New Patterns!

I'm happy to share with you

the new summer-time 

cross stitch pattern releases

for your stitching pleasure...

"Strawberry Hill Sampler"

A pattern that centers around re-purposing

a Whitman's Sampler Chocolate box (12 oz cardboard size).

 The box is painted, lined with old book pages,

and then topped off with a lovely cross stitch pinkeep...

a great little box to keep your stitching needfuls!

 

The pattern is filled with 4 fun-to-stitch projects...

A huswife for keeping your needles and scissors safe.

The needle roll folds up, bill-fold style,

and is secured with twill tape tie...

the back of the needle roll huswife

is adorned with a stitched sampler.

The 3rd project is the crow/strawberry pincushion

with antique lace edging and buttons...

And lastly, a little wool felt strawberry!  A little pocket on the front will hold your scissors

and the berry booklet opens up to secure your needle.

All the cross stitch projects in the "Strawberry Hill Sampler" are worked on 35 count Park City Blend linen over two threads.

Tiny little purses worn around your neck

to keep your thimble safe! 

 These can be functional or just a fun accessory.

The pattern includes the mini purse frame.

  All designs are worked on 40 count linen over two threads.

...old buttons stitched to the purse

or slid on the hemp cording

adds extra charm!

Collect and stitch all 5!
