Trilogy Friendship


I stitched Trilogy's Friendship as a SAL on the Bent Creek/Heart in Hand/Trilogy yahoo group. I stitched mine on R& R 30 ct Korty's Special Blend linen and changed some of the browns in the design to coordinate better with the fabric. Mostly I used the recommended WDW and GAST floss. I added a heart charm in place of the recommended bird charm. I haven't decided yet if this will be a gift for someone or if I'll actually keep this one!

LHN The Family Sampler

I had the great honor of stitching the model for Little House Needleworks The Family Sampler. After having stitched this once I can honestly say that I cannot wait to stitch it again for myself too! In fact it was quite the struggle sending it back to Diane and not keeping it! HA! She has thought of everything on this sampler and has many options included in this chart that aren't shown stitched in the above picture. I'm really looking forward to personalizing it for my family.

CCN Little Miss Muffet




I was able to stitch the model for Country Cottage Needleworks Little Miss Muffet. I think this was the first spider I've ever stitched! The stitched spiders are certainly a lot cuter than the real ones! This picture just cannot do the design justice. The nursery rhymes series that Nikki is designing is so cute and delicate in person! I highly recommend them!!!!

CCN Liberty Lane

I stitched Country Cottage Needleworks Liberty Lane design for myself! I had a SAL with some friends and we each made some color changes to match our homes. Special thanks to Sherre, Jenn, and Rita!! I stitched this on Sassy's 28 ct sugared coffee linen with DMC and 1 Crescent Colours floss (Wavy Navy). I'm so happy with how this turned out!
