KarenP's Monday WIP



A little late posting this, but...I have two current WIPs to show...one is Pumpkin Stew, which should be done in the next day or so, and the other is a Christmas stocking from Dimensions, which I am stitching for someone at the office. She bought the chart some time ago, and her mother bought one like it and they were going to do it together, but her mom passed away last May, so....she asked me if I would do this one for her.

I'm working on this SMO October this week. Here is my progress so Far. The Halloween bug hit me last week and I figured while I wait on some other designs to come in I would work on this one.

Thanks for looking Dawn B.

Semi Finish



I now have to cut the centers out so I can wrap the bars and make Hardanger ornaments.
The bookmark took me about a week only cause I didn't have alot of stitching time on it. The diamond took me about 3 hours to do on Saturday.

Except maybe his gloves ; Haven't decided that yet. If you want a better look you can click on the photo and it will show a blow up.

Peace on Earth


This was an exclusive kit created by by Linda Stolz for The Silver Needle.


POE was stitched on 10ct gray aida with all specialty threads: two different mini suedes, fuzzy stuff, fyre works, perle cotton and over-dyed threads, plus included Mill Hill star embellishments.

Floss Tag

I created the floss tag by using parts of a freebie design called "Tea Time" by Ria Lanser. The tag was stitched on 18ct mauve aida using Six Strand Sweets Tropical Punch and DMC 208.
