PUNCH NEEDLE & PRIMITIVE STITCHER

The premier issue of this magazine came out in May.  Here is a sneak peak at the cover of the August/September issue.  Look for my "Witches Walk punch needle pattern designed exclusively for PNPS.  Working on the last in the Barn series... "Wool n Sheep Barn".  Will post progress photo soon.
Have a stack of designs drawn up waiting to be punched.  It's always crazy like this before the Fall Shows start.  Stay tuned i may be appearing at a location near you. Keep on punch.

PIG N PUNKIN BARN

Pig n Punkin Barn is done and the pattern is ready to post on etsy.  This is the first in a series of  barns with animals on weather vanes.  Chix n Egg Barn is on my frame.  Sheep n Wool Barn is waiting patiently.  I've been designing by day and punching by night!  I've needed to keep busy as many of you know, after my son, Todd's passing last month.   This is the first time I've mentioned it here.  It was well documented on FaceBook.  He had a heart condition, but was feeling good.  Had been out on his Harley just the day before.  It was a pulmonary embolism, he died in his sleep.  Todd had just turned 47 and for the past 8 years lived in the little log cabin on my property.  I miss him everyday.  Keep on punchin.
