I'd Love to Stitch This


I found this project pictured on a French website http://perso.orange.fr/isadarenabroderie/index.htm and I really would love to stitch it. I especially love the little dog. Isn't it cute? From what I can understand, this talented lady designed these patterns. I've tried to contact her but I have not gotten a response. If anyone can direct me as to how I can purchase these charts, I'd be very grateful.



Thank you so much for your compliments on the wall hanging for Marie. I really appreciate your taking time to read and leave comments on my blog.

Summer Exchange for Marie


I received the nicest e-mail from Marie letting me know that she received the summer portion of our seasonal exchange. I was so happy when Becky sent out the names and I saw that Marie would be my recipient. I enjoy stitching Prairie Schooler designs and I knew that Marie was fond of them too, so I decided to stitch one of the Summer Samplers.

This was a really fun project to stitch and sew. I bought a new Pfaff sewing machine this summer and it's really great for these quilted projects. My daughter and I had a good time selecting the fabrics together and I relied heavily on her superb eye for color. The photos are clickable and you'll see a much sharper picture if you click on them. My daughter's boyfriend lent us his new Sony digital camera. It sure takes nice pictures!

Thanks for stopping by.
