Tahiti...

I just got this photo of Tahiti framed from Barbi in Arizona. I loved designing and stitching this piece so much and have had tons of positive reaction to it. It's just fun and the type of design I enjoy most - a little of "this and that all over the place"!  It's part of my "Destinations Collection" - designs inspired by places I've been or would like to go! I've never been to Tahiti but will get there someday!

And here's my original piece - see how the same design with a little color changes and different framing makes it look so different! Look closely and you'll see she changed the orange to pink! She's famous for doing her "own colors" and always does a great job!


I'm discovering blogland is more fun when I'm in it instead of lurking around! Thanks for stopping by and your encouraging, supportive words!

  1. These are the types of designs by you that I LOVE! I am not a "symmetrical" kind of gal, like to have the entire piece different so Thank You!!

Autumn Logs pillow

Just a quick post to show my finished Autumn Logs made into a pillow. The center looks washed out in the photo but I can't take another because I sent the pillow up to Fireside Stitchery - they're having a Needle Delights Originals trunk show right now and have over a dozen of my pieces - check them out if you're in the northeast! http://www.firesidestitchery.com/     Today is the first day of my online class "Inchies" - here's the Confetti colorway - one of my students already finished it and sent a photo!     I'm working on something new and will show you a peek soon!

More Serenity and something new...

I'm so pleased to show you photos of some of my students' work! They've had such fun stitching Serenity and several have completed it. It's such fun to see the different colorways come to life! First up is Pam B's - it's called "Flowers of Italy". She was clever and added her initials to the piece - can you find them?!   Next is Highland Garden - it was one of the most popular colorways!   And here's Arnhem Heath, the ever popular purple and green!  I'll be teaching this project at Needle in a Haystack in Alameda, CA next month - if you're wanting some Serenity, come join us. You can see all the info here. Kathy

In full swing...

I've been getting ready for my big summer trip - I'm heading to the midwest next month. First I'll be attending the TNNA Needlework tradeshow in St Charles, Missouri and then am heading to Chicago for the ANG National Seminar. I'm taking a class with Orna Willis and looking forward to being with someone who has great color sense! I'll also be participating at Expo Night. I'm looking for a couple of people who have experience in such events who would be willing to help me - contact me privately if you are interested.  Before I go to Seminar, I'll be teaching August 22-23 at Tomorrow's Heirlooms. You can get more details on their Facebook page here . I'm really having fun working on the piece and wish I could show you part of it but alas, it's a Mystery! I haven't done a Mystery class for the last two years and I'm happy to be designing another - I look forward to being able to share it and eventually publish it. I will be releasing six
