The Scarlett House Presenting Tanya Brockmeyer of Scarlett House

Rescheduled for May 20, 21 and 22, 2021 - A Mini-Weekend
in Silver Needle's *She Shed Stitching Room!!!*


We are welcoming Tanya for a couple of days of stitching. She'll have an exclusive sampler project for us... we'll have freebies and favors for you... and you'll be able to spend a few relaxing days shopping and stitching with your friends!

Thursday evening has no organized plan yet... and I THINK Friday will be trunk show, meet and greet, and general stitching time with Tanya. Saturday is the project.

Berry Bowl Sampler, a Collaboration between Heartstring Samplery and The Scarlett House
Berry Bowl Sampler, a Collaboration between Heartstring Samplery and The Scarlett House
Wow! This is her collaboration with The Scarlett House! *Life is sweeter when shared with Friends.*

This is stitched on two different pieces of fabric, then joined together. SO... you can each stitch your half... and share it... so your stitching is on one side, your friend's is the other! Stitch Count for the Entire Piece is 200 x 200... I think this will NOT get lost on the wall!

Seeking Refuge from Scarlett House - click for more Sweet Tomato from Scarlett House - click for more Bringing Home the Tree from Scarlett House - click for more Jane Cowey 1850 from Scarlett House - click for more Here from the show! Tanya has 4 more PLUS her collaboration with Heartstrings Samplery. We have them all.
  • Seeking Refuge - Reminds me of Tanya's 'A Perfect World' design - it's a sampler for Stitchers! 249 x 183 stitch count.
  • Sweet Tomato - Her Market Exclusive to the shops, this is actually pretty big - 139 x 92, so it finishes about 6 x 8 on 32ct!
  • Bringing Home the Tree - Feels good that we have a few months to wait before we have to take this adventure again! Just a 103 x 61 cushion size.
  • Jane Cowey 1850 - Wow, this is a gorgeous sampler! I get lost in the verse, but the colors and shapes of the motifs are nice - it's so organized!

Autumn Alphabet from Scarlett House - click for more Crows Corner from Scarlett House - click for more Hello Fall from Scarlett House - click for more
Autumn is coming - Scarlett House Style!
Tanya is sending 4 new designs... and these three just seemed to go together!
  • Autumn Alphabet is clean and simple - 40ct Weeks Mocha with just 4 colors of hand-dyeds, it finishes a little under 5 inches in size.
  • Crows Corner is a fun little piece - thin borders, the owl, squirrels and crows in the yard... it's all so divided up and balanced. Charming and organized! About 100 x 100 in stitch count, you could make individual cushions out of the motifs, make a few more with only the borders running across them - like ribbons. It looks like it will be fun to stitch.
  • Hello Fall is REALLY on the simple side! Tanya is using Mascara, Garden Gate, Oatmeal and Mustard Seed as the color palette... if you have some room colors you need to match, this might be super-fun to change up and accent the room!
Mary Hawley 1808 from Scarlett House - click for more


Mary Hawley 1808
An American Quaker Sampler originally stitched in 1808, this measures 83 x 191 - so approx 5 x 11 on 36ct Picture This Plus's Ale linen.

There are lots of family initials scattered near the bottom (very similar color to background though), and an interesting combination of lettering in the center... but those all include H... so I bet it's a family tree!


Elizabeth Walsh's Work from Scarlett House - click for more
Elizabeth Walsh's Work
The Scarlett House has a pretty sampler mat, scissor fob and pin keep design set - all featuring charming floral urns, coverlet motifs and a little seamstress girl. The main sampler finishes approx 7 x 9 on 36ct Doubloon Linen by Picture This Plus. Everything is stitched with hand-dyed flosses or DMC.

A super-cute set, she has presented in a cool little metal tray! No tray? Tanya offers assembly instructions to make the main piece into a sewing mat.

Elizabeth Hunter 1853 from Scarlett House - click for more

Elizabeth Hunter 1853
Oh, here's a pretty reproduction of an antique sampler originally stitched in 1853.

Finishing just under 10 inches square on 40ct, it is coded for Weeks or DMC flosses. Soft, gentle colors, just a nice quiet piece!

