Needlepoint Monarch Butterfly

This butterfly has been in the chrysalis of my mind for the past 5 years. I am very happy to see that he has finally emerged in such a beautiful way!

    Hi Carrie,
    What have you been stitching lately?
    Up here in Canada the snow is flying…it’s perfect weather for getting cozy by the fireplace and working on some stitchery.
    Hope you are doing well.

    Hi Carrie,
    Me again. I forgot to ask you if you know about this website:

    I’m sure people would love to buy your designs!

    Hey there! I have actually been working on setting up my Etsy store to start selling some items. I will put a post out here when it is ready to go so you can take a look. I have also taken up crochet – it is nice to be able to finish an item in a matter of hours rather than days/weeks/months/years like needlepoint! But, nothing will replace needlepoint in my heart. Crochet has been nice to alternate with needlepoint and I am finding that I am actually spending more time stitching than ever before as I am able to sustain more creative energy. We have 80’s down here in Austin, TX – not very holiday-like, I would love some snow!!!

    80’s eh? WOW! It’s hard to imagine when we had freezing rain today…everything is coated in a film of ice. I’ll trade you some snow for the ability to grow the plants that you can in Austin’s climate.
    :o)

    I love your new pincushion!
