Ghost Stitching and Finishing:

I have been asked this question several times : if I will ghost stitch and then finish a certain project. So I thought I would place a general statement here.

If you are interested in a service like this please contact me with the pattern you wish stitched that includes: a picture (or link) to the project, size of the finished project and stitch count. Tell me how you want it finished and I will decide based on this information if I can stitch and finish for you and what the cost shall be.

For Reference: I have in the past stitched models for Diane Williams of Little House Needleworks and Sharon Crescent of Crescent Colours.

Wall Hangings





Have a piece that you would like made into a "Wall Hanging"? Well drop me a line and we'll have a chat! I can piece fabric for you around stitched item to give it a little depth and frame the stitching, then I mount it onto acid Free Mounting Board and create a Hanger (either *visible* (as above) or *invisible* like a regular photo/picture you hang on the wall) A very economical way of creating a hung picture with out the expense of framing. Custom Orders - general quote given at time of contact - depends on size, amount of piecing wanted, and embellishments used.
