Thanks to everyone who has been participating in the excitement of my shop opening. It’s such a nice thing to be part of such a beautiful community. I don’t take that for granted for one minute!
As part of my celebration, and as a “thank you” to you, I’m back to offer you my second freebie. (You can find the first one here.) Today it is a pattern based on a piece I filled with birdhouses.
Remember this?
I’ve taken part of that pattern and modified it into something stitchable just for you! Click on the image below to download the PDF.
I hope you’ll show me what you made with the pattern by posting photos to my flickr group. And, if you’re interested in purchasing the full pattern, head on over to the shop and check it out!
Well, friends, we’re nearing the end of the Grand Opening Week, but there’s still a little fun left to be had. There’s still time for you to get in on Wednesday’s giveaway, and tomorrow there will be one more. Hope to see you there!

















I love it! I wish my printer had ink so I could print it off to work on during my trip this weekend.
