Arabella

     I loved every minute of stitching on Arabella S. Graves. It was my first project stitched on Lakeside Linen's 52/64 ct. unevenweave linen and it won't be the last. I can't wait to get my package from The Attic with the linen and Tudor Silks to stitch Scarlet Lettter's Ann Thompson.

     If you've been reluctant to try the 52/64 ct. unevenweave linen... give it a try. You won't be disappointed. If you can stitch on 40 ct. linen you can stitch on the higher count unevenweave linen. I had difficulty using the sewing method on the 45 ct. linen, my preferred method of stitching, but had no problems using the sewing method on the 52/64 ct. linen. Go ahead... you know you want to give it a try!!!

      I was very happy to put the final stitches onto Summer at Hollyberry Farm this past week. A wonderful piece to add to my Americana collection of stitchery. Thanks Stacy Nash for your wonderful design!

     I also added another small piece to the "To Be Finished' pile.

     I've been busy this weekend stitching an ornament for our Guild's Christmas Party Ornament Exchange. I'll make sure to take a photo and include it in my next blog post. I want to keep it a 'secret' until after the party.

     I think my little man is dreaming of the perfect gift he'd like to receive from Santa this year. His throne chair is already decked out for the holidays!

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving
