New Designs!

Tonight is Halloween

The Fall Harvest Market Hop opens today and I wanted to give you a preview of my new designs.  I'm so happy to be back in the designing game again!  

I'll post the photos first, then below I'll give you the low down on each design.

Halloween Stocking
(This is a teaching piece I'm releasing) 


Miss Elizabeth Perkins


Time Enough


Ann Smith, A Quaker Reproduction Sampler


And the low down.....

 Tonight is Halloween
Stitched on 40-Count Ale from Picture This Plus using DMC threads.  Stitch Count is 245 wide by 127 high.

Halloween Stocking
Stitched on 36-Count "Linen" from Weeks Dye Works using Needlepoint Silks in:  
302, 555, 607, 764, 863, 867, 993.  As always, a conversion to DMC is provided.  You will also need small ball trim in black from Dames of the Needle, From the Cauldron.  Stitch Count is 78 wide by 144 high.

Miss Elizabeth Perkins
Stitched on 40-Count Doubloon from Picture This Plus using DMC threads.  Stitch Count is 141 wide by 222 high.

Time Enough
Stitched on 40-Count Gingerbread from Picture This Plus using DMC threads.  Stitch count is 114 wide by 120 high.

Ann Smith, Quaker Reproduction Sampler
Recommended linen is 35 or 36 Count Mocha from Weeks Dye Works.  (NOTE:  the chart lists Weeks' "Linen" as the recommended fabric and this is NOT correct.)  The antique sampler is stitched with silk threads and I've listed Needlepoint Silks, plus DMC, and Gentle Art Sampler Threads as options.  The stitch count is 217 wide by 274 high.

There you have them!  I hope you find one or two that tickle your fancy!
