Do you have an embroidery stitch library? Several years ago when I was introduced to counted canvas needlework, I soon realized what a vast array of stitches there really were. Who knew???? I decided very quickly that it would be a great idea to see what these stitches looked like, especially with various colour combinations. …
Carolyn Mitchell Designs creates some lovely patterns. Have you visited Carolyn’s website? If you enjoy counted canvas, you will love her site.

I’ve been a fan of Michelle Ink Designs for some time. I was originally introduce to these designs by one of my customers several years ago. Since that time, I’ve had a number of customers purchase various Colour Complements floss to stitch the designs. Since I don’t do cross stitch myself, I asked Pyra to…
Over the last year I have had a number of requests for my hand dyed Kreinik braid. SO, here it is, six new colour combinations, all variegated. I decided to offer blends of colours in this dye lot to hopefully coordinate/complement various colour palettes. Colour #1 – blues & pinks Colour #2 – reds &…
Introducing my new spring collection for 2020! My spring collection consists of three new colour combinations celebrating spring. Deciding on a palette of colours is always challenging. This was particularly true as I started dyeing these colours last fall when the leaves were turning and the weather changing. Not necessarily inspiring for a spring palette….
