Four Seasons

I stitched these in 2003. Designed by Anne Van Wagner Young, from Leasure Art book#174. It has two sets of cross stitch pattern and one set of needle roll pattern.  This is a second set of the four seasons and I just have framed.

Old North Bridge

 I stitched this project in 2003. Designed by Jean Lanning from Art Venture. It’s 39^th frame job done by my son. Size is 21.5” x 17.5”.

5 jam pots are in original design, but I cut a fabric little short by mistake. I have done only four instead five. What a shame. I don’t remember what was the 5^th jam pot. It was done in 2003 and just now framed.

Baby Pink (819, 818, 776 & 3326)

Designed by Heart Steps, I stitched this twice, but changed colours. One for baby blue in 2003 and one for baby pink in 2005. I also changed the hair to dark brown, as usual. They both turned out pretty good. I like them both. Both were given away as gifts, blue for my friend, and pink for the Reverend of my church.

Original Design

Simply Sunflowers

Designed by Paula Vaughan. I finished this in Jan/2003.I had a chance to go to Hong Kong in 2004 to visit my sister, who just moved from England to Hong Kong.I took this project with me to give to her family.

Welcome Frinds

I saw someone else had done this piece, and I wanted to do it for myself.Special thanks to Yoon-Hye.

Jesus in the Garden

I stitched this project, designed by Carol Emer, twice.I gave the first one to my parents.

This is the second piece, which I stitched in 2003, with some colour changes, red to green and green to purple.

It turned out Ok. I really enjoyed changing the colours.

I gave this one to my younger sister.

12 Days of Christmas Wreath

Twelve days of Christmas designed by Robin Clark. I finished this wreath Dec/2003 for my daughter.

The Wedding

I stitched this one in June 2000, for my daughter.
I displayed The Bride and The Wedding at her wedding reception. I got lots of comments

I stitched the second one in June/2003. I changed the colours again to purple.

Basketful of Ornaments

I enjoyed stitching the Christmas ornaments from all different books in 2003, but they were lying around for a year before being sewn together.
I gave them all to my daughter for her Christmas tree, but somehow she gave them away to her co-workers as small gifts.

The Bride

I stitched The Bride by Lavender & Lace four times
with some colour changes.

This is the first one I stitched in 1996 for my daughter.
This is the second one I stitched in July/2003.
I stitched this on black aida with some colour changes, yellow flowers and green leaves. It turned out so pretty. I was so pleased.
The third time I stitched The Bride was in Jan/2004,
with purple flowers in mirror direction. I stitched this one for my niece’s wedding gift.
The fourth one is a pink version I stitched in Sep/2004.
It hasn’t been framed yet. It is just sitting in my closet. It will be for one of my three nieces, which means I still have to stitch two more, but my eyes are not getting better.

Two Pouches

Designs are from a needlepoint book that I borrowed from the library. I stitched these in 2003 and have made them into pouches for home decoration.
