*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Finally! I ***think*** we going to kick off springtime here in the Carolinas~~ Its warming up some and it's time to show you a few recent creations that will surely remind of sunnier days ahead.... enjoy~~
Easter Parade by With thy Needle & Thread
I rouched a wider (5/8") ribbon for the edging.... I love the extra pop of color it gives~
Im pretty sure this customer stitched on a 40 ct linen.... Called for overdyed threads...
Happy Spring by Snowflower Diaries.... A freebie design... I made this one into a thin padded pillow to out in sweet childs Easter Egg basket~~
Easter Parade by With thy Needle & Thread..... I made a large pillow~
A simple cotton lace is sewn on each end of the pillow.... Allowing no distractions from this beautifully stitched design....
On a side note to my cross stitch finishing, I thought I'd share a few framed pieces I have hung in our home..... Just picked up from the framers.....I've started a Scarlet Letter Sampler area in the dining room....
From left to right....And All was for an Appil.....Rebecca Robinson....Margaret Randolph
And in my breakfast nook....over the pie safe...
I knew once I had seen this design, I'd have to stitch it! It's Land of the Free by Willow Hill Samplings.... Look ***here*** to see where I was ........
Well..... Here's hoping your weekend is great! Keep stitching and enjoying the March Madness~~
.......Go Tarheels......

Beautiful photos! Thank you. Every time I see that Easter Parade, I love it, but then remind myself that I'm not that in to "cute", so I talk myself out of purchasing it . . . . as I age, I feel myself gradually giving in to cute more & more. ha!
Beautiful finishes, Faye! Love your sampler wall, too!
All are lovely. Your framed pieces are beautiful. I am really enjoying March Madness. Not really cheering for anyone in paticular, although I did fill out a bracket.
Enjoy this warm weather we are having here finally and take care :)
A fresh breath of spring through your finishes, and a nice hug from home with your sampler displays! Thanks for sharing.

Your finishes and your newly-framed pieces are just stunning, Sis! :)
OH MY ! lucky stitchers getting those beauties back just in time to enjoy for Easter festivities. Loved taking a peek at your SL wall and I love Home of the Free, I have it started but no where near finished. Glad to hear spring has sprung in NC. Enjoy! Mel
It's 19 degrees here so it does not feel much like spring. I welcomed viewing your spring finishes! They are so very beautiful.
Gorgeous samplers!
Land of the Free is so wonderful - I love, love it. And your spring parade is so sweet! blessings, marlene
I'm hoping to start Peter and Peep this week. Could you tell me what thread count you used and how large your pillow is? Thanks.
I would love to stitch the Willow Tree Sampler - Land that I Love but a quick search at 3:30am doesn't lead me anywhere. Do you know where I might buy it? Did you substitute any colors?
Love all your work!!! I too would love to stitch Land of the Free but can't find it anywhere!!
I love the rouched ribbons you used on the pillows!
