Missing Symbol for December Snow

Hi all!

We just discovered that we left out the symbol for School House Red on our design December Snow.  It should be a filled in heart. ❤ We hope that this will clear everything up for you.

We are so sorry for the confusion! Thank you for supporting our designs.  We couldn't do this without you.

Happy Stitching!

New Designs for Fall are here!

Mummy's Moonlight Café is our new Halloween design!  
This design is smaller, but just as fun to stitch! Come and have dinner after Trick or Treating!  The mummy has hired the finest chef to serve you all the best.  Some of the new items on the menu are Brown Toad Casserole with worm gravy; Fried Bat Wings, Pickled Newt Eyes; Finger foods and best of all Ghost Cake! It promises to be an exciting meal so make sure you get there before everything sells out. 
 
Autumn Quaker is our new Quaker. 
Stitched with fall colors on 30ct Gold linen from Weeks Dye Works, this design whispers of crisp fall temperatures and the splash of leaves on the ground.  This is small enough that you can stitch it in a couple of weekends. 
 
Happy Stitching!

P.S. Don't forget about our class in Williamsburg.  There are still a few places open!

Annie's Festival in Williamsburg 2017


Quaker Christmas Needle Roll
 This sweet little needle roll and accessories are finally finished! This fun stitching project includes a needle roll that features Dorset Button floss rings, a Christmas Tree needle holder, a stitched & lined pocket that includes rom for personalization, 2 extra pincushion "puffs" at the end of the needle roll.  Note the Trifle Purse to hold thimbles and other goodies. As well as the beaded scissor fob, we will be making an adorable scissor sheath.  Last but not least is the beautiful pinball.  It looks so difficult, but is very simple to make.

This is stitched with linen from Lakeside Linens and floss from A Gentle Art.   All the ribbons and the linings are silk & the beads on the center of the puffs are garnets. 

We are including with the kit some special goodies--wooden Christmas tree floss winders, a heart-shaped waxer, & scissors.  And of course a surprise.  If you have taken classes with us before then you know we like to give each participant a "prezie" just for fun.    WE hope to see you there!!

Happy Stitching!
