Nautilus.
I made this pattern to stitch for Christmas for a lovely lady I know who loves anything swirly.
After waking up to 8 inches of snow this morning, I thought "What better day to release a beachy design!"

Hello friends!
A stitcher friend asked if I had a pattern for "Grandpas" to go with my "Grandmas" design. I did not, so I made one. With all that my dad went through this week, he had a heart attack and went through quadruple bypass surgery on Monday and came out of it like a champ - and being an excellent grandpa himself - it just seemed perfect!
Here's my newest design "Grandpas", for my dad! :)

Hellooooo!
Here's a new one...
A simple primitive design for Thanksgiving - or anytime! Says "I am Thankful..." then you complete that sentence in your mind every time you read it. Living with an attitude of gratitude will lead to happiness, and just a better world in general, me thinks!!!

work work work :)
Hello! Hello!
Sorry I've been gone for so long, I've got (another) new job that is keeping me busy.
I now have 2 jobs in addition to "The Stitcherhood" (a labor of love, however mostly for fun... copyright violations (theft) make it virtually impossible for many designers to make a living with just designing.
Last October, I got a job with the "Athens Area Arts" a local group that promotes all local art events (music, dance, theater, painting, photography, sculpture, poetry - you name it, we promote it!). I really enjoy it.
NOW I've got an additional new job as the business manager at our local dance studio, "Factory Street Studio" (which is awesome because my daughter takes 6 classes there a week - tap, ballet, pointe, modern, jazz, hip hop - and I feel like I'm always there anyway!)... my dream job!
I am so blessed - I love ALL of my jobs! :)
I do still plan to keep designing - it is my passion - and here is my latest release:
Available here in PDF - http://thestitcherhood.com/patterns/red-skies-144-new-p-162.html
Available here in leaflet and PDF - https://www.etsy.com/shop/stitcherhood
Hope you all are doing well and enjoying the summer!

hand eating watermelon with the other in my
swimsuit singing the Star Spangled Banner!

Maybe you should just STITCH it!

Just back from the Beach!
Hello friends!
I am back from Florida, visiting family, and soaking up all of the warmth and sunshine that Ohio has deprived me of for the last 5 months!
Here is a "selfie" of me at Cocoa Beach.
(I am a beach girl at heart!! :)
New designs coming very soon!
:) Smiles! :)
