New in the Etsy Shop

 Love, Hugs, and Ladybugs is now in the Etsy Shop.  Etsy Shop This pattern is part of my Ladybug series that is being released.  At this time there is a total of 5 designs with 2 charts already added to the shop.  The first Ladybug pattern was Love Bug.  Both models was stitched on 14ct hand dyed Zweigart fabric.  I dyed the fabric with Rit Dye. I used colors Lemon Yellow and Marigold.   The fabric turned out absolutely B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L ! I used all DMC floss to stitch this pattern. DMC floss included : 310, B5200, 321, and 972.  I finished both patterns similarly.  I started with  two red Baskets from PopShelf.  I added red rick rack  between the aida stitch board and the black with white dot back board.   To finish off both pieces I added cute little ladybugs from Hobby Lobby which I found in the floral area.  The Ladybugs come with floral wire attached to them.

New Cross Stitch Pattern.

 I have been working on a new cross stitch pattern.  




If you know me....you know that I love Daisies.  My front yard bed is full of Daisies.  I kitchen decor is Daisies.  It has been since I married 25 years ago.   I think my love of Daises  originated from wanting to be named Daisy Mae as a child. 


So this cross stitch pattern has been in the works for a while. Now that I am Finished I absolutely love it. 



I stitch this on 14ct Black Zweigart Aida from Hobby Lobby. I am not really a fan of Black aida, but I stuck it out and I think it works.   I used all DMC thread.   The pattern only uses three colors : 727, 988, and 3865.  




I finished the pattern on a tin piece from Hobby Lobby. The item number is 1548742.  The yellow checker background fabric was from Joann. 




This pattern finishes 3.6" x 9" on 14ct aida.  The stitch count is 50 x 124. 


This new pattern can be found as a PDF  in my etsy shop linked on the blog.
