Frederick was named after the town where I was born. I realize that makes absolutely no sense. And, actually, I kind of thought Frederick was a cool name and since it was also the name of the town where I was born, I decided to go with it! Our sampler is stitched on 40-count Pearled Barley from Lakeside Linens using Needlepoint Silks in: 224, 693, 694, 915, 315, 128, 724, 722, 863, 967, 996, 209, 696. The stitch count is 181 wide by 125 high. The stunning frame is from Valley House Primitives. Special thanks, once again, to Joanne Ambrose for stitching Frederick! Chart Price: $10.00

Pears! Now here's a project for you! And, it's not even difficult! Complete instructions are included along with patterns to make three sizes of wool pears and linen pears in 32 and 36 count. Miranda from Weeks Dye Works provided me with beautiful over-dyed wool. I left one wool pear plain, added heart appliqués to another and beaded the tiny one. Use your imagination and decorate your pears any way you'd like. The linen pears are stitched on all three sides using Soie D'Alger in these colors: 3821, 526, 524, 1735, 4132, 1425. I finished all these pears myself, and it really is very easy. The leaves are 2 1/2" rose leaves by Victoria Lynn and are available in your local craft store in packages of 12. Wool colors used are: Chart Price: $8.00
