Just a couple of other notes for your information- our blog has "updated"  it's settings etc.  So there are some options that we used to have on our blog that we no longer have available.  The most interesting one is that we no longer get notifications when people make comments on our page.  Since we are not posting everyday, we don't always see them  until much later.  Please if you have a question then email us.  It is listed under our profile.  (praiseworthystch@bellsouth.net)  We always love hearing from you!! So please let us know if we can help!  We also are on Facebook and Instagram under Praiseworthy Stitches.  

Thank you for all of your support.  It means the world to us to know that we can bring joy in to your lives.  Take care and God bless you.
Happy Stitching!

Our office and other disasters



So many of you would like to see our office (a small converted bedroom at Pam's house) and see what we are doing. Well here it is. All those bright colors are not just on our designs! We love color and we have lined the wall of the office with floss. What inspiration!



But that is only the two walls--turn around and you see--more floss!
