Portland Revisited designed by Sue Reed. This pattern was originally designed by Sue as a mini class but was updated with newer threads and some different stitches recently. I came across it on the ANG website offered as a HUMs project. What is a HUMs? It is a “holed up mini”. These are small…
To be honest when I think of lavender, I always think of the plant versus the colour. Remember those lavender sachets we put in our drawers. I know I’m dating myself here but I have no doubt some of you remember them. I recall making little sachets one year, stuffing them with lavender and giving…
I’ll get to discussing the cross stitched trees a little later but for now let’s talk about the Linen & Threads Mystery Sampler. I know many of you are familiar with this SAL as each year I receive emails once the SAL starts querying colours etc. By now you all know I don’t do cross…
In retrospect, it may have been a good idea to stitch February Valentine in February! Oh well, there is a wee bit of red in this sample. This is a small blackwork pattern designed by Laura Perin as one of her freebies. If you haven’t visited Laura’s site and blog then you are in for…
Introducing my new fall collection of colours. Four new colour combinations. For many years I was fortunate to experience exquisite sunsets. Personally I feel the fall season offers some of the best. Some exhibit beautiful combinations of pinks, red violets and purples while others offer reds, yellows and oranges. I am an early riser so…
Along came a spider……. Well, it is the season! With Halloween approaching, I’m starting to see some seasonal décor in the shops.

My needlepoint now heart is a heart pattern available in the January/February 2019 issue of Needlepoint Now hence the name. If you check under Hearts for Hospice in categories you should see other posts featuring this design. Dominique has stitched this heart using my floche in Colour #1 and Colour #51 in floss and various…
When I first saw this sample, it reminded me of one of the native designs. Or perhaps the colours remind you of a southwestern theme. I have always admired the southwestern turquoise stones in necklaces and rings I’ve seen from Arizona. I remember the first time I visited Phoenix how red the earth appeared in…
The expression “flower power” brings back memories from the 70’s BUT today is all about flower power in wool applique. I’m delighted to share another flower from Kathleen’s project. The pattern is by Australian designer Wendy Williams called “Baby Blooms Cushion” measuring 20 inches square. Kathleen has used a grey and white polka dot cotton…
On a recent visit to the nursery I saw a variety of sunflower plants. So, why not show you a sunflower Temari! I always think of autumn when I see sunflowers mainly because I tend to see them in fall displays at local farm markets. There is a farm market close by with one of…
