Our model for Bee to the Flower was submitted in the 2010 Needlearts Show at Montpelier Mansion, Laurel, MD.  The show runs until July 30th.  If you find yourself in the Washington, DC/Baltimore area, stop in to be inspired by the beautiful needlework on display.
 
 
 
Our newest design, Sarah Rogers 1803 Sampler, debuted at the TNNA Needlework Show in Columbus, Ohio, and is now available through Norden Crafts and Hoffman Distributing Co.

We also released  Bee to the Flower at this year's Spring Online Needlework Show, which is also available through Norden and Hoffman.
 
Both designs use Threadgather Silk'N Colors and are stitched on Wichelt Linen. 

Many have asked about the text in the

Sarah Rogers 1803 Sampler

Here it is:

 

"All you my friends who now expect to see
A piece of work thus performed by me
Cast but a Smile on this my mean endeavor

I will strive to mend and be obedient ever

Sarah Rogers her work in the year of
Our lord 1803 in the 12th year of her age
Despair of nothing that you would attain
Unwearied diligence your point will gain."
