-dyed floss companies. On the 32ct Weeks Beige hand-dyed linen it calls for, this will finish just 5-1/2 x 7-1/2. Pretty floral motifs and the cute little house, Brenda shares that while taking the antique needlework out of its frame to better see the colors on the backside, she found a Spencerian Penmanship Lesson hand-sewn on the backside of the sampler. Was it a school lesson by the same set of hands as the sampler? Did she learn stitching and penmanship at the same school? We'll never know. Choose a smaller count of linen if you like... this will be charming no matter what you choose! Presented as a leaflet. | ||||

![]() Madonna & Child - A Work of Heart This gorgeous design belongs with Teresa's Angels! SUPER DETAILED stitching in these... they are not easy to follow, but so worth the effort if you can do them! Solid stitching, color changes everywhere - choose any fabric you like! Madonna and Child measures 126 x 135 so finishes approx 8 x 10 on 32ct. Kindred Spirits Finishing 10 x 11-ish on 32... love the patterns and colors in the dresses - aren't you glad we don't have to look like antique artwork? Makes me smile! | ||||
| ||||
![]() Stars from Teresa Kogut Each finishes about 4 inches on 30 or 32ct fabric. Not many other details yet, just cute little cushions and ornaments! Vonna Pfieffer is releasing a video finishing tutorial on these today, too! | ||||
More Theresa Kogut on Sale! Daisy Hill -- Finishes approx 6 x 4 on 30ct Weeks Onyx Linen. You could always stitch this on light fabric so it's easier to see and fill in that background with over-dyed black! | ||||

| ||||

The PsalmsRetiring! This is a small bit of stitching -- *the 23rd Psalm* is all it says. Linda is showing it with a bit of Scrapbooking artwork as the finishing. She's made a 'prayer card' of sorts by decorating a card with the printed psalm on one side, and old lace and buttons on the other -- so highlight the bit of stitching. Stitch count is 27 x 131, this is charted for DMC or hand-dyeds of Baby Spinach, Sable, and Artichoke! | ||||
![]() My 1st Christmas A mini-stocking ornament design, stitch this in honor of the first Christmas... or that of the new grandbaby!!! Worked in Weeks, Gentle Art and DMCs, it finishes a trite 1-1/2 x 1-3/4!!! Easy to finish into an ornament in any number of ways... it'd be fun to personalize with baby's name. | ||||
![]() My World from Threads That Bind This is a really cool punch needle piece that we have had in the shop this Fall... but I've somehow missed showing you on-line!!! One of my personal favorites... it is a round scene of a village in the four seasons! By Threads That Bind, it punches into a 6-inch round little rug, that we have perched on top of a painted shaker box. Look closely... you see the city in the Fall, farmyard in the Spring, seashore in the Summer, and mountains in the Winter. Lots of fun detail and pretty colors, this design is so unique and really charming! Offered as the design stamped onto khaki-colored weaver's cloth, you supply your punch needles and floss. Finally, American Roots -- a cute house-on-the-hill scene, I love the Penny Rug detail down in the yard. Punched with three strands, you can see lots of color movement in this one -- that is simply alternating colors of DMC in your needle as you change threads! This one finishes 5 x 5-3/4. | ||||
Grandma's HouseA neatly-kept house, lavish garden and lots of birds... the flag is a little saggy, but Grandma has been busy tending to that property!!! Finishing 4 x 8. | ||||
Spooktacular Night Just a bitty Punch needle design - 5 x 5 in size. This would be a nice and easy one to begin with, because it's not too involved. Lots of curves that follow each other, and lots of 'solid' spaces. | ||||
HildaIs she over-the-top, or what??? Hilda punches approx 5-1/2 inches square, and features a row of light-colored punches all around to highlight her! Remember, the roiling background is simply different colors of DMC! | ||||
![]() Trick or Treat I LOVE this green cyclops spider... he's leaving the web, complete with his Jack-O-Lantern Trick or Treat pail... to get the goods!!! How Charming!!! He measures approx 5-1/2 inches square, and is punched in DMC #580 green! Talk about personality! | ||||
