Tangled Stitch

A new skinnier heart ornament.  I hope people like them. Autumn is lovely up here in Upstate New York.   Reds, oranges, yellows and green dot the landscape of the beautiful mountain ranges.   The air is crisp, the syrup is fine, the harvest is plentiful.   So much to do and see and don’t   please don’t forget all the wonderful art galleries, restaurants and taverns awaiting patrons.   With the economy and gas prices a little bit higher than we would like them we have to remember the beauty and splendor of nature and escape.   Please come visit us and buy our local fare.  

This Autumn Tree is available at Valley Artisans Market in Cambridge, New York. It is the most beautiful time of year again up here in the Upstate New York Region.   The time when our thoughts start to drift from the beautiful shoreline to the beautiful changing hues of the trees and the certain crispness in the air that requires a light sweater. It is the perfect time to visit Upstate New York, the apples are ripe for the picking, the leaves are resplendent in red, orange and yellow, and the pumpkins are abundant.   Come and visit one of our local farmers markets or farms.   You can prepare your entire breakfast for months with the spoils of our nature.   You can buy your own pancake mix, mix it with farm fresh eggs and milk that are produced by our dairy farmers, and then serve it with maple syrup straight from the earth.   There is honey for your coffee, bacon from our meat producers and smokers, jam from our plentiful summer fruits, delicious ar...

This Heart Butterfly will be available at the Valley Artisans Market Seconds and Pottery Sale this weekend.  Every artist has work available at a reduced price and Kathleen the wonderful member in charge of this event has really outdone herself so please come by and shop!  Many of the artists will be in and out over the weekend so please come and meet us too! The sun is shining on the water, I made some great eggs, and I’ve been embroidering for hours.   What could be more beautiful?   I don’t have any pictures to share my phone is upstairs and I am in the galley room.   It looks like a galley, I’ll have to ask if that was the intention or not.    The house is built on the water which I found fascinating really.   I find everything about this place fascinating.   One of the cats disappeared for hours only to be found somehow under a bench next to the kitchen. It was wild and woolly but all’s well that ends well. I took a ride to C...

Hi All! It is a beautiful time of year up here in Upstate New York. The trees are absolutely magnificent. I feel very blessed to see such beauty right out my front door. Tomorrow I am driving up to Cambridge to work at Valley Artisans Market and I am looking forward to the scenic drive and the wonderful energy that is present at VAM. I love to work there, both with the customers and on my embroidery. There is something special about working in a place filled with beauty and somehow that beauty can be felt in the energy there. Can't really explain it. Autumn Tree is hand embroidered on tea stained fabric and can be purchased at Valley Artisans Market. I love to hand embroider trees and I loved using all the different fall colors in the piece. I hope someone enjoys it as much as I enjoyed making it. Gotta run. Back to work! Keep stitching
