The Sampler lady

I finished The Sampler Lady. I changed some of the colors, because I wanted to use almost the same colors as I used on Home of a Needleworker (too!). I'm going to hang them together in the hallway.

I love my home (change text)

This is a freebie from Little House Needleworks that you got when you bought the floss bundle (4 cotton and 1 silk skein from Classic Colorworks).
This one is stitched with the silk, color Red Fox. The text I changed into Christmas 2014, so it looks more as a Christmas piece.

(part of ) Colonial Homes

I won a wooden DMC cabinet on facebook last week and in front there was a linen pece where you could stitch something on. I choose to stitch the first row of Colonial Homes that fits perfectly.

Again a little pillow, so it can stand with the others in a basket. I hoped by now that we got some sunny days, but when I look outside it looks like autumn.

January, February and March cottage finished

In the last few weeks I finished the January, February and March cottage. I make them into a larger ornament each time with all around a chenille thread.

I also replace the flowers on top and bottom each time with a special stitch and sometimes I change the colors a bit. I realy love these cottages.

Vintage Christmas

This pattern was love at first sight and I ordered it right away when the shop had it. The only thing that I did was change the pink and bright blue color into a country red and blue color so it fits better in my home.

But boy oh boy do I love this piece!!
