Winners today! 1600 yards of hand dyed floss! 2 winners!

Be Ye Thankful!!!! We all have so much to be thankful for. It has been so nice reading your comments each day on these give-aways.
It is true that I don't have time to answer over 100 comments each day but know that I enjoy hearing from each and every one of you.
I appreciate your humor and sweet comments!

I know....get to the winners! It was a large box of names to draw from this time. For each one that posted on facebook or their blog, they got an additional 25 entries. My stack paper cutter got a workout on this one. Each person's name is printed on a page 25 times. Then all the pages are cut at once and the pieces are put in a box. Confetti! You can't use random number generators on this type of drawing.
The winners are: Babs in Alabama  and Rita. Congratulations!
Please email me at nbelgian@aol.com.

BUT WAIT!!!! It's not over! Lets do it again! Today's Christmas give-away will be another 1600 yard set of the 1795 Collection, 80 skeins of floss so be sure to enter!
See my next post for the 11th day of Christmas and be sure to enter there.
Santa Nancy is having fun!

New samplers framed, LOTS of pictures!

Since my grandsons are grown I have been skipping the Halloween decorations. I always decorate for Christmas on November 1st but this year I decorated early. I had a great visit from some Kansas stitchers....great friends...and I surprised them by decorating for Christmas early. I still have the tree to put up and a few more things but most of it is done. I thought I would explain that before I show a few pictures of some of my framed samplers...so you didn't think I had gone off the deep end!
      These new samplers go great on the walls of my office/workroom. It was the old living room in our house until we remodeled. I have lot of windows and I love all the light in this room...until you try to snap a picture of a sampler with glass on it. I did my best to avoid the glare.













The Home Sweet Home in reds was stitched a couple years ago and when one of the gals saw it she loved it so I printed charts for it. It also says Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home. It is stitched in variegated DMC, I selected the darker parts of the floss for certain areas and like the way it turned out. Fits an 11x14 frame and is shown 18(36ct).

The Welcome Spring I put into a beautiful antique hand carved frame. It fit perfect....just like it was made for it. It fits a 16 x 20" frame.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures.
Be sure to stay tuned for some of my best give-aways ever! You don't want to miss these....lots of floss and hand dyed linens.
Thanks for stopping by!
