Now available at your local needlework shop . . . Mermaids and A Pirate's Life.

Mermaids
*MERMAIDS*

Swimming amidst the bubbles, our colorful little mermaids are a whimsical new addition to our Cottage Kids line.  They were stitched with DMC threads, as well as Crescent Colours' Pink Champagne, Amethyst, and Really Teally, Weeks Dye Works' Lucky, and Sampler Threads' Spring Grass.  The fabric used was 30 count Weeks Dye Works Morris Blue Linen, and the frame is from Crescent Colours' line The Family Tree.

A Pirate's Life
*A PIRATE'S LIFE*

Yo ho, Yo ho, A pirate's life for me!  Such is the dream of many a little boy (mine included!).  Styled to look like a whimsical old treasure map, this design was stitched on 28 count Vintage Light Examplar Linen and the frame is from Crescent Colours' line The Family Tree.  DMC threads were used along with Crescent Colours' Bandana, Bramble Bush (2), Peanut Brittle (2), and Weeks Dye Works' Lucky.

Summer Retreats
*SUMMER RETREATS*

Honeybee Hideaway, Ladybug Lane, and Butterfly Bungalow - a trio of cute little cottages all included in this pattern.  All three are stitched entirely in DMC on Wichelt's 28 count Lambswool Linen.  The frames are available from Crescent Colours' line The Family Tree.

*Correction*
Some of the back symbol pages of this chart contain an error.  The symbol for DMC 794 should be a black triangle.

Beach Cottage
*BEACH COTTAGE*

Country Cottage is going to the beach!  And in this new design we've tried to capture the essence of the perfect beach cottage
that we all wish we could visit.  The design was stitched on Wichelt's 28 count Café Mocha Country French Linen and the frame is from Crescent Colours' line The Family Tree.  You will need Crescent Colours' Deep Blue Sea, Sunkissed, and Weeping Willow as well as Weeks Dye Works' Pecan and Mocha and some DMC threads to stitch the design as shown.
