dotties x stitches

Friday, August 13, 2010

My BF's daughter and grand-daughter are coming up from Florida for a joint birthday party and I'm invited so I just had to make something for them. The Amber bookmark is for her daughter and the Ela pillow cover is for her grand-daughter. No, I did not make the fabric around the pillow - it came that way. I x-stitch but do not really sew that much anymore. My BF says both of them will really appreciate something made special for them.

MY FAVORITE ON-LINE SITES

I have several sites that I just love to look at and admire. My newest one is:

www.countrygardenstitchery.com - Very nice patterns especially for those that like that"country" look.

http://www.thesilverneedle.com/ - I can't say enought about this fantasic on-line ordering site. When I got my first order (in only 3 days no less) my leaflets were wrapped in a beautiful tissue paper and then there were wrapped jelly belly jelly beans inside for my enjoyment. This was the very best on line ordering experience yet.

www.etsy.com/shop/TemptingTangles - Beautiful & orignal designs by a fantastic artist. You've got to visit her site to appreciate the original designs.

newbeehivexs.com - cute turtles and frogs for those who love the "little guys" and several cute stitcher sayings.

http://www.lindajeannejenkins.com/ - This site is great for greeting cards and the cards even include a thin plastic film piece to cover the stitching and preserve it. Never saw that in a card kit before. Great Idea. Designs are by Linda Jeane Jenkins

http://www.cyberstitchers.com/Home.asp - great freebies, especially bookmarks and conversion charts for DMC, Anchor, etc.

http://www.christiancrossstitch.com/ - This is the most beautiful FREE SITE for gorgeous christian patterns. Will also direct you to another FREE SITE. I can honestly say I can't believe these patterns are free.

http://www.kustomkrafts.net/ - gorgeous patterns - some intricate. If you like wolves you'll love this site. Also a Yahoo Group Site and SAL's going on

Here's a beautiful site for a beautiful freebie "His Name Is Jesus" and many more "Joyful Expression" patterns available. http://www.joyfulexpressions.us/
