A red door, new silks, and spring stash
Hello friends! Just thought I'd share a few things from my stitching world with you today.
I am so excited that I finished the stitches in the house part of my Home of a Needleworker. I decided to "paint" my door red for a little punch and I really love it.
I am also really quite happy about my decision to start collecting the Belle Soie silks. They are so soft and beautiful... I received the first three this month from eHandcrafts. If you've been considering these, go for it!
Vonna inspired me to pick up this cutie, although I probably won't stitch it until next Easter:
And I also fell for the new Ericha Michaels "Random Thoughts of Spring." It is pictured next to the prettiest silkweaver fabric, a gorgeous combination of turquoise and green with a bit of blue. I have not been super-thrilled with my silkweaver fabric of the month, but this one really knocked my socks off. Trouble is, I have no idea what to do with it! Size is 18 x18 and it is a 32 ct. Jobelan. Any ideas for what I could stitch on it?

Your red door is 'kickin' as the kids say. ;)
Those silks seem luscious and the fabric, wow! Amazing!
Random Thoughts of Spring is a lovely design.
Have a great weekend, Rachel!
Those silks are beautiful, I only have one but I NEED more, lol.
That fabric is beautiful, cant wait to see what you decide to stitch on it.
Barbara, you are right! I guess I just want to find the perfect thing.
Thanks everyone for you nice comments and stopping by. :)
Those silks look beautiful.
I ordered the Belle Soie silks to stitch Tanya's Irish coffee freebie... can't wait for them to arrive...
Isn't Easter Parade just the most gorgeous thing! I can't wait to start on mine... :-)
Another 'Easter Parade' fan!!! If you start today you can have it finished by Easter.(lol) It is so addictive. I hope to show mine later this week.
Have a good week.
