You feel so much love in what she creates…you want to touch it all, have it all and feel connected to this authentic vintage vibe that is from days past…

Stacy has been selected in Martha Steward’s AMERICAN MADE contest.  I know some of you don’t pay attention to designers and who’s pattern you are currently making but I will bet you, you have some of Stacy’s Buttermilk Basin patterns in that collection of yours…I am asking you to help me support Stacy and vote for her… the link below here brings you to the site…Click on American Made…she is on the 6th page…Please sign up and vote for her…she really deserves it…I know she has given so much to our stitching community…Lets give a little back to her and take a few minutes to vote for her..You can vote up to 6x a day…I’m sure once a day would be appreciated but 6 would be over the top awesome if you can!!!
