Inspiration by Rosewood
Manor This 30 page design was inspired from a beautiful quilt made by Janet Locey of San Juan Bautista, CA. Janet found a photo of a circa 1800 quilt and was inspired to make on of her own. This chart was name Inspiration because the original design inspired many quilters and stitchers. "Inspiration" is a wonderful pattern to stitch as an heirloom piece for many generations to enjoy. |

Raise the Roof "Crabby
July - September" The Crabby series gives you a somewhat demented (but hilarious) alternative to the regular "happy" monthly series'. These charts are stitched on 32 ct Vintage Pearled Barley by Lakeside Linens and they can be stitched separately or all together for one big fabulous year sampler. |

Passione Ricamo
"Queen of the Fairies" You really don't have to ask why this fairy has been named "Queen of the Fairies". Her magnificent dress, beautiful wings, and gorgeous crown says it all. "Queen of the Fairies" can be stitched on 30 ct Terracotta Linen by Passione Ricamo or 28 ct Jobelan "Fallen Leaves" or "Chestnut" by Polstitches and uses DMC floss, Rainbow Gallery Petite Treasure Braid, and Mill Hill beads. |
