Today as I was checking out my favorite online needlework stores I discovered new charts by Little House Needleworks. I really like both of them! She designs such sweet little samplers that they are hard for me to pass up! The nice thing is that they are less expensive than many new designs and they use plain old (cheap) DMC, and the occasional overdyed floss. I can't wait now to get started on The Bookshelf! As soon as I finish my Friendship project--I am going to put in my first stitches. I have also been thinking of starting a needlework accessory. I have been looking at too many online photo albums and I see so many lovely little pincushions and needlecases, etc. I am thinking of starting This Too Shall Pass. I have been "studying" the instructions, and I think I might be able to handle it!! But first things first--I have to finish my exchange project...
