This is Lisa's daughter, Mariah. I just wanted to let everybody know that while driving to work, she was swept away in the river. She had been missing since yesterday at 6 a.m. but this morning, firefighters found her body in her car. She was the best person I know. She was also more than a fantastic wife and mother, the best any of us could ask for.

Eliza's Sampler


This plain sampler was first stitched by my great, great, great-grandmother, Eliza Winton. I'd like to thank Edith Anderson, who has the original, for allowing me to reproduce it.

Salem Village

Here is another new release for Nashville~



Here is Salem Village. It was a fun stitch. The cool tray is from East Side Moulding. I used 40 count Vintage Pear from Lakeside Linens. The fibers were fun! They are Florimell Silk Floss by Gloriana. Really variegated, I love the look of them.
