I recorded on Friday this week since we are having our grandkids all weekend (ages 1 and 2). Pray for us! 😂

“For the Love of Nature” Fabric Line

As stated in my video, I was teaching my CW Live painting class and someone congratulated me on my Riley Blake Designs fabric line. I was like “where did you see it?” She said it was on RDB website. So all my students that were with me live went to the site and I knew this because they all were commenting on how they loved the line. So I too went to the website and was delighted to see it! Here is a link so you can check it out as well. Contact your LQS (local quilt shop) to make sure they’ve preordered the line

“Retiring” Patterns

Due to storage issues, we plan to retire a lot of cross stitch and punchneedle patterns in April. I will create a list and share it so if you want a physical pattern or hard copy, you can make sure to get it.

After we retire these patterns they will be made into PDF only patterns and only available in my Etsy shop. This way the patterns will still be available but we won’t have to store inventory for the physical patterns. We have to make room for new!

Needlework

Unfortunately I have no progress on my cross stitch and haven’t started a new punchneedle due to working on my Halloween fabric line for Riley Black Designs.

Art

CW Live we started Maddy’s Heart Trio. We got a lot done in one lesson. I love her!

I’m still working on “Perfect Love” during Whatcha Paintin Wednesday. I fixed Baby Jesus’ face and worked on Mary’s hair.

Join Kristin and I on Wednesday at 2pm eastern time and chat with us while we paint live on Facebook and YouTube.

FINISHES

If you don’t have a subscription to Punchneedle and Primitive Stitchers Magazine, you need to do so today! It’s the best magazine for cross stitch and punchneedle.

I’ve been so fortunate to have one of my designs in every issue since the magazine started. Here’s my contribution to the Spring 2021 magazine and my finishing video.

HAUL

That’s all folks! See you next week!
