6 Hem Sampler

I thought I would add a couple of pictures of things I have had framed recently. Warm Christmas Wishes is an Emie Bishop (Cross 'N Patch) design that I finished a long time ago but hadn't gotten framed. The 6 Hem Sampler is designed by Catherine Strickler of Indigo Rose Designs and was finished quite recently.

Want to see My Son Framed....?

Here it is finally.....I picked this up from the framer a week or so ago but hadn't posted a picture, so enjoy. LHM is very happy to have 'his needlework' at home and hanging on the wall. As an aside, it is the LHM's last single-digit birthday tomorrow *sigh*. He is becoming so grown up. I really miss my 'baby' but I am enjoying seeing him grow into a great little man!

Indigo Rose - My Son

I did this for my son Liam (the LHM) - he is quite stoked to see it completed and can't wait for it to come back from the framers. It's another Indigo Rose design - My Son. Catherine Strickler is a very talented designer and while some of her designs are quite small - they are interesting to stitch with all the specialty stitches and a little bit of hardanger!

This one is stitched on 28 count Lt Mocha linen and with the Caron silks and Anchor stranded cottons.

Indigo Rose - Betsy

Indigo Rose - Betsy. I finished this one in 2002 but only recently had it framed...it is tiny - just 40 or so stitches wide and I did change the colours to five colours in one colour family! It really is very effective.
