Fall Needlework Market is almost here! Many new releases are pre-order and will ship as soon as the charts arrive from the designers. I will keep this page updated after the market to let you know what charts have arrived and what is shipping. Please check your order for accuracy before completing your purchase. Due to large volumes this time of year I will not be able to combine orders. I appreciate your understanding! Happy Stitching! ~Michelle

From Brenda:

The Coleus and the Pear - inspired by an antique from my collection. I was immediately drawn to the nontraditional shape of the sampler, long and narrow and the alphabet worked in one long row.... only 3 7/8" wide! The antique was worked on canvas with wool. No signature, no date. I took some liberties with this piece, using green floss for the flower stems, adjusted the bow, and added a 2nd blue to the piece. So, not a true reproduction, but no less, inspired by an antique piece of needlework
