Yesterday on Facebook I saw a new post from The Scarlett House with a new sampler, Martha Evans, 1879. You can see it here on The Scarlett House website. It was love at first site. Love the colors. Love the verse. Love the border. In the comments, someone said they had pre-ordered it from The Attic. Grab the phone. Make the phone call. Chart is ordered. Floss is ordered. I think I have the called for linen but if not, something else will work.
Then, I saw on Instagram that there’s going to be a stitch along! This is to celebrate Brenda’s birthday – Brenda of Brenda & The Serial Starter from flosstube. I love Brenda so I cannot wait to start this.
If you’re interested and if you’re on Instagram, check out @penelope_tucker. Brenda’s birthday is January 16 so that’s kinda the planned start date. They’re calling it a “start month” – between January 16 and February 16 but, it seems no one is checking names and start dates and worrying about who starts when.
I’ll be stitching it . . goodness knows I have plenty to stitch in January, but . . why not one more, right? It’s Brenda’s birthday! 🙂
It really is a gorgeous chart and it looks huge but on 40 count, it should be about 13″ x 13″ – not huge at all.

I’m beginning to love pinks and reds more and more. But, I have a friend who doesn’t like pinks so much . . something wrong with her, wouldn’t you agree? 🙂

It is. Hands Across the Sea does such a great job with their charts.
