New Designs for The Needlework Expo 2021

         Susan and I are excited about giving you a pre-show reveal at what we have been getting ready for the Needlework Expo!  The Needlework Expo is a wholesale market that can only be attended by shop owners.  However, you can select your favorites and have your favorite order them for you!  We hope that you will enjoy our new designs!


Wedding at Mermaid's Cove 
There's a wedding on this sunny day at Mermaid's Cove!  Look at all the little "brides" and groom's men dressed for the wedding! Do you see how the bride just seems to sparkle on her special day?  There is even a whale signaling lots of good luck on the horizon and a mermaid over at the lighthouse watching all of the festivities!  It's a wonderful day in Mermaid's Cove. 


Morning Tweet
It's early in the morning in Birdtown and all the birds have started to leave their nests to start the day.  The sun is coming up-listen, did you hear it? It is the first tweet of the day.  All the little ears have perked up for all the news to be gathered in the first Morning Tweet!

                                                        


Mary E. Allen Sampler
The Mary E. Allen Sampler was stitched in 1836.  The original sampler was stitched on plain, even-weave linen with 2 ply silk floss.  It incorporates cross stitch, satin stitch, rice, Algerian and Smyrna stitches and is hem-stitched around the edges.

Creepy Pumpkin Stackers 
Our pumpkin patch is haunted!  Just look at the pumpkins-they have all sorts of bats, cats & monsters peeping out of them and dancing all around them!  Some of the monsters are even glowing in the dark! These pumpkins are full of mischief!! They are even stacking themselves 2 or 3 high so that they can hop out and scare those passing by!  It's going to be an exciting Halloween at the farmer's pumpkin patch this year!


Mr. and Mrs. Claus Ornaments

These 2 ornaments are made as flat-folds; however you can finish them as an ornament for your tree or a small pillow.  Whichever you do, we hope that you will enjoy stitching these fun decorations for your home!

Bouton de Rose kit
This adorable necklace kit is a limited edition kit. The picture shows the back as well as the front. It is a perfect gift for a stitcher!  It uses 32ct linen and DMC floss. All instructions & materials are included.

Happy Stitching!
Pam & Susan
