All My Needlework Finishes - WELL, all that I can remember anyway...

I decided to post all my stitching finishes






My latest were the 3 HAED designs that I had framed by Jill Rensel in Utah in June....I love them all...QS Gwenevere by Linda Ravenscroft, Sugar Plum Fairy by Myrea Pettit and Sylph by Brigid Ashwood



Ashes of Rose - by Fancy Works anf Fantasies.  This piece took a LONG time to finish, mainly because I put it away for about 10 years and then dragged it out again to finish it around 2006


This one was a fast stitch and I can't remember even what it was called or where the pattern came from...I think it was a kit though as it came with the mat....it's still not framed..


Dreamin by Lanarte...was one of my favorites for quite awhile (before I discovered HAED)


"Her Eyes" - can't remember the name of the company I got the chart from....

Lavender and Lace - Nantucket Rose - Loved the design, hate the framing job..too cut off at the side ...I should have complained when I picked it up, but I didn't




Two more Lavender and Lace designs - framed myself and I'm considering having them re-framed with mats etc..


Tea Party - From an Old "Just Cross Stitch" magazine




These 3 I stitched around 1984...2 from a chartbook called "Good 'N Country" and I can't remember the name of the 3rd

Stay tuned for another entry where I show you the quilts I made.  Sadly I haven't quilted now for about 10 years, but I sure loved it while I was doing it and I have enough fabric stash to probably make 100 more...

Great stitching! All large ones too and a range of styles. You could easily have Nantucket Rose rematted even within the same frame and it'd be fine.

That's a good idea Jo....I do love the frame....

I just realized I had comments on my posts. I had it set wrong so they weren't coming up...oops....so I just saw this now...
