So glad you’re here! We’re so very excited that you clicked in!
Needlework is my passion as I bet it’s yours. I can disappear into my fabric and threads emerging with a sense of calm. I’ve lost many hours of sleep as I tell myself “one more thread” or “I’ll go to bed as soon as I finish this section.” Know what I mean?
Each time I choose something to stitch, to give it life, there is great thought that precedes it. Who is it for? Why is this design the one that gets to speak? What is the story it tells? Why does this particular one grab me?
This is what drives this site. The stories about projects we’re starting, thinking about starting, hoping to buy, in process or recently completed. Your stories about why you chose a particular design. Who is it for? Is there a specific memory? Somewhere you’ve traveled. Just love a specific something (like lighthouses, flowers, etc.)
This is what we are about. The stories behind what we stitch. Along with the stories, we’ll feature the actual chart, fabric, etc. so that others who may be inspired by the shared story can add to their stash.
By the way, the wicked cute welcome wagon is by Mill Hill. It’s actually two different designs. The first is the welcome wagon and the second is the flower basket on the frame. I haven’t stitched this one in particular, but boy do I LOVE the Mill Hill beaded designs. So this one is definitely in my stash. This welcome wagon and frame are available to purchase here as well as many of Mill Hill’s other designs. Each is complete with beads, thread, chart and needles. Frames are additional purchases, but are available here as well.
Thankful you stopped by. Come with us on this journey. Share your stories. We cannot wait to be inspired by you. ~Alice
