The online Needlework Show is going to be opening on the 20th, and I'll have 3 new releases. You saw Eulalie Long yesterday, and here's another one...
This one is called Poor Maidens, based on an old Christmas carol...
This is the same frame used for Christmas Tea, by The Family Tree Frame Company. The model was stitched on 40 ct. Vintage Pearled Barley by Lakeside Linens, and calls for Belle Soie silks in Poison Apple, Moss, Attic Tea, Eiffel Tower, Espresso, Angel Blush, and Vanilla Pudding. The stitch count is 132 x 132.
I'll be in Myrtle Beach at the Pals Convention during the online show, but if I can get to a computer, I'd love to browse all the "booths" to see what's new for October! Again, if you'd like to have your shopowner order this or any of my other charts, they'll be posted under Kelmscott Designs on the vendor page.
ETA: It's come to my attention that the above photo is a bit too busy to read the verse, so here's a slightly closer one...
Another gorgeous one Paulette, well done!

I love this one! I can already imagine doing the center portion as a pin pillow. My DH is a church organist and we loved seeing the verse based on the old carol.

You keep cranking out one beautiful new design after another. Enjoy the Pals Convention.

This is a charming, nostalgic piece. I love the colors and the trees.

If you ever feel so moved, you can visit a real Stratham (pronounced just that way) in New Hampshire. It's near the ocean.
