  • Keeping it Simple - Puppy Love and The Gingerbread Man

    I have to tell you a story of love at first sight. I have to tell you the story of Keiko. She is one of the newest members of the family (kind of).

  • How to Work in a Paperless World

    Did you ever wonder what it would be like to actually see the top of your desk through all those bills, notes, orders ...... and the list goes on. I know that feeling of "where did I just put that!" I know it's within arms reach because it was just in my hand and I haven't moved! Hello...

  • Holiday Travel, Needles & African Folklore Embroidery

    I used to be a really nervous flyer, every bump, thump, or noise would startle me. Reading just would not relax me and chatting to the passenger next to me would not succeed in calming me. Things began changing for me once I started bringing my African Folklore Embroidery kit on board the airplane. The...

  • Keeping It Simple - Embroidered Lace Snowflake Ornaments

    Each time she visits my granddaughter asks if we can get the manger set out early this year. It is very old and worn but she loves to play with it, taking the figures on the trip to Bethlehem.

  • Re: Embroiderying on Satin Jacket, with thin lining....Help

    When you frame the jacket, make sure the lining and jacket is smooth. Frame it tight in the frame with a tear away baking, then pull any looseness out and float another piece of backing. I use a heavy cut away for the one I float. If you have it tight enough in the frame it will not slip, and the extra...

  • Halloween Costume – A Dancing Princess

    This week I finished putting up my Halloween decorations. I made a few new ones this year, since my old ones were simply falling apart. Instead of the scarecrow on the front door I made a wall hanging that is interchangeable for each holiday. But that is a project I will share another day when I can...

  • I have no idea what this is going to look like?

    Fall is my favorite season. I love how the weather changes from brutally hot to just perfect! I love being cozy and taking out my current stitching project, curling up on a chair beside the fire and watching how my African Folklore Embroidery design takes on a life of its own. My parents are currently...
