Meet Belle Pepper!

I mentioned a while ago that Theresa Venette invited me to create a "Jenny Bean and Friends" pattern that would release this fall along with other designer's "friends" patterns.  I immediately thought of the name "Belle Pepper" as Jenny's friend.  Everyone has come up with their own name, pattern, etc. and I have to say it has been a lot of fun. 

This chart will not ship until mid-September but I saw other charts going up on the internet so I wanted to get this one up too.  It's called "Be Merry - Belle Pepper".  I have included an optional word for the bottom of the chart if you wish to keep Belle's name off. 

I hope you like this pattern as much as I do!

The Family Sampler Snippets

This is the last snippet view of The Family Sampler until the reveal of the actual piece in mid-August. It shows you some of the details in the design, the coloring, and elements.  The pretty berry colors are beautiful in this design.  :)  See the box with our family surname initial?  That's where you'll put yours!

OK. . . . so the last person has not claimed their chart!  Do we have another drawing for the fifth winner?  What?  I can't hear you. . . . . lol. . . . . of course we will draw again.  So tomorrow at 6:00 am we will draw again if the last person doesn't respond by then.  It's the contest that never ends!

News to report. . . . . .the supply list for "Under the Tree", the 10th ornament is on our web site.  Sorry. . . . no picture just yet.  :(  I have also uploaded pics of the upcoming thread packs in the months of the year series.  Those can be found on the cotton packs page.

Was there confusion yesterday when I posted Curly Q Ewe (a pattern of ours) and the Jenny Bean announcement?  Yes, I think there was!  Theresa and I both looked at it and didn't see a problem but then we are in on the information behind it and I think that's why.  So here's the scoop. . . . . Theresa came up with this awesome idea to include other designers in her Jenny Bean series.  We've created samplers for "The Friends of Jenny Bean".  They are all little garden girls like Jenny Bean and my sampler is called "Be Merry" which features "Belle Pepper".  This patterns ships in September around market time.

Happy Stitching!