![]() A Ride in The Country Artwork by Jane Wooster Scott, Stitch count of 625 x 490... 87 colors of DMC, this finishes approx 19-1/2 x 25 over one on 25ct fabric. Totally charming, how could you NOT love this scene??? | ||||
Santa's Bag of ToysAdapted from artwork by Ruth Sanderson, this masterpiece measures 450 x 444 stitches, and is worked in 88 different shades of DMC floss. Enchanting... QUITE the challenge as far as chart-following and color-changing... you have to be a special stitcher to get through one of these! Definite family heirlooms!!! | ||||
Clowning AroundAnother of Jane Wooster Scott's charming scenes of rural Americana at its best... this turn-of-the-century circus-in-the-park scene measures a HUGE 625 x 520 stitches -- 25 x 21 OVER ONE on 25ct! It calls for 89 colors of DMC... and 89 months (or years!) of your patience to get it done!!! Too charming for words! Offered as the chart. | ||||
Candied Apples and Candy CornJane Wooster Scott -- another super-busy fair scene! Remember in the old 'State Fair' movie with Ann Margaret and Pat Boone... all the family kept adding the whiskey to her Mom's prize-winning mincemeat? Mom's probably down there in the front celebrating her blue ribbon! Just full of details... think about that small take-out stitching idea if you're entering your own fair and haven't the time to finish this! 450 x 364 Stitches. | ||||
![]() Road Rage By Jane Wooster Scott, the old meets the new in this corner of American countryside! 450 x 377 Stitches. | ||||
![]() Tis The Season Another cheerful Santa... he's hanging the greenery boughs. 400 x 500... a little more on the generic side of Christmas... no children around... he's a lovely Christmas piece. Dona Gelsinger, artist. | ||||
![]() Town Christmas Tree Very Victorian, very large -- a whopping 450 x 502!!! Early dawn on Christmas Morning... lovely. Artist Ruth Sanderson. | ||||
![]() Santa and The Mouse Can you see the pic? Santa is handing a little mouse (dressed in his pajamas!) a tiny Christmas gift! His elf helper is there getting the rest of the presents under the tree... but the family cat is curious! Artwork by Scott Gustafson, this measures 450 x 524. | ||||
![]() Up On a Rooftop Can you imagine? The elves, the reindeer... and even the children peeking out the nursery window! Quite the classic, it measures 400 x 324 and is by artist Scott Gustafson. | ||||
![]() Boots This one is more contemporary... who's boots are those??? By artist JM Leotti, this measures 350 x 412. I thought it was a good addition to our collection simply *because* the lines are newer, the shading simpler... the 1950 and 1960 appeal -- that lots of us were around for!!! | ||||
| ||||
![]() Autumn Leaves & Pumpkins Please All are the same design format - 126 stitches in diameter, they finish 9 x 9 on 14/28ct. Another opportunity for neat fabrics, these use regular 'ol DMC. Halloween Night would be cool with metallics in there, a little opalescent for the moons - a lot of cool stuff on these. (If you do these over one thread on 28ct Lugana - which is actually fairly do-able for lots of us - they'll be only 4-1/2 inches round!) Terrific little round cushions! | ||||
![]() Presenting Just Nan's Merlin the Midnight Owl! Due in the Shop October 9th, Nan has a darling new little owl ornament pattern. She describes Merlin opening his starry eyes at midnight, under a silvery moon. Her newest little guy has a flat seamed bottom with wire feet to help him perch on any flat surface. Worked on 32ct Weeks Tin Roof Linen (stitching is full coverage, so linen will not show) with a combination of DMC and Weeks flosses, there is a bit of silver metallic in here as well. Eyes are sequins with beads, and there is an owl medallion charm on his back. His hat is a tiny purple crystal with silver sequin brim. His chart includes chart, instructions for stitching and finishing, multiple beads and sequins, owl head charmbead, and wire for feet. You'll need a bit of stuffing and a pin to attach his hat. Cute as can be... Nan has Merlin shown on a felt pumpkin she's had in her holiday decorations for years. It does not come with the pattern, so we suggest perching this little guy on those tiny real pumpkins! (Actually we think those small white ones are pretty cool for this.) (If you have been on our Just Nan ornament auto-ship -- you will get this little guy - but it's OK to call and check!) | ||||
