Some of my first stitches

These are some of the very first stitches I ever created. Minus the ones i did as gifts and ornaments for exchanges ect. I will try to remember best as I can what the patterns are and where they came from . All of these were stitched on 14ct Aida I had not yet graduated to evenweave. That only happend in 2018 LOL

These were the sweetest stitches From Cross Stitch Country magazine, sadly no longer in publication, I adored this magazine I love anything country and vintage and these were a sweet fun stitch
They were stitched in 2004 I sometimes added the date , sometimes not LOL




These were stitched at the request of my Mother
Our kitchen was country themed, Apples, Roosters Plaid and Check and these i believe came from a Stoney Creek book, I still have it , just have to hunt it down,
I have yet to fully finish them but i am seeing some Priscilla-fied fun in my future.






And these Oh these were such a labor of love
They were from I believe Cross Stitch Magazine
Again it is no longer in publication so I can not remember the issue there were 3 but the I only did these 2  there is a gingerbread man and i am going to finish him at some point and the first time using metallic floss eek


This one did not go with the set it was a free chart from DMC that you could get hanging in the cross stitch section and  thought it would fit in well with the others
My idea was and still is a quilted wall hanging I have the vision just need to get the new sewing machine to achive it 

And this little beauty
I love bears and this one was the perfect fit 
I can not remember who this is by I know it came as a leaflet beyond that I can not remember
But it was a fun and enjoyable stitch
and someday will hang in my bedroom above my sewing machine
