Peacock Tapestry Ornament
TW Designworks
26 ct. Mushroom Lugana, DMC Floss
April 2007

This one completed in April 2007, is a freebie from TW Designworks. Used color suggestions and stitched on 26 ct. mushroom lugana. Finished about 3 x 3. Fun and quick project!



This is one of several WIP's (Renaissance Bookmark-TW Designworks) that I took with me on a cruise to the Greek Isles, Cairo and Istanbul several weeks ago. I spent some afternoons on deck stitching, reading and taking lots of cat-naps! When this is finished, it will be framed.


Another WIP (First Step by Genny Morrow)

First Hardanger

Love Blooms
The Victoria Sampler
28 ct. ivory linen, DMC Floss
April 2007

Here is the first hardanger piece that I have done! I'm quite proud of it! It's a free chart from The Victoria Sampler called Love Blooms. I altered one of the bands that had lettering. Instead of "love blooms always", I added satin stitch hearts and beads. Also made changes to the bead colors to use what I had on hand.
