This week I have a lot to share! Here is the video if you’d like to take a look.
Patreon
First thing Monday morning because it was the first of the month, I uploaded the Patreon charts and coloring book pages! Here is a photo of the charts released to patrons only. To learn more about the perks of my Patreon, go here.
ANNOUNCEMENT
Park Design is coming out very soon with some beautiful products from my punchneedle design. The line is called Farm Life. They just introduced it in January and will start shipping soon to country/gift shops across the globe.
I’m so grateful to be working with this company for the past 20 years. They are great to work with and their products are amazing!
WIPS (works in progress)
Art Wips
This painting is not named yet. Sometimes the name doesn’t come to me until I’m done with a painting.
I’m recording myself creating this painting and will be creating a 2nd coordinating painting for tutorial to hopefully be released in the spring 2021.
Next is “Sunkissed” which we are painting in CW Live. Creative Whims Live is private Facebook group where I teach every Tuesday night at 7pm live with the students who have paid to be there. The sessions are 3 months long. We start a lesson one week and finish it the following week for a total of 6 projects per session. To learn more and to get signed up for the next session, visit Gather Dream Create.
Meet Brigid. I’m painting her live on Whatcha Paintin Wednesday where I painting live on Facebook and YouTube with my soul sister, Kristin of Shabby Perceptions. I live in Michigan and she lives in Tennessee. We love spending that time together painting while chatting with each other and folks that join us live.
Here is this week’s video:
Needlework Wips
My challenge to myself was to stitch 20-25 stitches a day every week until it’s done. I banked all my days this week and stitched all 178 on Saturday morning.
I started a new punchneedle design. This will be a March release. I’m frogging the hair to replace with a lighter color thread. Planning to work on it Sunday during the Superbowl.
Finishes
I didn’t have any finishes but I had 4 ladies send it their finishes. Thank you 😊

Clever Storage
In 2020 I spent many hours cleaning and organizing my studio. It was a lot of work but I still haven’t cleaned and organized my cupboards in the studio….and I have a lot of them!
So little by little, so I don’t get overwhelmed, I’m organizing when I have the time. This week, I took a vintage suitcase and organized all my Lady Dots Creates and Dames of the Needle finishing trims which include, mini pom pom, chenielle, rick rack, velvet ribbon and velvet backing fabric.
Well friends,
That’s all for this week! Wishing you a blessed week ahead.
