Happy Mother's Day

Hey, Friends!

I hope your weekend is lovely, and that your Mother’s Day is perfect.

Thanks, Graphics Fairy!

I have to admit, I haven’t been so blown away by the most recent BBD Loose Feathers chart, Mary Ann Blackburn.  I did like the box cover piece, but the main, featured design wasn’t blowing me away… until I saw it stitched up by Joan at the Stitching Squad.  Have a look to see if you like it more, too?

Edited to say that a dear stitcher friend has offered the pattern to me.  Thank you!
One design that I do love is The Busy Needle by Little House Needleworks.  I looked to see if I could find any trace of it on Brenda’s blog, and this is what I found:

I have had email and phone calls on an old design I did for my LNS years back called "The Busy Needle".  It is not available for distribution.  If you own a copy, would you please pay it forward to those who wish to stitch it?  Making copies is not acceptable since the material is copyright protected.
Happy Stitching,
Diane

I believe it was one of the “Traveling Patterns” that went by, or was started by, It’s DaffyCat.  If you know who is stitching it now, would you point me in that direction so I can follow it?  Or contact me if you have one that you would consider loaning or swapping?

I’ve been stitching away on what was to be Mom’s Mother’s Day gift… Didn’t start soon enough, so it will have to be her birthday gift.  But before I started that, I did finish the second Birds of a Feather Santa – Red this time.  Next up – but I am going to finish stitching that birthday gift first – is the retreat project! 

Thanks for stopping by, today and always.  I love to hear from you!

I'm grateful for Mom!

PeaceëLoveëJoy
and Happy Stitching
