I'm so happy! I just finished stitching the Little Pink House....... by The Prairie Schooler. It is such a sweet stitch, rather than frame it I just put it in a little tuck pillow and I really like the way it turned out. The model was stitched on 14 ct. White Aida using DMC floss. I stitched mine on 14 ct Adia too, but I used a blush pink and DMC #3716 for my pink. I'm especially pleased the proceeds from the sale of this chart benefit the cause to find a cure for breast cancer.....this is so worthwhile.
When I went to the mailbox this evening I got the best surprise. I have been waiting and waiting for the Halloween edition of Just Cross Stitch. I haven't even peeked at it....

heya Mom. You did an awesome job on Little Pink House. I like the little pink tuck pillow as well.
Hi Linda, your pink house stitch looks so pretty and I really love the tuck pillow you used. I can't wait for my JCS issue!! Lucky girl!!
Have a nice night.

I LOVE your pink house - that is adorable! When I could cross stitch, I loved to get a shiny, new magazine and savor each page. I know you enjoyed browsing through it last night. Thanks for sharing the great photo.
Wonderful finish on your pink house! I love it as a little pillow. And are you now going to join me in Halloween stitching??? What a fabulous magazine. I need some Halloween stitching company...
I found the French monogram book here in Holland and could get it for you but it will cost $85 total including postage to the US. I can arrange it for you if you want but it is still costly. Not as bad as the 2nd hand price you found though.

I cannot wait for Halloween! Hope you enjoyed your night with your magazine,

You are the second person today who has said they got their magazine. It looks like a fun edition to look through. Happy stitching.
Your little pink house is just too cute. I love the way you tucked it in with your glass pieces.
I told Heidi, I liked your idea of ironing on the patio.

cute little pink house! yeah for your magazine. that means my favorite season of all is just around the corner!!!!!
Well, I enlarge it and it is just the cutest thing.I I was able to finish outlining one of my blocks last night while watching Millionaire. I love any Trivia show.
This week, I have spent a lot of time on the Fall wall hanging. It is coming along nicely.
The time just flies by when I'm in the studio. I have so many ideas and things I want to try.
Enjoy your evening.
