Melissa Shirley's Cream Farmhouse


Upper right hand corner



 More of this beautiful piece...This is Melissa Shirley's Cream Farmhouse.  I bought the canvas at The Needle Works and sent it to Amy Bunger for my Cooking Up a Canvas class last March.  How much do you love the sky?  I love it with every fiber of my needlepoint being.  Keep checking the blog this week and all will be revealed.
P.S.  This stitch guide is available through amybunger.com.

    Hi Steph,
    This piece is absolutely stunning. I love all the stitches that Amy picked for this canvas and your stitching is just beautiful. Don't you just love Amy's stitch guides.

    Linda-It is scary how much I love Amy's stitch guides. I am dying to get the Thanksgiving House even though the Creche is sitting here. Hope you had a good weekend.

    Hi Steph,
    How lucky is your big boy to be getting a real car. Jake has a way to go before his mother has to worry about that.
    I too am very excited about the Thanksgiving House and I also have the Crèche waiting for me to get back to it.

    So we both have Needlepoint Madness. A disease for which I hope there is no cure. In addition to the Creche, I have two stockings with Amy stitch guides. In my defense, one is almost finished. I am getting Helowise from Melissa Shirley at ANU in March plus the Thanksgiving House in April plus the rest of Kelly's Nativity from Amy's. Uh-oh, that sounds like a lot when I put it that way....
