Pink Rose
Tuesday 11 August 2009
Good Morning ! I have been working on a new cushion design these past few days after work. It will be something a little different and should be ready later this week. In the meantime I thought I would give you a mini rose bookmark to stitch. I am mad on roses and those who read my blog regularly will know that. I took the photo of the rose above this summer and think it is very beautiful.
As I continue to work on my blog I regularly visit other sites and blogs to see what other cross stitch and embroidery designers are doing. I will from time to time feature designers that I like. A week ago I visited the site of Blue Ribbon Designs. They design beautiful cross stitch charts as you can see below.
Here is a sample of their designs which I took directly from their website. Please note the copyright in all these designs belongs to Blue Ribbon Designs so if you would like these just visit their website where you can find out where and how to buy their charts.

And what about these – Ornaments or Scissor Fobs.

So thank you Blue Ribbon Designs for your gorgeous charts. I look forward to seeing your new designs as they come out.
And now for my mini roses bookmark chart for you to stitch. Again it is easy to stitch. Enjoy !

The free chart and instructions are included in the boxnet widget on my site. Have fun stitching it ! My new cushion cover to stitch with wool and canvas coming in the next day or so.

Today’s thought for the day is from the Little Book of Calm by Paul Wilson;
“Love the Moment – when you concentrate your attention on absorbing every details of every moment – savouring every taste, hearing every sound, noting every colour – you will be calm before you know it”
Have a wonderful and happy day – Happy Threading !
