{ Crossing Over }

 

I have exciting news to share with everyone who loves needlework!

as most of you know, I love anything having to do with needle and thread,

wool,

stitching,

and working with my hands...

 

"The Giving Sisters" (C)Notforgotten Farm

 

I had recently asked the members of my stitching forum,

 SAMPLERMAKERS

if anyone there did needlepoint ~ and they did!

 

I haven't picked up a needlepoint canvas in over 30 years...but

I can't seem to get it out of my mind lately.

so as I was dreaming about it, I came to this conclusion:

why not offer my cross stitch designs & punch needle designs

...to those that love to needlepoint??

I think my folky, primsical designs would translate well, don't you?

well....

 



I am happy to announce ~

that very soon you will be able to do just that...

imagine stitching my

Eke & Zeke below in wool threads...

or the Giving Sisters, design shown above - done in petit point??

oh my.

 

 

 

AND

since I will be 'crossing over' so-to-speak,

I am now carrying ALL COLORS of DMC Perle Cotton #3 and

ALL COLORS of Waverly Needlepoint Wool Yarn in the shop here at the farm!

....that's right!

Peter is rearranging the shop as we speak to accomodate the racks and racks

(and racks!)

of fibers for needlepoint ~

 

I have some blank canvases for those that like to work your needlepoint from charts
(which my designs will be available for) 

but will be bringing more into the shop ~

along with handpainted canvases as well...

and

SPEAKING of hand painted canvases,

It is 'in the works' for my folk art and needlework designs to be adapted onto canvas ~

soon to be available from a wonderful company that specializes in painting needlepoint canvases.

 

oh I'm just so excited!

Please let me know your thoughts and comments about this...

and I'll take pictures of the shop as soon as it gets back to 'normal' :)))
