A little more on Houses
I am really enjoying working on this! I wish I had more time to do so. I have 2 new designs coming out in April, hopefully in time for the Online Needlework Show. One is complete and just needs the rest of the charting done, and the other I am still stitching~yikes! It has a hemstitch border, and I haven't even gotten to that point yet! But its hard because as some other bloggers put it, I am "jonesing" for Hohrh! I just want this one finished and on my wall right now!!(can you hear the whine!) hehe!
My kids are home on spring break this week, which is really nice on the one hand, they sleep in! Also they are getting older and I know how much I'm going to miss them when they all go their separate ways. So I try to spend as much time with them as possible while still getting all of my work done. So far we have had all cold and wet weather. So much for getting out and doing some yard work this week!

My progress on the new Hawk Run Hollow!
$5.00 Doll Pattern Sale on Etsy! Plus a bonus!
I am having a pattern sale on Etsy for my doll patterns-just $5.00 each while supplies last. And if you buy 3 or more patterns you get a free set of 10 vintage white buttons for your dollmaking. These buttons are very old and grungy-perfect for primitive dolls! They are a mix of steel,plastic, shank, bone, and mother of pearl. All of them are guaranteed old!
The button sets are also sold separately on my website.

Yes, I'm a serial starter!
And the only thing I ever really seem to finish are my pattern models. *sigh*! But it is fun!! And someday...
Here is my latest start. It is a Colonial Tea Cozy from an old issue of Sampler and Antique Needlework Quarterly.(Vol. 16 to be exact)Isn't it cute? I really want to finish this one because it will look so cute on my teapot, sitting on my china cabinet, don't you think?
And to answer Barbara's question about the fiber and fabric for my little Heart Biscornu I showed in my last post, the fabric is 32ct. Country French linen, and the fiber is from Vickie Clayton, and it is called Black Cherry.