![]() Just Nan has announced her Rose Heart Bunny Little Rose Heart Bunny will be on her way to us an a few weeks.... she is Nan's final little 1 x 1-1/2 inch mouse design. She has soft pink felt ears and a furry pom-pom tail... and she'll be precious as an ornament, pin keep, spool topper, ornament - anything you want! Stitched on 32ct white linen with shades of pink and green DMC, she is embellished with rose beads, along with her ears and tail. She is also wearing a tiny Rose Quartz heart HAT that is held in place with a tiny pearl pin. All of Nan's previous little bunnies are now retired, and Rose Heart is the last in the series. Her chart includes the pic, graph, instructions for stitching and assembly, overdyed wool for the ears, pom-pom tail, beads and pin. You'll need a tiny bit of batting to line/stuff her. | ||||
Presenting Madame Butterfly Mouse on a TinNan's last little mouse perched on her tin house will be here by the end of April! Madame is ready for the sunny flower-filled days of summer. She is wearing a gown of gorgeous butterflies and pretty pink rose stitches accented with sky blue and golden bronze beads. Her blue flower hat is pinned in place with three blue beads, so she's ready for a sudden gust of wind! Her tin perch is decorated with rings of blue and bronze butterflies set against a dramatic black background, and Nan has added blue scalloped trim along the edge. Inside Madame's tiny tin, you'll be able to tuck your tiny frayed-edge needlebook. It is decorated with butterfly stitches, an antique brass butterfly charm, and sparkling blue crystal. Both the mouse and book are stitched on Week's Dye Work's 32ct Linen color of hand-dyed linen using DMC floss from your stash. Included with the leaflet are all the stitching and finishing instructions, beads, flower hat, butterfly charm, needlebook felt, decorated metal tin, gold tail and Nan's signature button base with magnet. All you'll need is a tiny bit of fusible interfacing for the book and mouse. Too darn cute, Madame Butterfly is the final Mouse on a Tin. The Peacock and Bee Mice are sold out... but we still have Little Lady in Red Ladybug Mouse! | ||||
Presenting Just Nan's Newest Little Mouse-on-a-Tin - Lady in RedShe is the 4th in this series and ready for Spring in a beautiful costume of bitty ladybugs, greenery and pretty red and pink flowers. Garnished with red and gold beads, her flower hat is pinned in place with pearls, and even her tail is red! Perched atop her decorated 2-inch round tin, she is magnetized for stability. ![]() Inside the tin, you'll stitch the 1-1/4 needle mat decorated with more ladybugs and flowers. Mouse and needlebook are stitched on Weeks' hand-dyed Linen... and just as cute as can be! Nan's kit includes all the instructions for stitching and finishing plus the decorated tin, red tail, beads, burgundy pearl, flower bead, gold pearl, glass ladybug bead, read felt and the magnetized mouse button base. Kits are limited. | ||||
![]() Woman at a Pond An unfinished piece, it features 10 different alphabets... and has a woman sitting by a pond - holding her stitching! Kathleen thinks this is from the early 1800's, and it's extra-charming because the fabric is actually pieced together - probably because linen was so precious a find! 17 x 12 On 40ct linen. | ||||
L' Atelier de Zelie from Cmon MondeOK... I can't read French... so I am imagining this is telling me it is delightful apparel for your iron! Oh... Google Translator says it is The workshop Zelie! I have never seen a stitched iron cover, so I HAD to buy this!!! Everyone I know either uses their iron 20 hours a day, or 2 minutes a week! (My daughter doesn't even OWN an iron!) The design is cute -- the seamstress and her machine and quilts -- it is embellished with buttons and rik rak trim that you can find in your stash. There are DMC numbers given in the color key, and the stitch count is 66 x 78, but those are the only things I can read in this pattern. I think the spools of thread are Satin stitches, as well. Maybe there are finishing instructions in here... but I don't know! Regardless, I thought this was imaginative, unique and darn cute! Offered as a chart. | ||||
