NEW Cross Stitch !!!!




I have received new stitching to stitch !!! whooo whoooo !!! Now where do I begin.... I guess with this chart and floss for Shakespeare's Peddler. http://www.shakespearespeddler.blogspot.com/

Chart is Jenny Bean's Halloween Sampler. Designer Teresa, had the bag of Gentle Art Thread to go with it. Colors have great names like : Zombie Flesh, Dried Blood,Parched Bones, Coffin Lid, and others. She also has a Pin Tuffet chart to go with this design. I got it also. I am going to stitch this on Champagne Cocktail 40 count by Enchanted Fabrics. http://www.enchantedfabrics.com/







This chart is from The Primitive Needle. Called Tombstone Spots. I have some of the sampler threads and some are on their way to me. This chart called for 40 Count Heritage from PIP. I chose 36 Count Legacy. Like how the linen has a blend of Gray & Greenish color in it. I love old tombstones. I may do all these I purchased and put in the bedroom.









Sorry picture is blurry. Another Primitive Needle Design. Crescent Angel. It also called for Heritage Linen for PIP. I chose 40 count Earthen from PIP. I am waiting on the Color Mountain Mist to arrive to start stitching.








This chart is from Carriage House Samplings. Called The Curse Of The Raven. I have order all threads and cannot find the 40 Count Camofudge linen anywhere... If anyone can help me locate? I tried my On-line shop and she said , can order ( from Austr.) but does not know how long it will take to get to her. Please let me know if you have a America source. Thanks.




This chart is from The Goode Huswife. Called Raven's Roost. See what I mean about all these tombstone charts. I will have to stitch them all.


There is not that much Christmas Charts out there. I did order 2 older ones.



Only 2 Christmas Charts. I had been looking for the M Design - Christmas Catastrophe for a while now. I also am looking the the Halloween one too. I will make pillows out of this one. The other chart is a Carriage House Samplings - 1999 Christmas Sampler.

I also purchased the Book ( pages with punched holes for you to put in a notebook) The Flat-Fold and Friends Pages. Gives directions for : Stand-ups, Boxes, Heavy Weights, Ornaments, and flat-folds. I already have it in a Binder. Maybe I can find time to finish all these projects.

Have a great November 1st!!!

What a great load of stash! I agree with you about the Christmas designs--there doesn't seem to be as great a selection this year. I love the Carriage House older Christmas design that you chose--I'm going to have to order that. And of course, I love the Primitive Needle designs you chose and the Shakespeare's Pddler AND the Goode Huswife--I'd like to stitch every one of them! You've got your stitchy plate full!

Love the stash...especially the Jenny Bean Halloween Sampler! I have been on the fence about that one...guess I'm gonna just have to give in and buy it!

Hope the extreme mobile-home makeover is still going/going well!! Until later...

HAPPY STITCHIN'