Berry Bird from Scarlett House - click for more The Berry Beginning from Scarlett House - click for more In The Berry Beginning from Scarlett House - click for more
Berry Bird and In The Berry Beginning
Large and Small, The Scarlett House has two new designs - one a pin cushion size, and the other a sampler that rolls into a cute sewing case, complete with a pin cushion closure treatment!
  • Berry Bird finishes just under 4 inches in size and is shown as a padded topper for a ready-made candle holder (from the big box store). Using Weeks Whitewash, Havana, Oscar, Baked Apple and Mascara hand-dyed flosses, he's a simple little bird in his pot of strawberries
    • .
  • In the Berry Beginning features an Adam & Eve sampler that is approx 10 x 11 in size. Tanya has really done a neat job of finishing this in a different way. She's turned under the fabric edges, then mounted it to the inside of a fabric 'mat.' She's added the scissor pocket out of the lining fabric... and you can see the bonus pin cushion pattern up there on the right. She's put a loop on the back of that, so you can string your ribbon through the loop, and make the cushion a closure garnish for your roll! The fabric roll is pretty just by itself, with your initialed cushion keeping it closed, but then when you OPEN it... wow! Chart... hand-dyed flosses, 36ct linen.

New Offerings from The Scarlett House
Here are just three of the new we brought home from market... many more on Tanya's inside page, so scroll down to see the others, too!
  • A Perfect World - The colors and balance in this piece is just stunning. The verse is charming... but if it's not your favorite... change it! DO NOT pass by this pretty piece! Measuring only 10 x 9 on 40ct over two, it'll be a little larger if you go with 32ct. Coded for hand-dyed flosses of Hazelnut, Havana, Beige, Grasshopper, Red Rocks, Dark Chocolate, Boysenberry, Battleship, Juniper, Green With Envy, and Whitewash. You'll also need two skeins of DMC 310. Tanya's 4 dogs are pictured on the back of the chart - I think they were her inspiration!
  • There's Probably Dog (Cat) Hair On This - Ok, I guess there's no doubt of the inspiration for this set of cushions! Choose just about any fabric you like, in any count, and even change up floss colors if you want! Each finishes approx 4 x 5 on 32ct. Just Another Button Company made a cute pin trio for each of these... the dog's version has a brown dog, checkerboard heart and a little bone, while the cat version has a gray kitty, another heart and a little bird. Pins available separately from the chart.
  • On Coverlet Court - This is sort of a companion (in name anyway) to On Stoneware Street and On Redware Road. Just a pretty pin cushion design -- about 3-1/2 x 5 on 36ct.

Julia Fletcher 1847 from Scarlett House - click for more Berry Merry Christmas from Scarlett House - click for more Black Dog Sampler from Scarlett House - click for more
Julia Fletcher 1847, Berry Merry Christmas and Black Dog Sampler
  • Julia Fletcher 1847 - This is a sweet set of pieces... the pincushion is stitched over one thread (on 40ct, but you can do whatever you like best), and finishes just 3 x 3. Next is the bitty fob - stitched over two it is only a little over one inch in size. Finally is the needle roll - it finishes approx 4 x 10 with that alphabet on the backside, with wool lining on the inside. The stripe you see on the roll is the finishing ribbon to tie it closed, and I think that red berry is an antique. (But you can make one out of Week's wool - the same color you line your roll with!) Chart.
  • Berry Merry Christmas - Oh, we have 9 months to finish this before Christmas! A sweet 3-1/2 x 6 greeting sign... stitched with Mossy, Wild Berries, English Ivy, Jakey Brown and snowball hand-dyed flosses!
  • Black Dog Sampler - This is a neat little piece - it doesn't have all the alphabet letters in it! Finishing 7 x 10 on 40ct, it uses Gloriana silks or DMC flosses... maybe you'll choose hand-dyed cottons from your stash. All the motifs are scattered on here in such an organized fashion... but of course that little black dog - the plainest of them all - gets your sampler named after him!