Au Pays aes TulipesCountry Tulips! I love this very organized little garden scene! Everything lined up straight in rows, even the laundery on the line if perfectly white!!!!! You get two designs in this chart pack... larger is 149 x 87, smaller is 63 x 74. | ||||
Noel FeutreThis is a darling little design that features some bits of wool felt applique as parts of the design. Stitched in Gentle Art Sampler Threads and bits of DMC, check out the mushroom top, the tree and the gifts... they aren't stitched! They are bits of wool sewn on! The chart does have them charted... and in those instructions, I also noticed the charted greens at the top and bottom -- but in the model they are primitive stitched! REALLY cute! So... you can stitch the entire piece, or add the buttons and ribbons and bits of fun fabrics if you like! Noel Feutre is presented in French -- so I can't read a word of the instructions except the thread names and DMC numbers. Stitch count is163 x 100, this is a chart. | ||||
Toc Toc TocWe're not sure what the title of this means, as one site translated to fake, fake! Another translated it as Knock, Knock Knock. We think it's a darling piece -- Santa is there with Rudolph (see the red nose!) -- there are snowflakes scattering across the sky, we just like the whole 'flavor' of the 122 x 126 design. This one uses lots of Sampler Threads -- Onyx, Piney Wood, Weathered Barn, Cherry Wine and Sarsaparilla. | ||||
Le Nuage de Pere Noel'The cloud of Father Christmas'... he's saying that he sees the wise children. In other words, that means that Santa is watching and seeing all the good children before he visits on Christmas! (even without his glasses on -- see them by his boots!?) So whimsical and cute, stitch count of 120 x 171, just charming! | ||||
Quand le Chat est la...When the cat is... (out, the mouse will play!) Oh my gosh, check out the CHARM of this piece! The cat is rotund, with that awesome curly tail, the mouse is wearing a pink Tu-Tu! The tiny bluebird is just singing away... he's not worried about life at all!!!!! Over-the-top personality in these two 90 x 75 pieces! | ||||
Halloween Shoes and Halloween HatsQuite a fun sampling of expressive shoes and hats for the season! Measuring 6 x 6 on 18ct, and coded for DMC floss, it might be fun to do these with some metallics to brighten them up a little... maybe add some beads? Just fun pieces! Presented as leaflets. | ||||
Camp EssentialsWell, not something you'd stitch for the family tent... but maybe the camper or the cabin? Just a fun little piece that maybe can commemorate a special trip or weekend... or even a whole summer? Presented in leaflet format, this finishes 6 x 13 on 14/28ct. DMC. | ||||
Holiday Farm AnimalsIsn't this festive? All three are cute just by themselves - stacked or not - but I LOVE that little pig! You could stitch him just by himself (3 x 4 on 18ct) as an ornament - he is precious! Actually, this piece is kind of on the larger side. Entire stitch count is 152 x 213 (11 x 15 on 14ct!) so it won't go missed anywhere you display it. Stitched with normal colors of regular DMC. | ||||
from Jeannette Douglas
| ||||
![]() Kind Karen Another of Jeannette's cute primitives... this is the 6th or 7th in the series: A Most Suitable Name. She started by naming them after her sisters... but she ran out of them a couple of years ago! Kind Karen is a stitcher! Cute motifs, fun hand-dyed cottons, finishes just about 5 x 5 on 36ct. | ||||
Modest Mildred and Devoted DorothyMore of these cute ladies stitched with earthy tones and mingled with pretty motifs, each is presented as a small chart. They'd be fun as pillows, add buttons, or maybe even a penny rug border like the background on Mildred's front cover. Worked with overdyed flosses, Mildred and Dorothy companion Betty, Hilda, Willi, Nettie, Penny and Annie! DARLING all together in a basket of little pillows! | ||||
Button Betty, Humble Hilda and Wool Willi
Here are three more lovely ladies -- all named after Jeannette and her family members!!!!! Willie gets the wooly lambs and Betty gets the buttons... each piece is a tiny primitive with kind-of a stitching theme. Offered as small charts, add some old buttons or charms to yours if you have something special from the family. Stitched on something 36ct-ish, Willi finishes approx 4 x 5 -- close to the rest. All are charted for Weeks and Gentle Art hand-dyed flosses. | ||||
A Most Suitable Name!
