March 2021 Releases

Kevin and I are excited for our March release! Below are what we are releasing at the Needlework Expo March 6-8. You can preorder from your favorite LNS or ONS now!

Punchneedle

I have two new punchneedle patterns. The first one is “Soul Sisters” in honor of my BFF Kristin Alexander of Shabby Perceptions. I used our initials but you’d want to write you and your Soul Sisters initials in place of ours.

Soul Sister Definition: a woman whose thoughts, feelings, and attitudes closely match those of another; a kindred spirit.

“This is the Day” was a labor of love. It’s by far the largest punchneedle I’ve ever created! This design was translated from my original painting.

Cross Stitch

We are releasing 8 new designs! I didn’t realize it until a few days ago but 5 of the 8 xs releases have angels. 👼 Pre-order yours today! If you are reading this after March 2021, you can shop your LNS, ONS or my Etsy shop for these charts.

Whimsy Chicks!!! I love these fun chicks. I have sketch books full of them and plan to continue to chart them for cross stitch.

The next design is part of the designer collective named “The Moo The Merrier” or “TMTM”. You can search for both hashtags on Instagram.

Many of your favorite designers have joined the collective by designing a cow chart. It’s a fun way to built your collection if you love cows or farm designs.

Mine is named, Pennsylvania Dutch Farm Series – Heifer…..this is the first of 6 designs for the series. There will be a chicken, pig, sheep, donkey and goat added to the series.

A new “Work of Heart” angel! I release 1-2 a year of these beautiful angels which are translated from my original paintings.

If you know me at all, you know I love Pennsylvania Dutch Frakturs and Pennsylvania Dutch folkart. “Fraktur” is one of my new CW Sampler releases. I love the folksy nature of this design.

“Come to the garden was inspired by my love of gardening” We have several gardens on our property here in Michigan. When I admire the vivid colors of the flowers I always think, “only God can paint with those colors”.

The phrase “thy senses will be overjoyed” is referring to the five senses the garden fulfills. I see the beauty, I touch the dirt and soft leaves/petals, I smell the flowers and ripeness of the fruits/veges, I heart he birds sing and bees buzz and I taste the sweetness of our labors.