Morning Walk from Scarlett House - click for more American Farmhouse from Scarlett House - click for more
Morning Walk & American Farmhouse
  • Morning Walk is another of Tanya's cute pin cushion designs. This one features a pair of pups getting their morning walk - look at the glorious sunflowers they pass each day!
  • American Farmhouse - What an organized farmyard! Lovely quilts 'out of the line', and that charming barn, this finishes approx 5 x 10 on 36ct. Stitched with hand-dyeds, Tanya said her inspiration for this design comes from all the barns in the midwest that have quilts and flags painted on them. (She took quite a road-trip this past summer - complete with all of her dogs!)



Pumpkin Spice Everything from Scarlett House - click for more Pumpkin Spice Everything
Tanya Brockmeyer has a new pin cushion design... this sends us right into Fall and Thanksgiving Season!!!

Finishing just 3 x 5-1/2 on 36ct Dirty Edinburgh Linen, and stitched with Gentle Art Sampler Threads, it is trimmed with Lady Dot's Jack-colored hand-dyed chenille trim. Makes me want to go downstairs and bake something that smells good!!!!


Hannah's Brownstone from Scarlett House - click for more Spring Fling Stitching Bag from Scarlett House - click for more Nice to Meet You from Scarlett House - click for more My Gift to Thee from Scarlett House - click for more
The Scarlett House has 4 new releases -- all charts -- finishing varies from pin cushions to framing and that little bag treatment.
  • Hannah's Brownstone -- 125 x 107, this finishes approx 6 x 7 on 36ct linen; it uses 12 shades of Weeks or DMC. It's very pretty, everyone seems to like the contrast of the all the tiny rectangles in the windows against the rounds of the flowers and the waves of the stems.
  • Spring Fling Stitching Bag -- Stitching on this measures 100 x 73 so it finishes about 4 x 6 on 35ct. The sewing bag is a simple pouch finishing treatment, so pin-cushion finishing will also work as an alternative use for this design. 8 Colors of Weeks hand-dyeds; it's a pretty little piece, and it will be charming no matter your end use!
  • Nice to Meet You -- Measuring 91 x 74, this one finished approx 4 x 5 on 36ct... again, Weeks hand-dyed or DMC solid flosses. The picture kind of cuts off the bottom of the design -- there is a basket down there as well as her legs and boots and those of the sheep! More geometrics -- the repeating lines of the tree branches and her skirt vs the tiny repeating squares of the houses... the colors are pretty; it's just a fun little piece.
  • My Gift to Thee -- This is the smallest of these four offerings -- it will finish approx 4 x 3-1/2. Worked with Classic Colorworks, this has a Christmas 'feel' to it. You have evergreens -- she is carrying one, there is snow, and that traditional berry basket. I think it'd make a cute sewing or scissor case to hang on your Christmas Tree!!! Kind of a 'bonus-ornament!'

Patriotic Shaker Box Set from Scarlett House - click for more School Days from Scarlett House - click for more Patriotic Shaker Box Set & School Days
The Scarlett House has 7 new releases... I thought these two were charming to show on Just Arrived... all the rest are tucked below. Presented as charts, both of these patterns feature multiple small pieces to finish and tuck into a box of some sort.
  • Patriotic Shaker has a pretty pin cushion, topper and fob... you CAN finish the flag basket as the cushion and row houses as the box topper -- depends on your box! I like the stars and stripes roofs on them! Weeks and Gentle Art's hand-dyed flosses, with Lady Dot trims.
  • School Days features two different fabrics -- makes it a really cute set! The schoolhouse threadkeep board and fob are worked on 28ct Gingham, the chalkboard on 28 black (but it's over ONE thread -- so be aware!). That little fob is kind of a 'mattress' shape and is trimmed with Lady Dot's miniature Birds Nest Rik Rak. As for the cool lunch box... go to Goodwill and find something. Hit it on a few things to bang it up just a little...sand it some, leave it out in your yard -- preferably a muddy corner or under a bush somewhere -- let it see some weather, and VOILA! You will have aged it perfectly!

On Stoneware Street from Scarlett House - click for more On Stoneware Street
Companions On Redware Road! Just a sweet little house, this finishes approx 3-1/2 x 5 on 36ct.