Alphabet Annie, Prim Penny and Nimble Netty are all charming primitive pieces by Jeannette Douglas! Something quite different from her regular design style, these are worked on hand-dyed linen using Weeks and Gentle Art flosses. Annie has the alphabet, Penny has a teeny Penny Rug stitched over one thread by her name -- this would be pretty with a row of wool pennies in place of the stitched ones. Netty has a flower stitched in a round motion and a house stitched in a diagonal motion to really show off the floss variation -- I guess that's what makes her nimble! Annie finishes approx 4-1/2 x 8, and Penny and Netty approx 5-ish inches each. Pretty colors, charming little designs, each is offered as a chart. | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
Plenty & Grace Sampler by Brenda KeyesBrenda Keyes has two new samplers... both offered in chart format; we like to stitch ours over one thread on 28 Lugana or with half stitches over two. Charming motifs and houses, the border on the Shepherd reminds me of the marks on a ruler! Always coded for DMC, her pieces are simple and pretty - but we notice that she is using some hand-dyed threads now. Due in the shop anyday, we can't wait to get the models stitched. Plenty & Grace measures 12-1/2 x 9-3/4 on 14/28 - but if you do the over one, you can get it down to 6 x 5! | ||||
![]() New Samplers have arrived from Brenda Keyes of The Sampler Company From all the way from 'Across the Pond,' we're excited that they have arrived! All presented in chart format, and coded for DMC. Every Heart is a traditional wedding piece... it finishes approx 11 x 11. You might need to update that couple though! | ||||
Noah's Ark SamplerBrenda Keyes has a new sampler -- with a Noah's Ark theme. Very simple and bold compared to some of her other things, this measures approx 13 x 17 on 25ct over two. (That's big... it'd be 12 x 9 on 35ct.) Stitched with regular DMC floss as well. Awesome trees -- I love her different choices for those. Animals -- kangaroos, giraffes, camels, snakes and I think hyenas... this is a very traditional flavor for Noah. Offered as the chart. | ||||
House on the Hill SamplerStitch something traditional and easy -- this is a neat piece just for that -- because the alphabet and motifs are simple. With a stitch count of 252 x 132, this will finish approx 9 x 18 on 28ct... but could be 4 x 7 over one on 35ct! Lots of fabric choices for this one -- it is charted for 12 different colors of DMC floss. It's a perfect piece to add some overdyeds to, because of the large design area. Look at the trees, the grass, the big alphabet, even the house -- you can add lots of color impact with just a couple of hand-dyeds. A pretty piece to stain and mange up, too!!!!! (We learned to do that in our Shakespeare's Peddler Retreat Class this past summer!) | ||||
| ||||
![]() Just Saying *Just Saying - This is a trio of great little designs - *enjoy the little things, today is a Gift & life is beautiful* are the first three - there are 4 charts of 3 patterns each planned so far. Stitched on Picture This Plus's 32ct Wren linen, they are coded for Gentle Art and Weeks flosses and feature Lady Dot trims. Each measures 67 x 67 in size... what a pretty set it's going to become! We're going to begin an auto-ship to collect the other three charts coming in the next three months! | ||||
![]() LOVE *Is all around you* This is rather a simple chart which can be stitched on any fabric, using a color of your choice. What makes it special are the button and pin embellishments included. Hand-made by Puntini, you are getting 4 alphabet 'tiles' that remind one of Scrabble letters, along with 2 decorated hearts and a matching heart pin. The buttons have a definite cream color... so do be careful to choose fabrics and threads that compliment and not clash. Very cute design, this would make a fun wedding announcement! Presented as the chart with pin and buttons, make sure to see the rest of the Puntini hand-made pin and button collection we have -- it is full of CHARMING things! | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
| ||||
![]() Do Not Open Do Not Open highlights that darling little green and white striped package. | ||||
![]() When I Think of... All stitched with DMC, all featuring little motifs for that month. The individual cushions finish 3 x 6-1/2. | ||||
![]() When I Think of ABC, DEF, GHI Alphabet Blocks Here is the beginning of the alphabet... three letters presented in each chart. Stitched on 40ct, with DMC floss, they finish just 2-1/4 inches each - they look bigger in the pics, but are actually pretty close to actual size. Paola chose dark fabric.. you can do whatever you want... and finishing options are many for these. She talks about using them for the backs of pin cushions, or the insides of needle cases - like a little stitched monogram! No info on the pins or buttons yet... just enjoy the beginning of this fun set of designs! If we get a hold of pins, we might just include them with the charts for ease.) | ||||
| ||||
![]()
