Anyway

A customer requested a finished piece with this poem by Mother Teresa.  I now offer the pattern I compiled in my shop.

Babies Don't Keep

An Etsy customer asked me to design a pattern for this poem, and I offered it to the general public after I completed hers - selling it two more times in quick succession!  I also discovered with this project that the 32 count linen I buy isn't exact in it's thread count - making the finished project have different dimensions depending on what direction I use the fabric.

I also completed one on 28 count evenweave cotton fabric - it was nice seeing how the design looked when the count was the same size in both directions.

I now offer the pattern in my shop.

Snoopy Car Sampler

I wanted to do another Snoopy sampler for my second son, since I was reusing the same nursery decor, but I was definitely not going to do the huge pattern I did the first time!  Once again, I couldn't find a baby sampler I liked, so I found this cute generic pattern online and just added the personalization myself.

A Virtuous Woman

I finished this design that was in my WIP stash for awhile, and it's now in my Etsy shop.  I love the bright, cheerful colors!

O Holy Night Advent Calendar

I fell in love with this advent calendar, so when my oldest son started getting big enough to enjoy counting down the days till Christmas, I made it.  It always makes me smile!
