Most Important Finish Of The Year

Jake's Christmas ornament is done and ready to go to the finisher. I am so happy with the way this ornament came. It is a Carol Dupree Christmas mitten.


Hope Jake likes it.

July 4th Festivities

Hope everyone enjoyed this Independence Day weekend. I took a little time to work up this cute little patriotic canvas. I recently purchased about a half dozen of these Kathy Shenkel canvases: American flag heart, Uncle Sam, Lady Liberty & some elephants. 

Going back to my Christmas banner: hoping to make the finishing deadline! 

Happy Birthday, America!

The Big Reveal Part 1

After two weeks of working on organizing my sewing room, I am just about finished.
I have to get a new label maker to mark each box with the thread name


This built-in has a desk top for my computer, and also has some of my needlepoint books, magnetic board for magnets and of course pictures of Jake.


The lower part of the cabinet holds my office supplies and more books. I also have my Home Study Binders in this cabinet.


Built-in number two.


Threads are stored in this cabinet. Also in this cabinet are Amy DVDs, glass laying tools, sewing scissors, all my beading threads, decorative buttons and beads.


This is a picture of my storage boxes for Kreinik.


Here are the boxes I purchased at the Container Store that hold all my beads.




The bottom of this cabinet holds more threads, a box filled with needles and another box filled with fray check, thread heaven, thread drops and various other needlepoint tools

I am thrilled with the reorganization of my sewing room. It is so nice opening a cabinet and not having bags of threads falling on my head. Everything has a place and as I finish a project all the threads from it will be put into the proper thread boxes.

More to come tomorrow.

Santa Arrived Early

The UPS man delivered this wonderful package to me today.

This is Ruth Schmuff's new Mystery Class With A Twist. The canvas is Christmas Village by Melissa Shirley. The photos of this canvas do not do it justice. It is absolutely fabulous in person. Ruth sent us a wonderful reindeer magnet and two fabulous bags. One bag is for all our beads and the other is for all our threads.
I love these bags. They will certainly keep you organized.


I want to start this right now but have a few small projects to finish before holiday deadlines. Okay, I admit I cannot resist. I will get it on bars tonight and will probably start the sky.

New Project

Just picked up this ornament to do for Jake. Stitch by Stitch in Larchmont ordered it for me. It is a Carol Dupree canvas.



Off to get started. This is my project for this afternoon.

Another Finish for 2013

I just finished stitching HeartStrings Pine Santa. This is the first HeartStrings canvas I have stitched and thoroughly enjoyed stitching it. Taking it to be finished tomorrow. Cannot wait to see him finished.



Trying to get some Halloween and Christmas projects done before the deadlines.
