Oh my goodness what a wonderful, wonderful giveaway. I would just love to have your new patterns. Please add my name to your drawing. Thanks so much!

4. #494 Martha Have just recently discovered your awesome designs and would love to add to my collection (of 2 .. so far). Thank you :-)

5. #358 Blogger Evy said...Well, love is all about giving to so maybe he wasn't that far off :)


Congratulations ladies! Please e-mail your address to alma@blackbird-designs.com

Will send out your packages this week.


We feel very humbled by all of your kind words. We want to leave all of you with something to stitch while we are at market. The picture below shows the project. Barb stitched the small sampler in the hoop. The framed piece is the antique piece Barb found at an antique show this winter. She fell in love with the colors and the small size of the piece.


I will have my husband upload the chart for you tonight. I thought it would make a great coin purse. A little zipper at the top. When you open your purse and pull it out ....everyone will want to know where you found it! Or stitch it into a small pillow...just the right size to tuck on a shelf.

We will try to keep you posted at market. I make a lot of promises...but usually when we are working there is little time. My daughter will be there to help. She's pretty savvy about pictures and computers. I'll get her to lend a bit of help.

As you are stitching this small piece, know that Barb and I are thinking of you.

Until later,

Alma

  14. Congratulations to the Winners! I can't wait to get my hands on these lovely designs. Alma, I love that you two have started a blog. I really enjoy seeing what you both are up to and also enjoy the pictures. You take such wonderful pictures and the vignettes are so fresh looking. I just want to create a book with your vignettes as a coffee table book that I could cuddle up and dream away of having a home with this wonderful decor.

    We are getting ready to move back to the States soon, and I hope that I can catch a class with you two and get to finally meet you in person.

    Hugs,

    Chelle
