New Color-

Confetti Cake is now a thing in linen-each piece will be unique due to the dyeing process.  But what a fun new color to work with.  This color can be ordered in all counts-

Pictured is a 40 count that is up on my Facebook and my Etsy shop right now.  

Italian Custard is an old color on a different trim.  It is now available in Mini Pom Pom.  

This too is available off my Facebook account and Etsy Shop.  A box of this new color is on its way to Hoffman Distributing Company  So your local needlework shop should have this color in by next week.

More colors coming.....Thanks for looking.  Ebeth

New Colors

Been busy in the studio-Here is a sampling of new colors and products available in my Etsy shop and your local needlework shop.


Fairy Wings-a hint of Lilac to enhance your stitching.


1/2" Black Twill Tape to be used in binding, finishing and other wonderful ways.  A great addition to your lovely textile arts.


1/2"' Murky Sea Twill Tape to be used in binding, finishing and other wonderful ways.  Again, a great addition to your lovely textile arts.


Murky Sea Velvet, I cannot wait to use this to finish a project.  It is a soft greyish green color.  I grew up off the coast of Virginia and it has the murky coloring of the sea when a storm is approaching.


Yes-more murky-Murky Sea linen.  It can be dyed in all counts and is available in my etsy shop.

You can pm me on my Facebook page to order any of these new items or any of my other items.  Always listing and dyeing.....I have a couple more new ideas up my sleeve-keep watching....Ebeth

Release of Sampler Motif Pin Cushion

Yes, a new release.  It is in my Etsy Shop and will be in your local needlework shops soon. 

It is stitched on 36 count Aged Saffron using Tarnished Halo Mini Pom Pom by From the Cauldron/Dames of the Needle.  Threads used Queen Bee by Classic Colorworks, Country Redwood and Carriage Black by The Gentle Art and Grasshopper by Weeks Dye Works.

The piece was designed to go in a 5" diameter pedestal.  The one for the model is a repurposed candle holder.  It could fit in a tart tin or turned into a pin wheel cushion.

Stitching and finishing instruction are included with the chart.

I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I did designing it.

Have a wonderful day.

Swan with Flowers Pin Cushion/Frame Weight

Announcing the birth of a new piece.....this lovely piece can double as a Pin Cushion or a Frame Weight depending on how you stuff the piece.  Find the chart and most of the Bits and Bobs to complete this project in my Etsy Shop.  Swan with Flowers stitched on 32 count Aged Saffron.  Threads used: Seaweed Weeks Dye Works, Old Blue Paint The Gentle Art, Country Redwood The Gentle Art, Queen Bee Classic Colorworks, Blackboard The Gentle Art, and Navy Weeks Dye Works.

Finishing Materials Aged Saffron velvet, Rick Rack Lace Tape Burnt Butter, Little Boy Grey Mini Pom Pom all by From the Cauldron/Dames of the Needle.  Quilting fabric of your choice, crushed walnut hulls or wool roving for stuffing and heavy weight iron interfacing.  

Finished piece is 5" x 8".  When filled with crushed walnut hulls the piece can be used as a frame weight.  If filled with wool roving you have a lovely large Pin Cushion.

I must admit I recycled the idea or using Pom Pom and Lace from my friend Tracy at Ink Circles.  Thank you Tracy for the idea.


I hope you enjoy the new piece.  Enjoy and thank you for your support.  Ebeth