| ||||
| ||||
![]() Home Sweet Home from The Stitching Shed Well, the verse says it all! finishing approx 7 x 7, this one would be cute with some hand-dyed flosses tucked into the grass and sky. | ||||
Cupcake Sampler Perfect for the Birthday Girl!!! Finishes approx 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, don't you just love the colors? Add a few bead sprinkles for decoration! | ||||
Kindred Spirits of the Thread This is a pin cushion for a stitcher! Stitched on 36ct Confederate Gray is calls for Weeks blackboard, Lichen, Caper, Cinnabar and Arrowhead. Easy to change colors though... any stitcher will love to have and use it! | ||||
![]() from La-D-Da... Little Virginie 1837 - Stitched on 36ct, this one finishes approx 10 x 10. There's a windmill in here... a peacock and that cool sailing ship... kind of a 'family established' thing! | ||||
![]() The Fetishes -- This is a set of 4 small designs, 100 x 100 stitches. Patterned after different types of samplers, Lori thinks she'll do a set of 12 of these! | ||||
| ||||
from AB Designs
| ||||
All Things Warm and Cozyab Designs has another charming design that uses the new DMC Memory Thread! This awesome stocking would be awesome FINISHED as a stocking... it's stitched with Sampler Threads, and features a neat woolen heart applique, and a few red glass seed beads. Deep, rich colors of Apple Cider, Woodsmoke, Buckeye Scarlet, Dark Chocolate, Raven Oatmeal and Parchment... it just LOOKS like a comfortable old sock! Notice the curly-Q stuff around the sheep and holding the heart? THAT is the DMC Memory Thread. It's actually thread-covered wire that you twist and attach just however you want, to get such a fun and whimsical effect! This design uses the Gold color, and finishes approx 9 x 11 on 28ct. Offered as the chart with woolen heart and beads, linen, flosses and Memory Thread offered separately. | ||||
Snarky Stuff by Amy!Just funny sayings that are super fun to have on display in just the right places!!! *But First Coffee* and *That's a horrible idea* -- Both designs in this chart, they come with a smattering of small green buttons. You can even add some of the PuntiniPuntini coffee buttons! Again, any fabrics you want, change colors too if you want! | ||||
![]() Christmas Calories Don't Count Well in a perfect world, I guess! AB has a cute design that needs to be mounted on a chalkboard stand or something -- some sort of presentation to preside over the tempting Christmas Cookie tray of sin! Her pattern comes as a chart with cuts of two different colors of brown wool, red heart buttons and DMC Memory Wire Thread for icing decorations to make delightful felt gingerbread men! The stitching is only 5 x 6-ish on 28ct... so this is a creative, quick thing to dress up your kitchen cooie tray! | ||||
![]() Crazy Dog Lady! Two of AB's new designs... we all have that friend who is NUTS about their cat or dog... they dress them, they cook real people food for them, they skype with them, they even stick them in their purses to go shopping together! (well maybe not the CAT!) Anyway, she needs this! Dog was released a few weeks ago -- Cat just came. Offered as two separate charts -- both measure 61 x 133 in stitch count -- about 6 x 14 on 14ct. CAT comes with a felt fish for trim, DOG comes with a felt bone. Cute as can be... you could skip the top two cats to save stitching time... but not if that offends that Crazy Cat Lover! | ||||
Front Yard FlowersThis is a captivating piece -- petite at 60 x 60 stitches -- and packed with something like 25 tiny specialty stitches. The matching needlebook is even a tinier version of the 'big' piece! Texture and fun detail everywhere... you'll want to showcase this piece on the top of Olde Colonial's Small Dowry Box, or frame it and display on a table-top easel. You want everyone to be able to see all the stitch detail easily. Offered as a chart, coded for silks, it looks like FUN to stitch, because all is packed into such a tiny area. | ||||
Sampler SackHere's a fun design -- a petite 52 x 90 stitch count spot motif sampler that is shown on the front of a 6 x 9-ish little linen sack! Cynthia has very detailed placement charts and finishing instructions in here... along with stitch diagrams of at least 19 different stitches. (I just love looking at all those -- they feel like puzzles when you follow all the numbers and your stitch actually turns out!) Tons of detail in here, you personalize the back of your linen bag, and then make the matching scissor tag. Coded for Dinky Dyes silks or Gentle Art Sampler Threads. | ||||
| ||||
Winter JumbleOh, another of these fun mini-motif designs that spells out a word. Cynthia has quite a few of these for the different seasons and holidays -- all of them are farther down this page. We LIKE these because you can do a lot of different things with them. Stitch the pic as shown... make individual fobs or ornaments... finish them into little building blocks. By now, you have a million different assorted letters and designs -- do something fun with them! I see this one stitched as one long tube -- finished into a hot-dog shape to grace a breezy windowsill! Lots of fun stitches, each tiny square is only 15 x 15 stitches -- NOTHING AT ALL to do! Coded for 6 Needlepoint and 3 Dinky Dyes hand-dyed silks. Offered as the chart, a gray color fabtric is suggested so that the snowflakes pop! | ||||
