Hi all-Am trying to figure this whole Pinterest thing out--have been "invited" but now am not sure if I'm too tired but will try to sort through this tomorrow! If you have any info on it-suggestions I am open to anything that will help!@!

I finished Pineberry Lane's Bringing Home the Tree and picked this frame--should have ironed the piece and done better with lighting but you get an idea...I stitched it on Picture This Plus Heroic...great splotches of blue and red. I used overdyed fibers to give it an older look yet!

Well, off to see my pups--here is a picture of Sam and Miley on a puffy quilt that "Grammy" sent to Miss Sam on her birthday--we sure do love Grammy!!  Take care and happy stitching! Molly

A New Week

Hi all-Hope you all are enjoying this week so far--we are finding it too nutty with outdoor work and activities...and trying to squeeze in time for stitching! I was working on the back of my property pulling kudzu--unfortunately my sneakers had no tread so I almost did a "Tarzan" move and swung across the train tracks behind my property...too many screws loose in my head!

We continue to see lots of new designs popping up--lots of new goodies that Beth and I put up on our 4/13/12 page of newbies (http://www.strawberrysampler.com/results.cfm?SubCategory=480) This Santa above will be coming from Mirabilia--gorgeous! And two new designs from Country Cottage-their June Cottage and Cherries and Berries...and my 3-D favorite Spring Heart Hop (the second in this series...the first, Where My Heart Is is also in my "to do" pile!)

Hope you all have a good week-enjoy the weather but here's hoping we get some much needed rain soon-I'm going to run out of Visine soon!

New from Loose Feathers/Blackbird Designs

Hello all-I have returned from my long weekend (thank you, Beth for letting me go once again) up to NH...My dad's birthday (#84) was Sunday so a big to-do for him...a little too much for me...and now glad to home with my pups!
Beth warned me about the above--"You're going to love this Molly" and she is right...this is the first of this year's Loose Feather Collection by Blackbird Designs...and I can't wait!
We are having our PJ/March Madness sale this Fri/Sat...make sure to get your new goodies either online Friday night or Saturday morning or here at the shop Saturday...we will be having lots of fun prior to the big games!
Hope all is good with you all-and that you are enjoying your stitching...Until later...

Flowers and birds and doggies oh my!

Well, it's Thursday and normally I'm off hanging with my pups but so behind at the shop that I came in early to try to get caught up--Earlier this week I FINALLY moved into this century and got a smartphone--turned in my dinosaur! Took a pic of Nemo this morning-sad as his Mollygirl was heading out again--Not to worry, buddy, I'll be home early to play in the yard!

I will be adding more new items "to come" tomorrow-was so happy to see the new Cricket Collection charts arrived yesterday--Am going to take the Flower Power chart, button, and 20WDW Guacomole to stitch up this little cutie...see the picture from Shepherds Bush above! The chart is free with the purchase of the button--(I was such a "Flower Power kid-had stickers all over my wall mirror !)

Above is one of the new Country Cottage charts that will be within the next few weeks-along with the May Cottage-it feels like May out there, doesn't it?? Enjoy-and don't forget to catch all of the beautiful colors of Spring these next few weeks!

Coming soon from Cricket Collection

Howdy all! Beth and I just found these and love-love-love these! You know which one is our very favorite--be sure to see these soon!

Hope all is good with you all-we've been busy trying to get all of the new goodies in from the Market--Beth and I were sooo disappointed that we couldn't go this year--hopefully there will be a show in Baltimore again--I haven't checked yet...

Been stitching lots of little birdies--finished the bird in Blackbird's Autumn book and now on to Old Crow from La D Da...if you're in check the new model wall for four models that I have stitched--will try to get a picture posted later this week!
Off to order more new things-I hope you've been enjoying what has been released! And on to decide our Wacky Wednesday theme!

Take care and be good to your loved ones! Molly

Post Game

Hi all-Hope you all are doing well-we had a wonderful weekend at the shop...many thanks to all that attended-so many familiar and not-so-familiar faces...we soooo appreciate all of you that came, emailed, sent orders in...and to all that worked--Stella, Mary Anne, Phyllis, Nancy, Connie, Catherine, Lise, Ruthie, and Beth---thank you for all of your hard work, your smiles, your laughter--we had such a great time...I am so very fortunate to work with people I like AND love!

We are working furiously on cleaning up, ordering, processing orders and getting them out as quickly as possible...in the meantime, the above were seen as "coming soon" from Country Cottage, Raise the Roof, and Trilogy....look for lots more as the Nashville Market quickly approaches!
Keep stitching-keep enjoying our mild winter (for some and for now!) and thanks for stopping by! Have a good rest of your week-

Molly

Howdy all-Here we are another Wacky Wednesday-we are almost halfway through January -according to my AM radio show 92% of people that make resolutions have already quit--I am in the 8%...are you? If you are with me in the 8% what motivation!! If you are not, get back on that horse and keep trying!!
I tried a Pilates exercise program on demand this am-it was terrific but long!-I made it halfway through before my legs were quaking...and then I tried some Yoga but got my ears completely licked! ) Those silly puppies!
Am so excited about future designs-the above is the first of the 2012 Little House Needlework designs--and I love it! I stitched both the angel and one of the snowmen from the 2010 for Christmas gifts for my godmother/aunt...and I really like LHN graphs and designs! So here's the first one due in within the next few weeks...
Well, hope all of you are doing well...and thank you for your kind words about my last year's challenge--I'm now considering another challenge as I realized how many projects I stitched !!
Take care!! Molly
