I'm so disappointed!

This is my newest design called May Baskets, which I have designed in beautiful cottagey colors. I have tried for a week to get it up on my blog as a PDF file, but to no avail. Finally after hours of frustration, I have finally figured out the problem. My charting software will not export the chart properly unless I upgrade itto professional. I have already planned to do that, but with graduations, recitals, school plays, class trips, and the usual amount of sports fees etc. along with a dismal spring for my doll pattern business, I cannot afford the upgrade right now.
I have stitched the major motifs, in order to be sure they were charted correctly. I am using 2 strands of DMC on 32 count antique white linen from Zweigart. I will add a WIP as soon as I can, but I wanted to get the chart on here for you before May was over! LOL!

Spring Sampler WIP

I'm still plugging away, hope to have this one finished this week.

Trip to my LNS

Boy did I have fun buying Little House and Country Cottage charts!These two are my favorites these days, but I am especially partial to CC. I just love that cottage look!
Here's my list from above, starting at the top left:
Flowershop~CC
Ladybugs and Bumblebees~CC
Fruit Thread pack~Watermelon~ LHN
A Rose in Morning~LHN
Blossoms and Blackbirds~LHN
I also bought the rest of what I neede to get "A Place We Call Home" kitted up. I am almost done with Spring Sampler, so I think I will do this one next. I LOVE the colors!

A finish and a WIP!

Here is LHN berries design finished into a needlbook!
And here is my start on the LHN/ crescent colors belle soie chartpack. I am loving these silks they are wonderful! So soft and pretty!

O.K. so this is supposed to be a stitching blog!

Here is a pic of the exchange I received from Jenny in the Legacy Quaker Quarterly Exchange. Isn't it cool! Thanks Jenny!