Uses just 310 and Classic Colorworks of Blacksmith Blue, Stepping Stones, Cherry Cobbler and Weeping Willow, and features Lady Dot's Mossy chenille trim.


On Stoneware Street from Scarlett House - click for more Christmas in the Village
A sweet little piece, this finishes approx 4 x 11 on Picture This Plus's 40ct Ale.

Coded for hand-dyeds or DMC, it'd make a pretty little decorative pillow.


Anna Grater 1812 from Scarlett House - click for more Anna Grater 1812
Very traditional and organized alphabets in crosses and eyelets, this finishes approx 8 x 9 on 36ct. Gentle Art Sampler Threads of Woodrose, Endive, Pecan Pie, Oatmeal, country Redwood, Tin Bucket and Black Licorice.

Anna Grater is Tanya's maternal grandmother's name... alive long after 1812... but the photo on the front of the chart IS her grandma! Just a little artistic license with the chart!


Sarah Hopwood 1847 from Scarlett House - click for more Sarah Hopwood 1847
An 1847 piece, Tanya worked this on 46ct linen... maybe you'll want something larger... it's YOUR stitching, so you decide!

Coded for silks or DMC, you can get out your hand-dyed cottons and see where you want to add some -- they take the flatness out of the trees, bricks and grassy area. Also, you CAN leave off the Sara name at the bottom all together, or sub your own! Measures 187 x 183 in stitch count.


Ann Long 1826 from Scarlett House - click for more Ann Long 1826
This is a pretty piece! Neat border, pretty floral basket motifs, the verse tells you to work as hard as bees do to reject the ill and take the good. It's a cool verse and there is a lot going on in here... it'll make a commanding sampler on your wall.

Measures 297 x 327 -- so 16-1/2 x 18 on 36ct -- quite good sized. Coded for 4 brands of silks or DMC. This sampler is in Tanya's personal collection -- she shares Ann's Birthday... only Ann is 130 years older!!!


Salem Hill Sampler - click for more Sew Witchy - click for more Fall Frolic - click for more Bonnie's Bittersweet - click for more
New Offerings!
Tanya has 4 new designs -- all presented in chart format -- that look like Autumn and Halloween are finally around the corner!!! Everything is charted for hand-dyeds or DMC.
  • Salem Hill Sampler -- Be brave, choose any count of black fabric you can see to stitch on to make this cute evening Autumn scene. On 40 over two it finishes 4-1/2 x 4... on 14 it finishes approx 6 x 6. The dormant grass in the lawn is Sage -- doesn't it look dismal and kind of spooky??? Lady Dot's Mossy Chenille trim surrounds the finished cushion.
  • Sew Witchy -- This is so cute! Add your own buttons as shown, or actually stitch them instead -- they are charted there just in case. A fun cushion for any stitcher, most neutral fabrics will do for this one, but you might want to get that measuring tape ribbon Tanya shows in the model pic on her cover -- cute trim, and available at Hobby Lobby! Finishes approx4-1/2 x 5 on 36ct.
  • Fall Frolic -- A busy Halloween scene complete with graveyard, owls and the moon... this is stitched on Lakeside's Cedar Plank linen with hand-dyed cottons. It finishes approx 6 x 3-1/2 on 40ct, (you can work on any count you like) and is shown against black rik rak mounted on Week's Cognac Wool. (We have 4 finishes of that -- all look great -- solid, houndstooth, herringbone and glen plaid.) I love the jaggedy border which looks uneven and herky-jerky... but is actually very even and planned! Would make a cute brick-shaped block stand-up or door stop!
  • Bonnie's Bittersweet -- A pickle crock full of spindly Autumn Bittersweet, Tanya has mounted it on a *butter board* that you can purchase on Etsy. Pretty coverlet design on here as well, this finishes approx 4 x 5 on 40ct.
.

Coverlet Berry Scissor Tray - click for more Coverlet Berry Scissor Tray
Scarlett House has released a charming 3-1/2 x 5-ish design that can be finished into a 'tray-setting' or a pin cushion. Stitched over 2 on 40ct is is worked with just 5 shades of hand-dyeds -- Cast Iron Skillet, Caper, Oscar, Sage and Country Redwood. The tray you see in the pic was used for the model -- the chart includes details for preparing that separately purchased (from Hobby Lobby) little tray... but recommends a pin cushion treatment as well.

