I haven't tried the Mirabilia's although I do have a few of their free ornament patterns. They are quite stunning done up. A LNS near me had quite a few of them hanging on their walls. Most of their designs are stitched on linen and although I love linen, I tend to cross stitch on Aida - 14, 16, 18 counts. I posted some pics a few weeks ago here of some of my work; they are showing up on page 9, maybe 10 by now in Pictures.

There are a TON of free patterns out there and a few great sites. ABC Stitch Therapy, The Stitchery, Herschnerrs (sp?), and 123 Stitch. You can get lost for hours!

Gotta get more photos taken, I discover this evening, for my memory album. But here is one of the stockings I've done.

Here is a Christmas stocking I made for my grandbaby that is 4 now.

Re Miribilia, I have several of her patterns but have not completed one yet. I have done about 18 of her mother's designs. Her mom in Marilyn Levitt Imblam (or something like that) She puts out all the Lavender N Lace, Butternut Road and Told in a Garden patterns.

I love to cross stitch. Of course I did it more before I got hooked on quilting, but I still enjoy it.

Thank you. When I was working the ER most of the time, especially nights, I had lots of down time to sew. Now I need to get more to show you, AND the best of all, I'm more motivated again - thanx to this post.
