This is my new design for my Freehand Crewel line. I call it my “Bohemian Crewel” style because the stitching is my random freehand embroidery that is meandering and funky. I use a mix of colors, a variety of stitches, and my wonderful vintage wool yarn. I love Burlap, so I used it for the pillow face…..deep brown velvet for the back.
I am listing it in my Etsy shop as a custom design. You may have any name, so the length of the pillow will vary with the number of letters. I will also offer my signature little accent motif, your choice of course, as in my mini pillow. Mine has a bluebird. This is a great gift for anyone! Darling for a child, teen, or …..Oh!…how about a LAST name as a wedding gift? See it in my Etsy shop. along with my other original freehand embroidery, and my fun art and comfy kids clothing.

It has been a very long time….Yes.
We were hit with the severe Tornados in April here in Alabama. I won’t go into lots of details, but we had a certain degree of damages and loss of all utilities including Internet. But, so many people were so much more affected that I feel I cannot complain. Yes, I am still repairing and getting back to “normal”…. Just got my new replacement laptop…..and trying to learn how to use this baby. I will be posting again with my latest custom work, so stay tuned.
Right now, I am so grateful for an un-eventful day. I do not do well with Chaos and Disasters. Quiet weather and a peaceful “go about my business” day is a true blessing.
Thanks to you if you stuck around and waited. Thanks to my wonderful Etsy customers! I am looking forward to a great summer and new fun stuff to create and show here!
Talk Soon, Kelly

This was my big piece for competition at our recent art show. I did this large, 30"x40" collage with vintage fabrics, hand embroidery with wool yarn, and odds and ends from my stash. I dyed the wool felt for her hair, and painted the muslin for her face and hands. I wanted a really primitive, naive style for this one....entitled "The Stitcher"....with the "Sew Cute" wording on the front. She is holding an actual embroidery hoop, with "I heart stitching" embroidered on it. The tape measure, thread spool, and pattern paper wrapped with thread are from my old tin of sewing stuff. Her eyelashes are dyed elastic snippets! Her eyes are deep turquoise velvet, and her wonky dress is an old piece of dyed wool. The buttons are from my great grandmothers stock from her "General Store" where I used to get bags of candy as a child. The flowers are also old stock, vintage silks with darling pompom centers!
This is a sentimental piece for me, and I am keeping it. But, I am going to offer this style as a portrait for children, or young at hearts, as a custom in my Etsy shop.
And....She won first place for needlecraft!
