Cornish Needlework Basket: January 2016
http://pixiepinsandneedles.blogspot.com/2016_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 8 January 2016. A Little Further Down the Country Lane Briggs. So , for the lady gathering flowers in her pretty cottage garden , I took out and re stitched her blouse a Primrose yellow , as is quite clear on the Briggs Leaflet . She also has a white bonnet , which will show up more when I fill in the porch . And then , after all I said about saving the best bits to last , I couldn't resist embroidering her little gossiping friend! Along with gardening , I,m finding it is remarkably calming .

Cornish Needlework Basket: Vintage Oast Houses Embroidery Transfer
http://pixiepinsandneedles.blogspot.com/2016/09/vintage-oast-houses-embroidery-transfer.html
Friday, 9 September 2016. Vintage Oast Houses Embroidery Transfer. I found this old embroidery transfer of the Oast houses in Kent and it tugged at my Kentish heart strings and I just had to buy it .but sadly when I came to iron it on to my linen , it didn't work! It seems that it had been used too many times and the ink was used up . So I sat for about two hours going over all the lines with the horrible pink transfer pencil . And then ironed it on . Vintage Oast Houses Crewel Embroidery.

An ongoing tale of my stitching obsession. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. Last weekend was one busy weekend! We decided to go to for a day trip which coincidentally happened to be where my LNS is. so, of course I stopped in. I picked out a counted canvas pattern called Tiptoe Through the Tulips and all of the stuff I needed for it. I love doing these needlepoint designs, but my oh my the supplies for them add up quickly. As you can see, I was so happy to get this that I started it as soon as I got home. It's b...

An ongoing tale of my stitching obsession. Thursday, April 23, 2015. It's been awhile, I know. I have been severely neglecting my blog and for the most part stitching in general. Recently, I picked up a small little ornament that I was working on before Christmas and I enjoyed placing the simple Xs on this simple little design and it's all sort of snowballed since then. I've finished this cute little Prairie Schooler design a couple of weeks ago. Just Cross Stitch Christmas Issue 2010. The leaves are act...
