First of all, thank you so much for the super sweet comments and messages regarding my ThermOWeb design tutorial - I am so thrilled you like my Growing Hearts Valentine Pocket! I look forward to sharing more pattern tutorials with you in the coming months...
I have been crazy busy working on all sorts of creative projects...and today, I am here to tell you all about one of those projects....yes, it's a new cross stitch design alert! I just released a brand new stitchy/quilty cross stitch design called "Perched on a Pincushion" and it is available in both paper pattern and digital format in my Etsy shop. Here are a few more details...
Perched on a Pincushion (BRD-131)
Introducing the fourth set of Rick Rack Rounds!
Just like it's predecessors Sweet Slice of Liberty, Hitchin' A Ride, and Sunflower Delivery, these have a stitch count of 48" x 48" and are stitched on 32-count fabric, measuring 3 1/4" round. I stitched "Perched on a Pincushion" (named for the bluebird perched on the tomato pincushion) on 32-count Bisque by Lakeside Linens with Sulky 12 Wt. Cotton Petites (DMC equivalents are also provided). You can use almost any neutral fabric color for these stitching beauties and pick your favorite cheerful floss colors. The pattern includes complete finishing instructions for my Rick Rack Rounds - and you can insert pins as I did...or they look great with just the rick rack (or trim of your choice) - I used hand-dyed rick rack from Lady Dot Creates. These make great bowl fillers or could be finished as seasonal ornaments. The pattern comes with a plethora of creative ideas! I filmed a comprehensive FlossTube video showing how to do the finishing on these, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/YkBe77naAZI. These sewing-themed rounds are quick to stitch and easy to finish...and more seasonal/holiday Rick Rack Rounds are on the way!

I really hope you like this new stitching/sewing/quilting inspired design - I truly enjoyed creating it!
I have another new cross stitch design that will be available REALLY soon and a sewing pattern, as well...so stay tuned for those...
...and, I have needlework finishing and custom work to complete for clients...piles of sewing to complete for my Etsy shop...and another project tutorial for the ThermOWeb blog that will be available in February, so I will be back to visit with you again before you know it! Send some good vibes that my fancy sewing machine will be repaired really soon...my heart will be much happier when it is home...and it will make my job so much easier.
Thanks for stopping by today and for always being so supportive of my creativity...💗
