Notable Needlework

©Copyright 2020 Belinda Karls-Nace/Blue Ribbon Designs, LLC http://www.blueribbondesigns.blogspot.com

Hello creative friends - it has been a full day and I thought I would briefly drop by before I head back into the studio to finish up another project bag order. I just finished setting up a new thermal printer in my office for shipping labels (a HUGE Christmas surprise that arrived today! - I have had one on my wish list for years!), packing up a few orders and answering some correspondence...so, I thought I would quickly stop by and share some needlework finishing with you. These pieces were all stitched by the same incredible needleworker and I just did the finishing (not my designs or stitching, just my finishing). I will put designer names/titles in the photo captions (when known), just in case you are interested. This stunning group of items was quite fun to work on and I enjoyed choosing the materials...one was a limited edition kit that included finishing materials and for the others, I chose the supplies...doing my best to follow directives from the needleworker. I am really happy with how each and every piece turned out...and I hope the stitcher will be quite pleased too. I packed them all up in a large shipping box when complete and shipped it off on Monday. I still have almost 100 pieces of needlework to finish for clients, so I will have more fun photos to show you soon. For now, enjoy these images...and I hope you will be inspired to pull out your most recent cross stitch piece and do a little needlework finishing yourself...

Spectacular Sixteen

Hello creative friends! I just placed Garin on his after-breakfast timeout...that gives me about an hour to catch up on some pressing work. Orders are packaged and important correspondence is answered...so I thought I would stop by for a quick visit and share some needlework finishing, before the day gets away from me (and I get started on a large AccuQuilt project that I need to complete in a very short amount of time). These pieces were all stitched by the same incredible needleworker (and dear friend) and I simply completed the finishing. I will put designer names/titles in the photo captions (if I have the information), just in case you are interested (special thanks to Robin who sent me the details on one that stumped me!). This fabulous grouping was quite enjoyable to put together and several pieces definitely challenged me. One project was a limited edition kit that included finishing materials (Swirly Birds and Flowers from SamSarah Design Studio)...and one had a pre-finished Winter Thread Pal provided (Winter Wonderland by Little House Needleworks)...for the others, I chose the supplies, doing my best to make the pieces resemble the model images. I am really happy with how each and every piece turned out...and I think (I hope) the stitcher was quite pleased too! I still have well over fifty needlework pieces to finish for clients, so I will have more fun photos to show you soon. For now, enjoy these images...and I hope you will be inspired to pull out your most recent cross stitch piece(s) and do a little needlework finishing yourself...
