New boxed floss sets give-away enter now!

I had a great day yesterday on my birthday....thanks to many of you who made it so nice. Great presents, dinner out with my family (no cooking or dishes allowed on my birthday as my son spoils me) and a wonderful day with my family.

Today it was back to work and I started putting together some boxed sets of floss with new autumn colors. 12 skeins, 20 yards each, I have previously sold similar boxes and given some away. I always donate them to retreats. In fact I was just contacted today from a guild in Texas asking for a door prize donation and I will send one of these boxes. Retail is $24.95. A nice box with a clear lid and gold stretch loop. I just ordered fold over cards and I will add one. A nice addition if you are giving this set as a gift.

Updating my blog

It has been a long time since I have done anything to my blog and I have decided it has been long enough. I have finished quite a lot of projects since my last entry. 

I still like Mirabilia, but a few have joined Mirabilia since then. 
One of them is With thy Needle and Thread. I have recently went to Silver Needle in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  If you haven't been there, you MUST go sometime! When you walk in, you are hit with:
WHERE DO I START? Literally! I walked out after paying of course, 4 patterns of With thy Needle and Thread, 1 pattern of Stacy Nash and 1 pattern from Primitive Traditions. 

I like With thy Needle and Thread so much, I started a Facebook Group! If you would like to be a member, just look on Facebook and hit join. 

Stacy Nash has lately increased my liking of her patterns. I like how she has seasoned themes to her patterns. Like I just bought Sampler of the Season - Winter, I have summer and spring also. 

Wiehenburg patterns I have always loved. I have quite a few of them. Currently, I am working on Wiehenburg Coat of Arms, it is drop dead beautiful pattern. Personally, I do not like doing monochromatic patterns so as all my friends who know me........
I change colors!  It is not that I don't like the designers choice of colors for their designs, I like to make the pattern my own!
So far Coat of Arms has 3 colors I may keep to those 3 colors or I may  add more. 
I, Janine Smith and Tickled Pink has created a Facebook group called Stitchers of Wiehenburg Cross Stitch and Needlepoint. Martina is branching into Needlepoint and they are beautiful. 
If  you would like to be a member , just look it up on facebook and apply. 

Another designer that I like is, Gigi patterns! I have her Sampler of Saxony that I have started and I love it. I have also bought her Rose Wreath Sampler.

Victorian Motto is having a Valentine Day giveaway!



             Go to Victorian Motto. com and sign up for her Valentine's Day
giveaway!  Her floss is phenomenal and it is very reasonable in cost. Not
only that, there is plenty of different colors, there is more yardage then the
usual overdyed floss that is out. Plus, she has trims, buttons, and patterns!


I just noticed that it has been almost a year since I have updated my blog.
I think it is due for an update so look in the near future of the updated
blog.
