A fabulous crocheted bag Kerry is sharing with us today. Crochet is the first craft I learned to do. I remember Mom teaching me to crochet doilies. If I remember correctly I was probably around seven or eight years old. I kept up with it for a number of years, progressing from doilies to afghans…
One doesn’t often associate the word simplicity with crazy quilting. BUT, today I want to talk about sometimes the simplest of seam treatments works well with stitching. When I travel I am always on the lookout for various embellishments. You never know what you may find in some little shop tucked away! This block started…
There is a lot to be said for simple straight stitches. This particular heart focuses on straight stitches. It is a quick and easy design to stitch up. Dominique chose a pastel selection of colours including Colour #60 which is part of my spring collection this year. I love the colour transition – do you? …
Just in case you missed it last month, More Rhodes to Follow is the second custom thread kit I have created using the new spring collection. I came across the pattern online last year and thought it would look beautiful stitched with the new colours. The pattern is designed by Freda Murfin and available for…

Dominique (yes, I have mentioned her many times previously) is a prolific stitcher in our group. She does not…

It’s a new heart today – a bargello heart. If you are new to my Hearts for Hospice series you can find all my posts in the right side bar under categories – needlepoint – hearts for hospice. Hopefully these designs will give you inspiration and ideas to stitch a heart yourself. Remember, all of…
Introducing my What a Hoot Series. Meet Fleur – my first owl! If you recall, I mentioned in my last post that all the owls in my What A Hoot series have names. After Kam and I decided on owls, she said, “Lorraine, they all need names”! Well, I hadn’t considered this at all. AND,…
My What a Hoot series began as an idea last year. For years I’ve admired painted canvas designs, particularly the series or clubs I see advertised by designers through needlework shops. BUT, I have rarely seen similar series in charted canvas designs. Yes, some but not a lot! Late last year one of my customers,…
Yes, it is another heart today. Through the coming months I will be sharing at least a heart a month if not more. I’ve been keeping Dominique busy stitching hearts of late. This is a wonderful project to use up both bits of canvas as well as leftover threads from previous projects. We all have…
