Where Has The Summer Gone?

I can't believe it has been a whole month since my last post! Where has the summer gone? It seems like it was just spring and now August is already half way gone.  I have been busy though and have failed to add my latest designs to this blog.

Since my little Christmas in July Trio, I have added my "Read Me A Story" design.  I found this verse somewhere....wish I could remember where.  When I see or hear a sweet verse I write it in a little notebook I keep to use later.  Some get used right away some stay in the little notebook for a while until some inspiration hits me.

I chose these colors so it could go into any child's bedroom, boy or girl.  You could change the colors to fit your needs...or even turn it into a wall hanging.  Grandmas, this is a good stitch for your favorite grandchildren...of course they are all favorite grandchildren.

Coming soon...they release to the distibutors next friday... my mini sampler stocking.  It is small and will be a nice addition to your ornament collection.

I left the toe area open so you could add initials or the year.  I also added the stocking template to the design pattern.  It was a lesson in patience for me to get my design inside of my stocking template but after several tweaks I finally got it balanced and a template that resembled a stocking! It is a flat finish and I used mini pom pom trim by Lady Dot Creates.

Finally to say so long to summer...I'm working on harvest and Christmas now, "The Flower Gatherer" is my final for this season.


I just love this saying...I think it is so true and wanted to use it on something. So my pretty little flower gathering lady got it. 

 As you know I have been one of the designers for Inspired Sampler Club from the Inspired Needle.  My second design called "Thankful Hearts" will be released soon.  I believe it is scheduled for an end of August release.  It was designed with the Harvest season in mind.  If you are interested in joining the club, contact Cathy at the Inspired Needle for more information.  You can still join and I think you can get all the club projects.  I will let Cathy release a photo first but will be back with more details later....

One last thing for shop owners... Norden Crafts is running a 10% off sale on all Abby Rose Designs patterns that they have already stocked.  Supplies are limited and only apply what is in their inventory.  There are quite a few of early Abby Rose Designs patterns available.

Enjoy the rest of your summer!

  1. I love the Flower Gatherer and the saying but why does it say 'resoures' on the model?
