I'm pretty much in love with the result! **This pattern is free and for personal use only.** Supplies: Scottish Thistle Cross Stitch Pattern DMC 208, 209, 3345, 3347, C550, ... Read More

Mind the Gap London Underground Felt Ornament

Mind the Gap London Underground Felt Ornament

I just can't get enough of London and I'm lucky that I get to spend so much time there. There are so many iconic things about London, but one of my favourites is the Underground. It's so well-run and I never get tired of that polite voice coming over the speaker to tell us to mind the gap. I wanted a piece of London on our Christmas Tree and made this fun Mind the Gap London Underground Felt Ornament to remind me of London when I'm not there. This post contains affiliate ... Read More

Lest We Forget Poppy Cross Stitch Pattern

Lest We Forget Poppy Cross Stitch Pattern

Remembrance Day is celebrated on 11 November by most Commonwealth Nations to remember members of the military who have died in conflict. It is celebrated on this particular date because it was the end of hostilities in World War I. The poppy became the symbol of Remembrance Day (it is sometimes referred to as Poppy Day) due to the poem In Flanders Fields--poppies bloomed across the battlefields and symbolized the blood spilled. We're celebrating the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI this year ... Read More

This scissors holder is a fun way to keep them contained this holiday season.

Puffy Hexagon Pincushions

Puffy Hexagon Pincushions

I swore that I wasn't going to be constantly running around with activities, but with four kids it was pretty much inevitable. My girls have various after-school activities--gymnastics and swimming are weekly and then there's the less frequent special events. I love that they're able to do them, but I honestly get bored waiting sometimes. I usually bring along a bag of stitching projects to work on and I have found that I really enjoy (and am protective of) this stitching time. I was getting ... Read More
