Welcome to "Stitch on Prints"

I am loving the new fabrics coming out! Two of my new favorites are Aspen Frost and Boo Crew!

Jenny Hart of Sublime Stitching , This ain't your gramama's embroidery, has offered us the use of her Hand Embroidery Tutorials! Is she not awesome!

Sublime Stitching is Jenny's store and full of everything you might need for embroidery. Thank you Jenny!

Aspen Frost
basicgrey
Moda

On the Aspen Frost mini tumbler quilt, I decided I wanted to used a straight stitch to hand quilt it. I need some more practice as you can see my lines are not always as straight as I would like them.

Boo Crew
Sweetwater
Moda

I just love to stitch on the monster print! If you look carefully where I used French Knot for some of their eyes. Then using the Back Stitch
 in their hair! Giving them texture and a little 3D effect!

Our awesome friends at Aurifil have provided a sampler package of thread for the Giveaway. I use Aurifil 12 wt. thread for all my hand stitching.

This giveaway is open to all! It ends on July 11, 2013! If you are a no-reply blogger leave an email!

1. The question is: What new fabric do you have your eye on?
Edit - 2. If you leave me a link in the comments to a stitching you did!
(No link, no entry)
3. All followers get an entry because without you where would I be?

Three possible chances to win!

Create and be Unique, Lisa

Edited to include:
A friend shared this version of the Star Spangled Banner
Madison Rising. I think it is one of the best! Please take a moment and enjoy!

And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
