Sampler of the Season - Winter

Here's a peak...
To be released October 5th,
upon my return from our little get-a-way.

The linen and floss kits
for this sampler are already here....yayyyyyy !!!!

We are still patiently waiting for our Weeks Dye Works linens.
We have several of you waiting for these
and
please know we will ship just as soon as our order arrives.
The word on the long waits
for the linens
is that the mills in Belgium
shut down for holiday
for the whole month of August.
The USA hand-dyers depend on these mills
for their linens,
causing us all much distress.
Last word is,
they have their linens
and are dying as fast as they can.
I'm wondering if this back log of linens
and
dying needs
is even slowing down the shipment of flosses,
as it seems like
we are even having hard times
getting complete orders for the flosses.
So we just wait,
as we all love the wonderful looks
that these hand-dyed fibers
give our finished works.

Happy Fall Y'all,
Brenda

Brenda ... Please put me on the waiting list for this chart as well as the linen that goes with it (I probably have the floss if it's DMC, WDW or GA). I love it just by the little bit showing that you are teasing us with : ) Have a wonderful time on your getaway! Blessings, Shirlee

VERY NICE, DID YOU MAKE THE TINY STARS?

From the "peek" I can certainly tell that the Winter Sampler is going to be a must-have for me!

Every January I notice how bare my house and walls look, since I decorate for Autumn in September and then go right into Christmas decorating after Thanksgiving. I definitely need to start stitching some winter-themed projects and this is perfect!

I hope you have a great getaway!

The Winter sampler looks even more adorable than the Autumn one, if that's even possible. Did you make the cute little stars? I'd love to know how.
