Christmas Stockings

I have been promising photos of the Shepherd's Bush Christmas stockings that I stitched for my family.  At long last; here they are!  The first picture is from 2010 and the second is 2011.  You can see that I have made progress but I still have one more stocking to stitch.  It is started but I am not terribly motivated right now, maybe because it is for me.  It makes a good "take along project" since it is a larger count fabric (18 count linen over 2).  I can stitch on it in the car so I can make good progress when we go to the Nashville Needlework market next month.   Rest assured, I'm the passenger not the driver when I stitch!!

Nancy is still adding more things to the sale section of our catalog http://houseofstitches.com/search.cfm.  Quantities are limited so don't delay!  Help us make room for the new things that will be arriving from the Needlework Market next month.

Happy stitching,
Linda

A new adventure!

Hi, stitching friends!

I hope our new blog will provide a way to keep you informed of the latest happenings here at House of Stitches.  For today, the big news is that the latest Prairie Schooler charts and Shepherd's Bush kits have arrived.  We will have pictures on the website soon.  Until then you can order them by putting a note in the customer comments area of your order.  I have much to learn about blogging; thank you in advance for your patience!

Happy stitching,
Linda
