One Stitch Ahead

Summer celebration • Pay homage to formal Tudor gardens with this delicate blackwork-style design highlighted with bright sunflowers as we celebrate warm summer days.

Beeing Bizzy • This quartet of sweet petite-stitch bees is buzzing by to brighten your day with a happy message.

FRUIT SLICES • Nothing says summertime like a refreshing slice of watermelon or tangy citrus. These tasty motifs are perfect for a quick-to-stitch band, or they can be used individually to dress up napkins or other table linens.

Hello Summer • Stitch a sunny greeting to welcome the season with this bright and colorful design nestled in a bed of delicate vines.

Stitching Around the World • The History of Greek Textiles

Athenian Sunflowers • This charming design originates from a vintage Greek needlework booklet. In the center, two stylized sunflowers flank a large cross. Both motifs are common in many Greek folk embroideries and this design most likely would have been used as a border for cushion covers. The color palette fresh and vibrant, and the backstitches worked in gray-brown provide intricacy and contrast.

The Beach Is Calling • A weathered board provides the ideal backdrop for this stitched sentiment that poses as a favorite mantra to many individuals throughout the year.

Sunday Afternoon Sail • Enjoy a relaxing day of stitching as you work your way through this picturesque scene from Elizabeth Spurlock that was adapted from a photograph taken on a sail along Long Island Sound.

Tropical Sailing • Bring a touch of the tropics into your home with sandy beaches, vibrant hibiscus blooms, and palm leaves swaying in a gentle ocean breeze, reminiscent of picturesque island landscapes featured on vintage postcards. Finish this bright tropical display either as a sail on a model boat or complete the project as a traditional flat finish.

Heaven’s a Little Closer • As you stitch this peaceful ocean scene, imagine the calming sound of waves brushing the shore and let it refresh your soul.

Remember • Stitch and celebrate the commitment and bravery of the individuals who serve in the American Armed Forces. Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard are represented by the colored petals on each branch.

Home Sweet USA • Create a piece of farmhouse-style decor with this stylish design, complete with a full alphabet for easy personalization.

Early American Liberty • Borrowing from well-known words penned by Katharine Lee Bates in 1904, this design echoes sentiments of patriotism in early America.
