I am glad to show you one more review of our digital product – the Red Dachshund cross stitch pattern. Thank you, Suzanne, for these kind words; we appreciate the review very much. It is said in my country that there are dogs and there are dachshunds. It seems that a dachshund is not a dog at all but a state of mind. Dachshund owners, do you agree with this?

Yesterday I packed and shipped orders to the USA: cities of Arvada, Colorado and Dublin, Virginia and today to Stamford, Lincolnshire, UK. They were sunflowers, daisies and poppies garlands. Business is booming, so I am making more garlands again. The packing looks like the picture in my house. I use several types of stickers: the small white ones are my favourite, I ordered them a lot in the UK for my old shop, and I still use them (I won’t throw them away), and the big brown ecological ones I ordered locally in Poland, I don’t like them very much. As soon as I finish them, I will purchase new ones in the UK with a new shop name. I made The stickers as arrows made by myself and stick the box so that the customer knows how to open it. I am proud of these stickers. What is your opinion about them? And at the end, I always tie the box with the threads that I used for crocheting the garland.



We have a new cross stitch pattern – the Red-backed Poison Dart Frog, a terrestrial frog, gets its common name from the splash of colour across its back that can vary from scarlet red to fiery orange. Less than an inch (2.5 centimetres) in length, this colourful frog is small enough to be included in the group of frogs called “thumbnails.” Primarily a ground dweller in lowland areas of the upper Amazon of Peru and Ecuador, it does occasionally climb trees. Its poison is moderately toxic (from https://www.aquariumofpacific.org/onlinelearningcenter/species/red_backed_poison_dart_frog)

Today is the last day of our holidays and we back home. We were walking, swimming, sleeping and eating a lot during this week. I wasn’t sunbathing, but crocheting all the time and made two nes Poppies garlands here. Two! What means 18 poppies and 16 leaves and I’m proud of myself!



We’re on vacation this week 🤓😎🏖 so some photos I took yesterday evening from Krynica Morska, small resort on the Baltic Sea 🌅




More of the same Quaker Ball stitching, a beautiful Dragonfly this time 🤩 I took this photos yesterday evening, so white evenweave looks like grey, not white one.




Next part of Lakesideneedlecraf Quaker Ball by Durene Jones pattern is ready 🙂



One more cross stitch card from The World of Cross Stitching magazine 🙂
