when I’m having fun and creating new designs! I’ve been super busy the last few months working on all kinds of secret projects. I’m almost done stitching a large Mystery design that will soon be available as an online class. This is my fifth Mystery design (you can see the others here) and I think it’s…

I’m almost done unpacking from my epic trip up north and still trying to catch up with all that happened in the two plus weeks I was gone. That accompanied by many breaks to pet cats who nudge me and jump in my lap constantly no matter what I’m doing, and wanting to have time…

I’m excited to announce the creation of a new series and show you the first offering.

So I stitched this…   and then this….   and…

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.

Most of them are based on Rainbow Gallery’s Bravo which I’ve not used a lot. Some of the colors…

After 26.81 inches of rainfall in 36 hours earlier this week, we’re drying out and enjoying a sunny weekend in Pensacola. Although there is a lot of damage around the county from the flooding, I am fortunate to not have suffered any damage to my house or neighborhood. I did have a shallow lake in…

I’m happy to announce I’ve finished my big Summer Release – Colorwaves! I put the last stitch in a couple of days ago! I still have to finish writing instructions before it goes to print but the official Release Date is May 21st. This is one of the most fun pieces I’ve designed and I’m…

Congratulations to Maxine C. who won a ribbon at Woodlawn with Duality – she took this as a class from me and Jeanette Rees (my mom!) at a Retreat we hosted a couple of years ago. We’re actually teaching this in June at the South Central EGA Region Seminar in Baton Rouge.
