| Charland Designs - Strawberry Fields |
Long time blog friends know that I used to own a needlework shop in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin in the late 1980s-mid 1990s. My first love has always been needlework.
I stitched this sampler by Charland Designs in the 1990s. I love the counted thread stitches in this one, and Charland was at the forefront of the trend to add charms and embellishments to her pieces. It now hangs in my sewing studio, along with a few other favorite pieces. This design is called "Strawberry Fields".
I really love that my current quilt making projects incorporate needlework, but I'm also committing to creating some new needlework projects this year. I may even make a design or two available for you to stitch, too! (If that's something you enjoy doing as much as I do.)
Today, though, I'll be working on commissions. I'll share them with you as I finish them so you can see what I've been doing. What are you working on?
