New Chart Now Available!

We are very pleased to announce that our "I Come To The Garden" chart is now available for $4.00 per chart.  It was our contest winner at the Nashville Market and our top seller at the Baltimore Market.    

We are even more excited to share our new chart format, which is pictured below.  Now on heavy card stock with a clear picture on the front, design and directions on the inside and the story and materials needed listed on the back. 

Let me refresh your memory with the backstory for this chart. It is in memory of my grandmother, Marguerite. She was born in February of 1900 in the small town of Stephens City, VA. "I Come To The Garden" was one of her favorite hymns and gardening was one of her favorite pasttimes. The sampler is worked in all Sampler Threads by Gentle Arts and has cross stitch, smyrna crosses and satin stitches worked in it. .

If you would like to place an order for "I Come To The Garden" or any other designs, please call or email at 703-779-0747 orashbaughjb@gmail.com.

New Version

Hello to everyone!   I wanted to share this picture and information with you all.   I made another reversion of Don't Forget To Say Your Prayers and loved the results.

  It has crayon-like colors instead of the traditional colors that I usually use.  This one is for a little boy andI wanted something different.   I stitched it on 36 ct. Edinburg Linen in Antique White.  I used DMC for the stitches in 729, 347, 931 and 3363.  For the finishing threads, I used DMC 931 and DMC Ecru in No. 12 in white using the same finishing directions as with the original chart.  I am now going over 6 threads on the backstitching when finishing.  I make so many of these I need to make them fast and this looks great and is so easy.

Nashville Market

We had a great time at the Nashville Market! Trinity Designs is now in 25 stores, including one in the Netherlands. We are so excited!

I want to thank my family for all their hard work on making it all happen for me. I could not have done it without them. So, Don, Marguerite, Caroline and Tim, thank you all so much!! This is a family adventure! I would also like to thank my friends for helping me get ready for market....as the Beatles sing, "I get by with a little help from my friends"!

We had a bit of a contest with store owners voting for the next chart to get printed. That was a lot of fun getting everyone's feedback/opinion. The results will be announced soon. So stay tuned.......
