I currently have a variety of embroidery samplers ON SALE in the shop! As you can no doubt imagine as the year progresses I amass quite a collection of small samples of threads when I skein. I generally offer these in mixed samplers throughout the year but this year decided to offer them in a…
Tahitian Treat is a beautiful fuchsia needlepoint design featured in the March/April 2021 issue of Needle Pointers. It is designed by Melita Glavin, who also created the Framed Sevens project. Most of you will know by now that I like to stitch small samples to showcase both my thread colours as well as designs created…
If you remember, I mentioned last month that I had a mitten published in the November/December 2022 issue of Needlepoint Now. After I completed designing the other two, I started experimenting with different designs using the same colours in the kit. Last month, I featured a mitten using some of the kit colours and added…

The small section photographed above is from my fall themed crazy quilt. This is one of the first crazy quilts I created…
I know it’s late winter here on the coast but I’m thinking of fall stitching today, using Colour #165 from last year’s fall collection. While this is an deal colour combination for fall stitching, I feel it could be used in any seasonal palette of your choice. Colour #165 is a blend of red, yellow,…
Late last year, I was lucky to have a needlepoint mitten published in Needlepoint Now’s November/December issue. The pattern was a sampler style featuring a variety of stitches in a popular and beautiful colour palette. Today I’d like to share a second blue mitten pattern. As I was designing my Frosty Morning pattern, I started…
This year I am starting my crazy quilting series with some silk ribbon embroidery. Last year I focused on foundation stitches for seam treatments so this year I’ve decided to feature areas of crazy quilt blocks showcasing many of the stitches we discussed last year, some new variations and using ribbons! If you would like…
