Welcome To Our Patch correction!
Greetings fellow creatives!
Well no designer ever wants this to happen, but there is a mistake on my new pattern NW-90 Welcome To Our Patch! The symbols for DMC colors 743, and 745 are switched! How this happens I will never know, but some kind of gremlin can get in there between designing and downloading. Most of the time we catch I but sometimes they sneak on by! I'm so sorry if this has caused you any inconvenience!
This is the corrected colors and symbols:
Happy stitching!
Annie

Lets get caught up!
A lot has happened in the almost year since I last posted. I lost my beloved on September 16, 2021. I won't go into the details at this time. It is still very devastating to me . It was very sudden and the shock and horror still come back at times with the same rawness as when it first happened, But in this almost year since it happened, I have found my sea legs.
"I am no longer afraid of storms for I am learning to sail my own ship." Louisa May Alcott
Although I missed the fall Needlework Expo, I was eventually able to release all of my patterns and ended up doing pretty well. I made it through the holidays with the help of my amazing kids, and even managed to make it to Nashville Needlework Market in the spring.
Then God gave me a gift, (among others) and my 2 daughters began to cross stitch! They are hooked and we have even started a floss tube together;
I had a new release in June and my daughters and I went to a retreat with Vickie Jennet of Needlework Press, put on by Tomorrows Heirlooms. We had a blast!
Then in July I bought a new house and moved in!I have relocated in Southern Wisconsin to be closer to Lucas and Aidan. Chelsea has moved as well, and we are now 15 minutes apart. I am still getting settled and living out of boxes somewhat, but I love my new house and I feel very safe and comfortable here.
I was also able to release 2 new charts. Here are all of my releases since last fall of 2021:
NW-78 Advice From A Sunflower
NW-79 Pumpkin Folk
NW-80 Bitty Barns 2
NW-81 Blessings Be Thine
NW-82 Gathering Pumpkins
NW-83 Gathering Holly
NW-84 Hop To It!
NW-85 Margaret Robertson 1855
NW-86 1884 Home Sampler
NW-87 Mary Hill 1826
NW-88 Running Bunny Biscornu
NW-89 Bee Sweet
NW-91 Redwork Pears
I think that catches us up. I am now getting ready for Needlework Expo 2022, which will be at the end of August. I'm excited for my new releases, I hope you are too!

Fun with Grandkids at the Beach!
Last Saturday we went to the beach with a bunch of our kids and grandkids. It was so much fun! This is a wonderful white sandy beach in Racine on Lake Michigan.
The girls have never been to the beach before, and when they first got there they literally squealed with delight! The joy was palpable!
Featured in the video are Nellie, Mei, Hideko and Mase!
I hope you find some great moments with friends and family before summer is gone!
Happy Stitching!
XOXO

Nose to the Grindstone!
I am continuing to work away on my releases for Needlework Expo. A new development has happened that has helped me out immensely! My husband has begun to do all my photography! He is semi-retired now and I think he saw me struggling(and probably complaining) to get through my photo shoot, and he decided to take pity on me. He is actually an amazing photographer and I couldn't be happier with his work! So that is a huge load off because that is my least favorite aspect of what I do. I just don't have the patience for it and I can't seem to follow the basic rules of photography! LOL!
I will be releasing all my sneak peeks next week!
I am continuing to work on my civil war quilt. I started the first block with the needle turn method and I'm finding it just too tedious for this quilt. I think needle turn is great for large uncomplicated pieces, but this quilt just has too many corners and curves. So the next block I plan to do more prep work. I just broke down and ordered the Appliquick tools, I'm excited to see how they work.
I also prepped 2 more blocks for my Maggie Bonanami quilt called Village green. I have the center block and block 2 done. I prepped blocks 3 and 4, and Im hoping to get block 5 prepped today. Once I get all of them appliqued I will only have the borders left! I have a goal to get this done by October 1 so I can have it out for the fall before my Christmas decor comes out.
I finally decided which Blackbird quilt to make. I am going to do A Little Flower. This was a pamphlet pattern from 2016? I think? Anyhow I saw Kay Harmon's version and I just about died! LOL! So I started that too!
So many projects so little time! hahaha!
Happy stitching!
XOXO,
Annie
