Misty in Wisconsin is a wonderfully creative stitcher who’s thoughtfulness is sure to bring a smile to her friend. Here’s a couple of pics of what she did with my Deck the Halls complimentary pattern.

This ornament is a special gift for a friend who’s husband is stationed over in Afghanistan. The back has a picture of her husband working on base. What a touching gift this will be. Way to go Misty.

I’m trying not to think about new ideas…but they keep pushing themselves to the forefront. Who has time to stitch all my ideas!!! LOL. My goal after christmas is to get a couple of patterns I designed a while back stitched up. One is in the coffee theme and the other is a winter one for a new baby’s room. I don’t do pastels so it’s not your average “baby” style. As for the coffee one, well let’s just say it’s one of my favourite parts of camping! Be sure to check back for my progress.

You are interchangeable.
Fun, free, and into everything, you’ve got every
eventuality covered and every opportunity just
has to be taken. Every fiber is wonderful, and
every day is a new beginning. You are good at
so many things, it’s amazing, but you can
easily lose your place and forget to show up.
They have row counters for people like you!

What kind of knitting needles are you?

I have to say it’s so true…now where was I going?

I received this photo of my pattern Deck the Halls in an email today and I’m just tickled pink over it. Ok, maybe not pink, a little rosy. LOL. This pattern is a complimentary pattern of mine and you can get a copy at 123 STITCH! in the Fun and Free section.

I really enjoy seeing how stitchers choose to stitch my patterns. All the different possibilities. And how they finish it off! This stitcher did an amazing job and I couldn’t be happier. Isn’t it pretty? Thank you so much for letting me post a photo of the finished piece.
