CHALICE WELL GARDENS 30 ct LINEN

Hello Stitchers, this is my new fabric: CHALICE WELL GARDENS 30 ct linen, inspired by my fav place in the world where I spent so many summers, the Chalice well gardens in Glastonbury - UK...

Usually I dye dark/fallish/winterish fabrics and a springly one was really needed, I think I'll add some more light colours to my collection.

If you like it and want to support my small business you can purchase it on my website: CLIIIIK

or on my Etsy: CLIIIIK




Chalice well gardens is available in 30 ct linen and, on request, in aida and 40 ct linen.

EARLY STITCHERS' CLUB 2022: Clonfert Mermaid

Hello dear Early Stitchers. This month I took the brave de- cision to design something really prim! She is the CLONFERT MERMAID, a magnificent fishmaiden carving. You can admire her in in Saint Brendan’s Cathedral, Clonfert, Co. Galway - Ireland.
Dating from an addition made in the 15th century, she’s holding a mirror and a comb in her hands.
My precious model stitcher Elisabetta B. stitched Clonfert on 30 ct Dusty gray linen by The Primitive Hare using 2 threads on 2. Thanks so much sweetie.
I really hope you’ll love this strange but inspired pattern.... I have loved it a lot.

MY NEW SHOP!!! AND 15% OFF ON EVERYTHING




Hello my dear stitchers, it's time to come back to normality! These 2 last months have been very busy but also relaxing, and now it's time to come back to work with you.
I want to present you MY NEW SHOP. As you know Etsy is killing us with fees... for this reason I built my own shop. Prices are cheeper than on my Etsy shop and there is a SALE!!!!! For 24 hours I 15% OFF on EVERYTHING!

I'll open my Etsy too, and I think I'll have both shops on for few months, but obviously I ask you to use my own shop instead of Etsy, an my business is a family business and I can't afford anymore the extra super high Etsy fees.

Enjoy my shop! And thanks!!!!!

Hello my dear wicked hares! This is the second pattern I designed for the 2022 Club. I truly wanted to be in time and for this reason I upload this pattern with a provisional cover. The stitched piece will be available at the end of July. As many of you probably know I had some health issues and for this reason I had to close my shop for a lil bit and rest. I’m better now and I have begun to design again. Elisabetta, my model stitcher is super busy.
The cover of this pattern will be updated asa she’ll have finished to stitch the pattern.




Thanks so much for your understanding, I know that nowadays a lot of designs use to create ‘false’ background for their projects but I'm not very good at that, I have to learn LOL.