Tanya has included the templates and instructions for the fun little berries shown on here... they are made from Weeks Dye Works hand-dyed wools of Louisana Hot Sauce and Grasshopper. NOTE: DOVO has discontinued ALL of their matte black scissors like the ones shown in the pic. If you are wanting that gorgeous black finish on a pair of scissors -- do not wait -- DOVO is already sold out and is not shipping these any longer! (I think we have a few left...)

Another of Tanya's pretty pin cushion designs, this one features lovely shades of green accented with some teal. It's really simple, but her colors are so pretty -- the Country Redwood color POPS against everything else.

This 256 x 143 stitch count sampler finishes approx 16 x 9 on 32ct... and is stitched with Gentle Art Sampler Threads.

The willow tree is neat, the house is organized and so is the garden... everything in here has it's place and purpose on the family farm.

A pretty piece, you could personalize it with the family name and a *date established* especially if it was a long time ago!

Find Comfort from Scarlett House - click for more Patriotic Scissor Pocket from Scarlett House - click for more Center Point Sampler from Scarlett House - click for more
Several New Things from The Scarlett House
We have 5 new releases by Tanya, all of them are presented in chart format...
  • Find Comfort -- 'and peace at home.' Well, that's pretty basic and good advice! Stitch count is 109 x 81 -- so generous on 36ct at 6 x 4-1/2.
  • Patriotic Scissor Pocket -- Inspired by antique pottery stoneware crocks, this sports a grand bouquet of summer splendor! The wavy flag in there, the charming sawtooth border -- both are accented with RED scissors (of which we have several offerings!) Main design is 98 stitches square -- approx 6 x 6, and the fobs are coordinating smaller bits of the larger design.
  • Center Point Sampler -- Wow, this is gorgeous in person! On 32ct, it finishes approx 7-1/2 inches square, and is coded for silk or DMC floss. The colors are bold, and I LOVE something about the organized picture this presents. I don't know if it's the border lines, the squares and their interruptions or simply the gorgeous solid, exciting motif in the center -- those greens are so yummy! I think you could even split this apart -- stitching each main square with its particular part of the middle, along with the middle panel, and make a basket of 5 pin cushions to nestle together -- as 'bowl fillers' in your bowl!

Coverlet Candle Mat from Scarlett House - click for more Coverlet Candle Mat
Inspired by Pennsylvania Dutch woven coverlets, this calls for only three Gentle Art Sampler Threads -- Country Redwood, Harvest Basket and Wrought Iron.

You'll want a piece of wool for the back of this -- (design is only 6 x 8 on 35ct) so you might want to find something pretty first and then match your threads. Calming little piece!


Mary Cook 1795 Sampler from Scarlett House - click for more Mary Cook 1795 Sampler
A traditional Adam & Eve piece -- this finishes approx 14 x 15 on 40ct.

Coded for Classic Colorworks Belle Soie Silks, very symetric and organized, Tanya owns the original sampler in her personal collection!

Super cute finishing for this simple piece that finishes a mere 3-1/2 x 5. Offered as a chart... you may want to change the date of 1837 on there to something else that has significance to you.


Pumpkin, Pumpkin from Scarlett House - click for more Pumpkin, Pumpkin
...on the vine... how'd you get so very fine?
This is shown stitched over one thread for a cool pin cushion finishing treatment. The stitch count is actually pretty good sized -- 152 x 86, so if you choose over two on 28ct, it'll be a generous 11 x 6-1/2!

