Stitchy Goodness

I've been on a cross stitch craze lately. I did this gnome alphabet sampler for AlwaysInspired. The original pattern had two "d's" in it. I took one out. Someone suggested that maybe the gnome had a stuttering problem.


cross stitched gnome alphabet for AlwaysInspired


This pattern wasn't custom made but it should have been. It's a little Pam with a little Lola. I just love the pixel people cross stitch out there. A couple of good places to check out are weelittlestitches and andwabisabi
Little Pam and Lola.


Of course, I could never abandon embroidery or my love for vintage patterns. I made this for my sweet friend Peggy. She has the cutest scotty named Snickers. I just imagine this behavior from that little scamp.

I got the cross stitch abc's in the mail today along with two of the most adorable embroidered onsies! Hamster says thanks Auntie Pam! My FIL will be building a custom frame from reclaimed wood for the gnomes and they will hang in the babies room right away! The hubby loves the gnomes just as much as I do! ;)

Lovelovelove all of those! That gnome sampler is so cute and the scotties are adorable. I've been working on a lot dishtowels lately, all vintage patterns. I think I might be a little addicted.

Love it all! The gnome sampler is so perfect (as is all of your stitching). I LOVE that you found a wee Pam and Lola to stitch - too cute!
