Two more of Marly's wonderful pears
have been added to my collection.
Can you tell I have fallen in love with these pears?
I still have a few to stitch but I do smile
every time I walk by my little basket.

Here is another oldie but goodie. Too tired
to stitch one night, I started looking
back through my magazines and
found this sweet design.
June Pear
stitched on 32ct. coffee-dyed linen
with Victorian Motto
I stitched this one earlier in June and had just
added some purple and lavender thread
from Victorian Motto to my thread collection.
They were the perfect for this
design don't you think?
July Pear
stitched on 32ct coffee-dyed linen
with Victorian Motto and ST
This was the perfect stitch for the July 4th
weekend. I like Marly's original design for
the 1776 but decided to stitch it solid to
match the May pear. With some of the linen
scraps, I do hope to stitch the 1776 in the
red, white and blue colorway to
use as a little bowl filler.
A "bushel" of pears

Ewe & Eye & Friends "Button Basket"
Cross Stitch & Needlework April 1999
Stitched on 40ct linen w/Victorian Motto
Too lazy to get out the sewing machine, I
decided to use my Big Kick. I used my oval
dies to cut the wool felt and the stitching
to finish this little oval pin cushion.

Well...I was all ready to stitch this and Nan
at Threadwork Primitives offered
this wonderful design.
Oh my goodness....I love this design.
It promptly came in the mail yesterday and I
started last night. I can't wait to add
this one to my bee collection.

As always, thanks for visiting my
little piece of the web.
Hope you have a great stitching day.