Life on Sampler Hill from Scarlett House - click for more The Queen's Garden from Scarlett House - click for more The Queen's Garden & Life on Sampler Hill
A pair of new designs by The Scarlet House, both are offered as small charts.
  • The Queen's Garden is cute... the model is presented on 40ct (again, choose ANY fabric you like best -- YOU are the one stitching and enjoying it!) Putty from Weeks Dye Works is the yummy background color, and the pattern uses a mixture of over-dyed flosses, (which we always like better than the regular DMCs.) Perfect Pie Crust, Forest Glade, Seagull, Oatmeal, Black Licorice, Gingersnap, Mustard Seed, Old Hickory, Roasted Marshmallow, Picnic Basket, Weathered Barn, Garden Gate and Cucumber are the choices. It finishes approx 6 x 3-1/2 on the 40 ct, and the model shows rik-rak trim all around.

You can choose ANY count fabric you wish... this is coded for both DMC and Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses. I love that big blue house, the repeating patterns of the leaves and that solid green yard... so the hand-dyed flosses will really be showcased in this design-- choose those! It uses Blackbird, River Rocks, Sunkissed, Caterpillar, Blacksmith Blue, Stepping Stones, Antique Lace, Joshua Tree, Ladybug, Cherry Cobbler, Hazelnut, English Ivy, and Whatley Woodlands.

Strawberry House from Scarlett House - click for more A Few Favorite Things from Scarlett House - click for more Pin Keeps and Scissor Weights
We have a pair of new charts by Tanya Brockmeyer that are pin cushions with coordinating smaller scissor fob designs. The charts are beautifully presented and the front covers are LOVELY! She does PERFECT photography for you... you could probably stitch off the cover pics!

A Few Favorite Things has the most interesting color palette -- It is so different, but I absolutely LOVE it! I don't know if it's the punch of the acid green against the soft red-pear, or the golden inside of that pear -- I want to cut up green apples and ripe pears and sit down right now and eat them! Stitched on 40ct Aztec Red by Weeks, the main cushion finishes approx 4 inches in size.
Strawberry House is much softer -- all Gentle Art Sampler Threads in dusty grays and raspberries. Again 4 x 4-ish, we're into *bowl-fillers* these days... (a ridiculous new buzz-word on HGTV!) A Soft Tin-Roof-color with a chalk-y house... the berries are growing in the wild garden.


A Sampler Grows from Scarlett House - click for more A Sampler Grows
*Inch by inch, row by row, X's make my sampler grow* Scarlet House has a charming pin cushion design that features a tiny companion 'fob' for the cushion. It's shown on scissors, but I think it'd be cute attached to the cushion itself. Generous in size, it measures 119 x 64, so finishes approx 3-1/2 x 6-1/2 on 36ct.

Charted for Needlepoint Silk, it's an easy one to convert to cotton hand-dyeds if you'd rather use them. Offered as a chart... isn't the pink rik-rak finishing striking on there?
Scarlet House has several other new releases... scroll down to see them!

Coverlet Houses
Oh, I like this one! That beautiful repeating positive/negative color scheme... I don't know which way I like it better! Wouldn't it be neat to stitch BOTH ways, and finish your pillow with BOTH pieces of needlework?

Calling for only DMC 3857, 3021, 420 and 310, the stitch count is 145 x 80 -- making this finish approx 5-1/2 x 8 on 36ct.

Very simple, but very striking! Offered as the chart.


Susan Wasband Sampler from Scarlett House - click for more Susan Wasband Sampler
A reproduction chart by Scarlet House, this is a charming sampler -- Adam and Eve. The whole serpent/tree/Garden of Eden theme at the bottom, you then get gorgeous urns of flowers at the bottom, and then the awesome house and gardens along the top! It's almost like two different samplers in one chart. *Susan Wasband is my name and with my hands I worke the same that all the world may plenty see what car (no e) my parent took with me.*

There was no date added... so pick one yourself, and change the name to YOU! This is a pretty piece -- measuring approx 15-1/2 square if you choose 28ct to work it. Smaller linen will make it smaller in size. it would be a good beginning sampler to work -- the border is regular!!!!! Offered as a chart.

Very simple, but very striking! Offered as the chart.

In The Pines
Mmm... lush evergreens, a log cabin (even though it looks pretty big and sprawling!) and the wool coverlets... this needs to be stitched for a log cabin! Offered as a chart, this is worked on Week's 36ct (we have 30ct as well) Straw Linen with hand-dyeds.

