Dear
Heart
by
Shepherd's Bush
This is a DMC kit published
by Shepherd's Bush. The kit came with a hand-painted mat. This will
be framed up as birthday present for my sister, Brenda. Such a dear
to stitch!

Waterlilies
by
Heartland House Designs
This is an
adaptation from a Frank Lloyd Wright design. Both my sister,
Vanessa and I love FLW designs. I have done a piece for her
before. She stitched a few herself. As for her wedding piece, I
couldn't find anything appropriate and decided to add to this
design instead. The verse is "A Promise, To Love and Be
Loved". This was inspired recently from a movie I
watched "Moulin Rouge". I love this verse from the
movie " The greatest thing in life is to learn to love and
be loved in return." I hope one day I will achieve both.

Berry
Basket Sampler
by
Ewe & Eye & Friends
This is a
freebie design. Instead of the original vertical design, I switched
it to a landscape view which I can make this into a needle case. The
piece is stitched on 28ct rose linen. The border is done using NN
Mulled Wine #126. The letters are done using Gumnut Yarns 'Jewels'.
My initial is done using NN Wooly Thyme #1411 while my exchange
pal's initial is done using Silk n' Colors Frosted Auburn SNC 023.
This is my exchange gift to Adana for the 2001 VMS Retreat.

The
Red, White and Blue
by
JBW Designs
This is a
limited edition kit published earlier this year. DMC
flosses were used. The little tuck-away pillow came with the kit.
The fabric is 28ct French Country linen. This is a quickie, I got it
done in one seating.

Sweet
Liberty
by
Lizzie Kate
This is a
limited edition kit published in 2000. I do not have all the original
overdyed. So these are my substitutions. The worlds are stitched
using NN Independence Day. Watermelon is stitched using NN Kris
Kringle. And the flag is stitched using WDW Bayberry and GA
Raspberry Parfait.

Freedom Zipper
by
Bent Creek
Time again for some
patriotic design stitching. I really like this little one. It is primitive.
I got a little bore while working on the white strip of the flag. As you
can see, I used long stitch instead. This will make an adorable pillow.
