A little bit of wimsey...

Watch for these little Gnomes when you are visiting Millcreek Gardens. Joy and I were asked to paint them anyway that we wanted. We could have gone really crazy, but chose to use the garden theme when painting them. Now you will find them peeking out among the flowers in the garden center to add a bit of Wimsey...

It is that time of year again....

Once the kids go to school we change things up a bit, or am I just hoping for cooler weather? Either way - I love putting out the fall decorations!

The fireplace looks awesome decorated with the vintage medicine bottles.

Because of the sun my pictures are a little fuzzy, but you get the idea....

I love the colors of fall.

We have some fun owl bracelets this year,

and more of the popular spider earrings!

Pretty in purple...

Last year our favorite color was turquoise, this year it is purple....

This is Glendon Place - Plum Pudding

She is the beautiful Mirabilia - The Peony Garden

and this is Gem Show 3 by Courtney Collection.

Past and Present...

It has been done for quite a while, and now it is officially framed and on display.... Past and Present by Rosewood Manor. We changed the background color to summer khaki 32 count, but still used the DMC floss that the designer chose. Be sure to check her web site for a couple of minor corrections to her graph before you stitch this piece. It was very fun to do with it's color changes and different stitches.

Mirabilia Santa.....

Wendy stitched this up in a flash, she is so quick. Isn't he wonderful! Not very large, only about 7 x 10. Lots of vibrant color, beads and details. We are lucky to have such great stitchers working at the shop.

Old Glory...

Lori Latey stitched the beautiful Old Glory by Rosewood Manor. She stitched it on Heroic 32 count fabric following the thread list. I wish that I had taken the pictures before glassing it, but I wanted to show you the finished work anyway. Thanks for letting us frame it for you Lori - it turned out great!

Every girl loves it.....

We can't resist..every time our cute salesman comes in we have to buy bracelets! We have a selection of some of our favorites, and they are a great price.
