I only have a dozen followers on this blog-if you know any stitchers, crafters, or generally cool, hip people, Please forward the link to them and ask if they would join up!

Here is my latest obsession- french knots!  I am painting with french knots.  I have done this before- and really love it, but it got lost in the shuffle when I started painting more- here's a peak at the look I am achieving!

Daisy love!

Another thunderstorm just rolled into town- so wonderful! I love the sound of the rain, the thunder, and the way the air cools- perfectly relaxing.

Here is another watercolor for consideration- maybe a cross stitch chart?

Studio Day!

I am getting into the studio with lots of ideas and energy finally!  Today was a day to freshen up the space- creativity will start tomorrow!

Architectural elements?

I have always loved architecture.  I have a series of drawings done with powdered graphite and lindseed oil done on mylar that translate beautifully into a needlework piece- but I need feedback- what do you think?
Please post a link to your Facebook page or recommend to friends so I can grow my reach with this blog and with the website!  Thanks!

I am thinking of creating a series of small pieces- each one full color and with flowers- that could be stitched quickly.  This is a painting that may make the cut- what do you all think?

Please pass on this blog address to friends who may be interested in cross stitch- I need to build a following!

New approach to blogging- again!

It's funny how everything happens for a reason, mostly.  I have run in many small circles (and some big) trying to set up a perfect means of communication with the crafting world, and have finally decided that blogspot is the best method for me.

So, here we go!  Sorry for all of the confusion, but I promise, if you subscribe to this blog, you will not be disappointed, redirected, misguided, or overwhelmed with posts!  Just the occasional image, thought or update from little me!
