New Stitcher's Revolution Patterns for the NEW YEAR!

Hello all!
It is has been quiet here on the blog for a while, but how that the holidays are over I can get back to some business. First we have NEW Stitcher's Revolution patterns to talk about!

SR15 Movie Munchies


SR16 Tiny Tot Designs


SR17 Urban Garden

SR18 Animated Fruity Fun

We also have new 5", 7" and 10" plastic hoops available on the website!
We have Napkins in stock on the website too-these are new item for us--let me know what you think of them. We often think about getting a baby bib, but I go round and round about if it was already assembled and quilted would you want to see the stitching on the back? Should we offer them unfinished? Just can't decide. I love the new Tiny Tot pattern, and so many of those would go great on a baby bib. How do you all do it? Have you ever stitched on one before? How did it turn out?

Off to finish up our new catalog--they should be ready to ship by Feb 1st. I will keep you all posted when they are done! More soon!

A VERY Talented Customer

Have I mentioned lately that I LOVE my job? Well I do. Especially on days like today.


We received this beautiful hand painted card (by our stitcher Ada's daughter) along with some pictures of Ada and her award winning quilt.



She won two ribbons for her quilt. I have never been more proud to see our pattern stitched up. It is one of my goals to eventually get one of these accomplished, but I am certain it will take me a few years. Ada--you have inspired me to at least get it started before the new year! Your quilt turned out so lovely! Job well done!

Happy Stitching to all our customers--keep all the good work coming!

Lithuanian Stitch Artist Severija Inčirauskaitė-Kriaunevičienė



Severija Inčirauskaitė-Kriaunevičienė is an artist that I do not know much about (mostly because of the language barrier), but that is what I love about art. I don't need to read much on her website to appreciate and look at her work. I hope you will take a look. Her stuff if incredibly unique and interesting.








See many many more on her website.
Hope you all enjoyed seeing her work as much as I did!
Happy Stitching All!
