Welcome!

Introducing !! The Pattern Page. We are excited to share with you our new line of Pattern Page designs. Each of our new hardanger creations are rich in traditional hardanger yet set apart by design. Each design format is on an 8.5" x 11" heavy card stock single page. The front of the page has a color photo and on the backside there is a quarter pattern charted design with instructional information. Each Pattern Page is affordable in price so you can indulge and get them all. Each of the new designs "Deb", "Ellen", "Sara" and "Sharlene" are smaller in size to accommodate this new format. If you find that you need additional stitching guidance you can reference either "Take the Hard out of Hardanger" learning DVD or spiral bound reference guide. Both are excellent resources for stitching techniques and helpful tips.

In addition to the release of the Pattern Page series we are eager to share with you "Audrey" a beautiful runner size approximately at 28" x 10". This new hardanger runner design is in chart pack formation due to the size of the piece it couldn't be released as a Pattern Page. I certainly can't forget to mention the Hardanger Pin Keep and Case - this is a charming design that you are definitely going to want to add to your stitching "must haves".

We are also offering an Exclusive Limited Release of a beautiful runner "Simply Natural" this unique design was created specifically for an imported linen runner that has three woven 14ct Aida inserts. A quick and impressive hardanger creation; I simply loved to design on this beautiful runner provided by BrunnerHaus.

"TAKE THE HARD OUT OF HARDANGER" Instructional Learning DVD is now available. This 90 minute instructional learning DVD introduces you to the basics of hardanger embroidery. Along with additional stitch techniques so you can create nearly flawless hardanger from the very first stitch. A step by step process is demonstrated, while creating a small sample doily. You may stitch along or you may view this DVD to enhance your hardanger embroidery skills.

Valuable basting instructions, kloster block formation and journey placement, buttonhole edge, satin surface work and the eyelet stitch are demonstrated along with cutting and fabric thread removal. Plain wrapped bars, the Perfect Picot, the dove's eye stitch, adjoining wrap, the dove's eye variation wrap, double/triple cable and an alternative buttonhole edge shown in great detail.

You will find two DVD specials listed below.
