Love & Marriage by Lorene (Lorie)

2009-10-12T06:56:00.004-04:00

Lorie stitched this for her son Matt and his wife Paula. She used 3 strands of DMC floss through out and stitched it on Banjo Cloth by Charles Craft. Looks like it was an anniversary gift by looking at the date! I love the fabric. Thanks for sharing Lorie....Nancy

Margarita by Vicki

2009-04-06T07:23:00.004-04:00

I could not resize this any bigger. I love the fabric Vicki used! FROM VICKI"It was stitched with DMC and the border was WDW (just a skein that I had lying around), I tend to change the recommended colours on "funky" (that is a good word in Australia LOL) designs like this one.
The fabric was from an Australian Fabric dyer - Naomi at Stitches and Spice, www.stitchesandspice.com.au it was fabric that I picked up at a craft fair about 4 years ago and it was just waiting for a design like this to be stitched onto it ."
Thanks for sharing your finish with us. Great stitching...........Nancy*GloryBee

Dora has done it again!

2008-08-17T14:31:00.005-04:00

Dora attended my stitch-in last Saturday and I got to see this in person. The picture does not do her stitching and finishing justice. It is absolutely stunning in person! She stitched it on 40 ct sand linen. Great job, as always! Nancy

Freebie from Kim

Kim, one of my model stitchers, sent along this picture of a freebie from my website. She stitched it over one and finished it as a scissor fob. I love the primitive look the jute gives it. Nice photo, too. Thanks Kim!

Bonnie's BYOB on 45 ct fabric!!!!

2008-07-22T16:24:00.004-04:00

I received a picture of Bonnie's finished BYOB in the mail yesterday. I can't believe she used 45 ct fabric, I could never see that, even with magnification. Bonnie used DMC floss.

Fantastic job! Thanks for sharing this with us..........Nancy

Glory Bee Gallery!

2008-07-03T16:27:00.000-04:00

I have created this Blog as a place for stitchers of my designs to post pictures of their completed Glory Bee works. All you have to do is email the photo (jpg) and the information you want posted with the picture: name, first, last or both, city, state, both or neither. Also if you remember which fabric and fibers you used please list them as well. These do not need to be framed but cannot be works in progress. If you made changes to the design we want to see those pictures also. I love to see what changes you have made to my designs.

I hope you will consider allowing me to post your finishes for all to share.

You may email me at: glorybeecrossstitch@gmail.com

Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you.............Nancy*GloryBee