Picture those coverlets stitched as individual pin cushions!!!!!! Just a pretty piece, it finishes 6 x 8-ish.


Pumpkins & Bittersweet from Scarlett House - click for more Penny Pumpkin from Scarlett House - click for more Penny Pumpkin and Pumpkins & Bittersweet
Scarlet House has a pair of new designs that are very pretty and appropriate to the Fall Season. Two small designs to make into walnut-shell-stuffed cushions to pack into that ever-growing basket of stitched cushions! Tuck several different projects into one basket, and leave it on an end table or counter... something fun people will dig through to see them all!
  • Penny Pumpkin is worked on a medium-toned linen -- something to let the Sampler Thread Oatmeal color of the main pumpkin stand out. Stitch count is 112 x 87, so it'll finish approx 5 x 7 on 32ct. The border is reminiscent of a woo; penny rug, and it'd be pretty done with bits of colored wools instead of the stitching -- if you're creative!
  • Pumpkins & Bittersweet is a little smaller -- 3 x 5-1/2, and is also worked with Gentle Art Sampler Threads. She has it charted so that you can stitch 'bittersweet' over one OR two threads.

Polka Dots and Alphabets from Scarlett House - click for more Polka Dots and Alphabets
This is a charming project bag, fob and pin cushion set Stitched with only 4 colors of Sampler Threads on the new 32ct Natural Belfast linen that has red polka dots printed on it...it's just the cutest thing! Black Licorice (2 skeins), Picnic Basket, Buckeye Scarlet and Chalk... it features Weeks Dye Works Candy Apple (any of the 4 patterns in our Schnigglet-cut size will do nicely) hand-dyed wool for the penny rug 'tongues' ... one pic has them buttoned down with black buttons, the other shows white X's. The thread spools are 'wrapped'with Satin Stitches... everything is so crisp and cute!

The tiny fob finishes approx 2-1/2 x 1-1/2 -- it is over one. The pin cushion measures 64 x 110 stitches -- but it is over one as well - so finishes approx 2 x 3-1/2. The main sewing case features Eyelet stitches in the alphabet, and those fun wool pennies, with the motifs worked over one thread again. It's stitch count is 105 x 145 -- so it finishes about 7 x 9. I love the colors, I love the polka dots, and I love the wool touches! Get out some red scissors, too!


Button Eyed Cat from Scarlett House - click for more Button Eyed Cat
Hey, this is kind of a cute thing! Stitch a glaring cat face to tuck beside some of your other Halloween decorations, or make a small ornament/fob -- the stitch count on this is only 62 x 66. Stitch the eyes, or make them from buttons, you'll need your favorite fabric plus Sampler Threads of Oatmeal, Gold Leaf, Raven and Tomato.

Offered as a chart... the tiny fob you see on there is a mere 30 x 30 stitches -- kind of a little bonus.


Sleigh Rides and Snowflakes from The Scarlett House - click for more Sleigh Rides and Snowflakes
Here's a chilly scene, cold and quiet! Stitch the entire thing, or leave off the words -- there are big snowflakes in the background (sort of hard to see in our image, but they're there!) that you can re-arrange in behind the evergreens. Scarlet House presents this design in chart format that is worked on a dusky hand-dyed -- lots of good colors come to mind (like Week's Tin Roof).

The stitch count is 220 x 138, and colors listed are either Sampler Threads or DMC. Dried Thyme, Forest Glade, Country Redwood, Wood Smoke, Tin Bucket, Chalk, Picnic Basket, Wood Trail, Deep Forest and Espresso Bean... you can just feel the deep, quiet colors. The dogs and bunnies are worked over one thread -- everything else is over 2.


Mary Ann Farmer from Scarlett House - click for more Mary Ann Farmer
This is a pretty sampler -- an reproduction of an antique or originally stitched in 1834. With a stitch count of 259 x 193, choose a favorite count you like and work this in either Needlepoint Inc silks or DMC flosses (or check the conversions and find your own colors!) I like the beautiful, flowing florals in the urns and just the overall balance and organization of this piece.

I think it would be stunning if you chose either the right or left hand side and included the middle... much more square... but still lovely! Offered as a chart.
