About Me

My photo
I have two main hobbies, one is cross-stitching and the other is dollshouse miniatures. I have a 6ft dollshouse called La Maison de Reves. I took up cross stitching so i could stitch cushions/rugs etc for my dh, but cross stitching developed into a passion and a joy....well as long as Rene's froggies leave me alone...lol Now my biggest problem is finding time!!

For Xander and Ryan


I am dying to learn how to stitch hardanger so I can kit up some designs I have from Victorias Sampler.

My daughter chose Heirloom Birth Sampler for my grandsons birth sampler. Needless to say Ryan is now 6mths old and I have not even started kitting it yet. I stitched him a couple of Tigger designs instead to adorn his nursery until such time as I found the courage to tackle hardanger. Jemma could have picked an easier pattern...lol

I am currently stitching Summer Dragon by Dragon Dreams for my other grandson Xander who is now 9mths old. I am hoping it will be finished in time for his 1st birthday. NO hardanger is sight with this design!

    You better get started kitting up the Sampler LOL Since my arm was twisted I will start the class soon. I was thinking of doing the same sampler for my new Grand daughter.

    That's a great sampler. It's such a lovely pattern and will look great when finished.
