My start is Land of the Free by Blackbird designs. This little gem is in the current cross stitch and needlework magazine. I am using 32 ct vintage exampler linen and I didn't have all of the belle soie silk so I made my own substitutions using GA and CC fibers. It's a fast stitch. I really love it.
Last but not least is my TUSAL for this month. You can see all the pinks and greens from Le Jardin. Thanks for the concern about the tornado's that passed through my state. I live near the Cape so we only had severe thunder storms. The western part of the state was hit with the tornado's. My heart goes out to the folks that lost loved ones and to all who lost their homes.
Until next time...Happy Stitching! Deborah

Gorgeous finish!!!!! I like it as is as well~~~ I've never seen their designs before, thanks for introducing me to a new designer~
So beautiful finish. And I agree with you - I like it better without the words too.
Lovely new start of the Land of the free...and those scissors are stunning too.
Stunning really nice. Good start on the BBD design x
Le Jardin is fabulous and a sampler doesn't always need words....
I do love BBD, must have a look for the magazine in the UK:))
Sorry to hear about your blogger issues, same here so your not alone:))
Your pieces are beautiful. Your finish of the Praiseworthy Stitches is so much more gorgeous that the flyer. And I just love 'Besty'. She may be on my short list of must haves.
I love both of your pieces, but the finish looks really wonderful.
Oh I really like that Jardin piece! So pretty! Why have I never seen this one before? Nice! Love your new start too! It's so pretty! I'm glad you weren't anywhere close to the tornadoes. It's so scary. I thought I wouldn't have to worry about tornadoes if I lived on the east coast. I guess I was wrong.
Beautiful finish!! I love your BBD WIP, too. I want to do that one--I would love to do at least ONE patriotic piece per year. I always plan to have more but never quite get there.
Enjoy your week!
Hi Deborah!
It was 88 here yesterday! Boy do I miss New England. I prefer the sweatshirt weather.
Your stitching is so beautiful and man you are fast.
I need to hunt down that magazine for the BBD design :)
Happy Sunday!
Your Jardin sampler is so pretty. Congrats on your finish.
Jardin is gorgeous! I love the colors in that one. The BBD piece is lovely too - I MUST find that magazine!
Beautiful finish and a cute start!
Wonderful finish. Love the WIP especially the patriotic scissors.

Beautiful work!
I have the BBD on my to do list. I love your subs! :)
La Jardin looks great and I think it's perfect on its own without the words. I have Land of the Free in my "to do" pile and hope to get the threads pulled today. I'll be making substitutions as well since I don't have the silks. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations on your finish! I like it how it is too. Your needle has been busy!
LJdL is beautiful! And I love your BBD start...I think I'm going to have to get that issue after all :)
Congrats on a so-pretty finish! Your new start is also wonderful.
Very pretty ORTs, Deborah
La Jardin is beautiful! Love the BBD you started! Love those scissors too!
Love your finish...very pretty! Kudos on starting the BBD... coming along very nicely!
happy stitching....
Beautiful finish!
Love the BD piece. I just got the magazine yesterday and this will go on my "need to stitch" list.
Have a good week
Gorgeous finish Deborah! Congrats :o)
I'm glad to hear you are okay.
That is a beautiful finish, I don't think it needs any words added.
Beautiful stitching and I love the patriotic scissors and the fob that is attached.
A lovely piece Deborah. I think it looks great as it is. I love the matching scissors on your new start!

Beautiful finish and I love that BBD piece - I'm going to have to see if I can get my hands on that magazine!
Everything looks lovely Deborah. I'm glad you weren't hurt, and have said prayers for those who were hurt, or even had damage from the storms. Love the colors in Jardin. The people look so tiny!
so beautiful finish ! just lovely !
Absolutely beautiful finish and I love it just the way it is! Congratulations!
I love the BBD piece you've gotten started as well. Great job.
A lovely finish and great new start. Your ort jar looks great too.
I;ve been having some trouble posting on certain blogs - I did not get to say how wonderful all your framed finishes are. I can't believe how fast you stitched Betsy ! Love it and 13 Colonies is wonderful - someone in my stitching group just started it and I must say it is more beautiful in person. Love Le Jardin also - all your things are so pretty. Enjoy your week! Melody
Your LJ finish turned out beautifully. Nice progess on your WIP.
Your finish is beautiful ;)
Oh, it's such a beautiful finish! Thanks for giving me the designer name.
I love your BBD start! Whenever I see one of these lovely patriotic designs I wish that the Canadian designers would come up with some patriotic stitches. I'm envious!
Beautiful finish!!!! :)
Love your finish! The colours are just so pretty.
Lovely start on the BBD piece.
