A most Patriotic Giveaway~

Greetings to all~

Before I give the details on my giveaway, I'd like to share a couple stitches that I've been working on of late.... Yes, I love finishing for others, but, I also cherish my time for personal stitching~~ I have two Patriotic show stoppers; one completed and one very near completion....

Patriotic Poppies was a most relaxing stitch...

...the right Patriotic elements are in this design....


...stitched with all the specified threads~ even the wool felts she offered on her website....


...what I call a "centerpiece stitch"... Sure to get a second look~


There is just something soothing about a With thy Needle & Thread design~


My current stitch, that I simply cannot put down is Beggars 4th by Threadwork Primitives.....

I'm about half done and you can tell its a winner already!!! I substituted Brethren Blue by GAST just to tone down the blue a notch~~ I can't wait to finish it.... I envision wool, buttons, vintage trinkets and the like...stay tuned!

~ Now for my giveaway~. I'd like to share and share a little more with this giveaway!!! I have charts, a kitted chart and more.....


You will receive 3 Patriotic charts..... Have kitted Threadwork Primitives Star Spangled with the called for 30 count Confederate Gray linen, Navy Weeks thread and Faded Red thread~~ wouldn't this make a nice collection??
ALSO included is a 20.00 Gift card to Stitch and Frog...take a peek ***here***to see what wonderful supplies they have to offer~~ This gives you the chance to buy more to add to your basket of goodies..... Sound good?? So, comment on this post and you'll be entered.... It's just that easy!! I will be announcing a winner on May 29th~

I leave you with a pretty bag that I recently made for a sweet customer.... The Heart in Hand and Toile made the prettiest combination.....





.... Here's hoping you enjoy this most glorious weekend where we honor all of those who serve and have served.... Those who have fallen and given the ultimate sacrifice so others may enjoy their freedom day in and day out~

...Much Peace,


Faye

Spotlight Designer~ The Little Mermaid~

....~Greetings fellow stitchers & friends~

Summertime is calling me!!!! That's a song that this Carolina girl knows by heart~ I recently was asked by Teresa of Crocettando fra le pesti to collaborate with her regarding her darling design"The little Mermaid"...Her design.... My stitching and vision of its finish.... Well, I happily took her up on the opportunity as I LOVE all things summer, beach and nautical...... What wasn't to love????

Here is the end result~~


The simple lines along with a blue with browns colorway...ahhhhh....



...I knew would want the final finish to be useful as well...



A pocket to hold needfuls.... The key charm seemed just right~



... I felt like a slightly scalloped edge would seem like the rolling waves...and, it would showcase the seashell charm~~ subtle additions to this prim design~



This cute piece will stay the beach... And will put a smile each time I walk by~

Thanks again Teresa for calling on me to be a part of this fun project... Your primtastic designs and freebies, we all love~


Happy stitching!!!

Faye
