I’d like to introduce our star mitten today! This is the fourth mitten in our Twelve Months of Mittens series. You will find all the mittens under Twelve Months of Mittens in categories so make sure you check them out. Susan came up with our mitten series late last year when she proceeded to stitch…
Today, I’m featuring one of our circles in our ongoing circle sampler. This one utilizes unique stitching techniques and beautiful beading patterns – meet the lavender circle! If you have been following my blog, you may have come across our circle sampler project. We love drawing inspiration from other projects and in this case, this…
Who says you need to be an expert needle worker to create a stunning design? Today’s heart demonstrates the use of very simple stitches. I have talked about using bands in designs previously and this is another great example. While there is no specific pattern used, this is an adaptation of a design featured in…
Last month I mentioned that I really love the Chevron stitch so I decided to share the second chevron stitch variation in our seam treatment series. Start by tracing the seam using one of Kathy Shaw’s templates offered in her Stunning Stitches For Crazy Quilts book. Don’t forget, this is a great resource if you…
Since our colour feature focuses on purple/lavender this month, I’m going to share not one but two bargello samples — both with a beautiful lavender colour feature. If you are new to the series, each month we feature one Bargello sample (two this month) using a particular colour theme as inspiration. Hopefully, you will find…
Are you ready for some spring stitching? I think it is time, don’t you!? While we are not seeing much spring weather here on the west coast (YET), this colour combination reminds me of daffodils and iris in the garden. I’m looking forward to seeing some daffodils pop up soon as I planted a lot…
We are celebrating the colour PURPLE throughout the month of April. Welcoming April means welcoming spring here on the west coast. When I thought about what colour to choose for my monthly Colour Feature Series, I could easily have chosen pink, yellows or greens. BUT, I opted to select the colour purple as it reminds…
While this Barbara Seuss-inspired Temari Ball is called Blue Arrows, the colour scheme shows orange arrows instead so perhaps I should have titled the post, orange arrows. While the photograph displays the colours well, I personally feel they are absolutely brilliant “in person”. In truth, many of these designs featured on the blog really look…
In today’s blog, I’m highlighting a beautiful pink blend of colours, one of several new colours featured in my new collection! The photo above is a cross-stitch sample featuring Colour #79 from my spring collection. This pink blend is the second of two new colours introduced in February this year. Colour #79 is a blend…
Can you see the squares and crosses pattern in this heart? There is no specific printed pattern for the heart shown today. The design starts with a central cross created with alternating Smyrna stitches in two different colours and threads. The grid for the small squares is created using a metallic braid which has been…