Summer JumbleAnother one of these cute miniature block designs that spells out the season or holiday... Cynthia has finished ALL FOUR SEASONS and shown the medley design on the back cover of this chart. These are great 15 x 15 stitch count squares full of seasonal motifs and cool letters -- and special stitches to boot! Make them into fobs or ornaments, OR make loonnnnng and skiinnnny samplers out of them! This is now a huge series of designs from Drawn Thread -- so you could even make a basket of like 200 BITTY TRINKETS! | ||||
Autumn JumbleAnother of these fun sets of mini-blocks!! Joining several of DT's other seasonal mini-blocks (Halloween, Valentine and Easter all come to mind right away) AUTUMN is spelled out in one-inch squares -- surrounded by other 1-inch blocks of tiny motifs. Again -- loaded with fun specialty stitches -- these are SO COOL stitched individually and made into miniature fabric blocks! They make stunning mini-ornaments and are perfect for nametags and scissor fobs. And... of course... lovely stitched just as Cynthia presents it! (I like these long and skinny too -- they look neat hanging above a door, and very unexpected trailing down a very skinny wall.) Stitched on any creamy linen the silks called for are rich taupes, olives, rusts and marigold. Only 49 x 83 stitches -- this is actually approx 3 x 5 -- just a bitty thing! Offered as the chart. | ||||
Apple Blossom Scissor Case from Faby Reilly DesignsSuch a pretty sewing set... we have a biscornu that matches these. Worked on 32ct Antique White Belfast linen in DMCs and embellished with a touch of gold beading, these are full of brilliant pinks and bold greens. Every piece in the set features a slightly different version of the signature design, so everything matches but is unique! | ||||
![]() Treasured Memories from The Purple Thread This is another drum-shaped cushion. But this time, she's cut up an old quilt and you get lovely cut of an old quilt, the linen, flosses and finishing felt. Your stitching decorates the top... it is just charming! Complete kit contains everything you need - except the stuffing! | ||||
Four Fun Smalls Ms Sharon was busy this season creating 4 darling new small projects... she always presents them in kit format with the coolest little embellishments and materials!

![]() All Dolled Up Designs Little House Needleworks has released several designs that are 'All Dolled Up' with 'Pretties!' A few beads here and there... a clay button or two... just a little something in the way of garnish. The Queen Bee and Chocolate Box are a step away from all her house designs -- just for fun! If you've taken one of our Mona's finishing classes, or subscribe to the Secret Needle Night finishing kits... that chocolate box will be a breeze for you to make! Offered as charts, each finishes approx 5 x 5 -- Strawberry House is 4 x 6. Using DMC flosses and Crescent overdyeds, the beads are Mill Hill, and buttons come from Just Another Button Co. Cute! | ||||
Red Rooster InnCute if you changed that name to yours and hung it in the kitchen - ONLY you need to be a good cook and offer stunning breakfasts! Finishes approx 7-1/2 x 8 | ||||
Cherries and BerriesThe fruits of summer, both look yummy in their charming pottery bowls. I think there is a bit of 'artistic license' with those blueberries in the tree, though! Offered as the chart, this finishes approx 4 x 9 on 28ct. If you are an over-achiever, you could stitch the 'bowl' squares and make them jam jar labels!!! | ||||
![]() Scarlett House Harriot Passey 1838 - The color of fabric is named 'Dirty Teacup!' The sampler definitely elevates that picture in my mind! Tis religion that can give sweetest pleasures while we live, tis religion can supply solid comfort when we die. | ||||
Scarlett House
| ||||
![]() Angel Band from Stardust | ||||
Christmas Robins Scissor FobA charming little design -- it's a double-decker fob!!! A trio of chubby winter robins -- dressed in Christmas finery with their Santa Hats on -- they are so simple, yet so cute! THEN... why haven't we thought of this before???? DOUBLE fobs??? What a cool way to use coordinating designs?! What a neat way to use cool beads from your embellishment stash?! (With so many designs... you could stitch a tiny bit of the larger design as an accent... and attach it to the main piece!) Anyway, Christmas Robins's top design measures 39 x 46, while the bottom is a mere 25 x 25. Choose your fabric of choice... grab DMC floss from your stash and get BUSY! Offered as a chart. | ||||

Wedding at Mermaid CoveOh a wedding on the beach... lots of attendants, a candle-lit church, a visiting whale in the sea, and billowy winds blowing the clouds and waves!
