Top of the Mornin'

To celebrate St Patrick's Day, I share one of my best selling Color Delights - Shamrock! It was one of the first Color Delights designs I did and just made me think "Kelly Green" which took me to "Irish" to "St Patty's Day" and voila, "Shamrock" because all of my Color Delights titles are one word for the color name. 

And here's what Gretchen from Threads Inc did with it - you can contact her if you're interested in it. There are several colorways and I think she did a fantastic job with my humble little design, adding and multiplying the patterns and choosing alternative colorways on top of it all! 


I'm mailing the last of the Mystery kits for my ongoing class today and then moving on to some seriously needed "spring cleaning"! We had 80 degree weather yesterday so I think our Winter is finally gone...I'm happy to see it go and holding on to the hope that we actually have a Spring and not jump right into Summer!

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

New website design

 I'm thrilled to announce and introduce my new website. It's been live for a week or so. You can find it at the old address of www.needledelights.com - it has a completely new look and is easy to navigate. You can subscribe on the website and then will receive regular email newsletters from me. I'll also be blogging from the website as soon as I complete some training so this blog will be closing down. I'm starting to make kits for this year's Mystery - I ordered some extra threads to make a few additional kits so if you missed the signup and are still interested, email me. Class starts February 14th. You can see all the details  here . I'm working on exciting new designs to release at Nashville in March. Here's the beginning of a larger design I'm calling Gypsy. I loved working with the rich jewel tone colors and the design has a Bohemian feel. I can't wait to show you the rest of it when I officially announce my Nashville releases! I'l

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!
