I finished whip stitching and now I am ready to embellish with embroidery...the fun part!

This is a new wall hanging I'm working on. The background color is called Stormin', a beautiful mottled blue. As usual I stitched a liner to the back fto add a bit more stablitiy. Also this time I used the  paper templates as stitch guides, since it's difficult to draw onto wool. And it worked great.  You can see I have the window pinned in place and I will couch red crochet thread all around it.Then I'll remove the paper and continue stitching the other elements of the window.

My latest version of the tree of life is now completed and is available in our shop as a kit and pattern

I started working on another Tree of Life: same pattern as before but in different colors. I had many requests for a kit so this is the reason I'm doing another piece. Sadly, I didn't keep records of threads, fabric color and size. So here we go.

I'm using Ecru for the background this time, mottled so it looks vintage. I will be posting more info as I progress.

I've been busy working on this new design of mine. As you know I'm smitten with the birds these days. I will be offering this one as a kit in a #8 cut, which I think will be perfect for beginners.

Stitched up a few more birds for the  Dungeness River Center.
