“Greetings of the season, Karen.I am about
three quarters done with Language of the Flowers and am
delighted with the way it is coming out. This has been a
most rewarding undertaking, and I got to meet the designer
to boot! Sincerely, Manny Sargent” |

I just finished with the cutting and
wrapping and thought you might like to see your piece
finished by someone else. It was a joy to stitch. I picked
up the pattern at your booth at St. Charles Celebrations
this past September. Seeing the model sold me. ~Teresa Dorn |

Dear Karen, Here is my finished Spring Quakers. It isn't
ironed yet and I plan to have it framed. It is to
commemorate my 50th Wedding Anniversary so my husband's and
my initials are in the center and the bottom says Golden
Anniversary Garden.
Hope you enjoy seeing it!

Teresa Thompson adapted “Baltimore Rose Wedding Sampler” for
a couple who loves red, while and blue! She also added bead
to the design, this is just one more example of “BE
CREATIVE!” ideas. |

Karen,
Thanks for the
lettering for “Irish Rose Blessing”. It was fun to stitch!
I added some charms. You probably can't see it in the photo.
I put a small dove after the "peace", a heart between the
names and since my friend likes butterflies I put a
butterfly on one of the flowers.

Mother (Derrell Lenora Parker Johnson) or (Mrs. L.B.
Johnson) made 8 or 10 of the Zippa-De-Do-Da Purses while she
was 100. She is now 101 (as of 1-10). While I was taking her
picture, she was eating pecans. She is quite a lady and has
a wonderful sense of humor and attitude. She is just like
the Eveready bunny - she keeps going and going and going.

Karen,
This spring I worked your "Walk Beside Me" wedding sampler.
One of the things I liked best about the pattern was they
way you encouraged people to try something different with
it. I did modify it some, adding bands of Hardanger in place
of some of the cross stitch. I'm sending a couple of photos
of the finished piece because I thought you might like to
see a bit of a different take on your work. Thanks so much!

Hi Karen,
I just love your patterns and thought you might like to see
my rendition of your "White Christmas". I used Gentle Arts
"Mistletoe" overdyed fiber and faux fur and green velvet for
the finishing, which I did myself.
I've just purchased your chart for the beaded wedding bag.
I'm in love with it!
Keep on designing!, Robin Leach,

Hello Karen!
Well, after doing a cross stitch for a friend, I finally got
to do your chart" To Church I love to go". I just loved
doing it! One of my friends on a forum I belong to, liked it
so much she is going to buy the chart and do it! The only
thing I did different from your chart was to add krenik
blending filament to the stain glass windows in the church.
It just adds a little sparkle and looks so nice.
