I've just posted the FREE May design on my Yahoo Group and on my website. I created a nice cancer ribbon that includes small hearts in the satin fill stitch. Projects that are created with these ribbons are usually created because someone has lost a loved one, so I thought the little hearts were perfect.

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to all of our new followers and Hello to everyone else!

Updates over the past week
Price Reduction!! You may have noticed that the last few sets that I added to the website were at a lower price. Well, that's because I've been in the planning stages of lowering prices on almost all of my sets. This is in large part due to feedback received from the Shopzilla/Bizrate survey that's completed by my customers after their purchase. If you've purchased anything from my website this year, you had an opportunity to complete the survey; it just pops up after your purchase. If you didn't complete it previously, please take a minute to complete it with your next purchase. Thanks to all that did participate; your feedback does count!! :)

New This Week - Keep an eye out for the following new products. I worked on the price reduction for 3 solid days, so I didn't have a chance to get the Polka Dot Font or the thread on the website, but I will this week!
  • #374 Polka Dot Font - 4 inch high [uppercase only]
  • Madeira Thread Bundles
  • If time allows ~ wine bottle koozie template, small sippy cup template, and some additional supplies [lint brush, seam ripper, stabilizers]
