I have always loved colour,
beautiful delicate feminine things,
making pretty things with my hands
and designing counted thread
needlework designs.
I sincerely hope you will find a design or two
that you would love to stitch.

Devastating Flood
~ 14 February 2023 ~
We are gradually recovering from our traumatic experience of a devastating flood in our area
which destroyed everything we treasured and had acquired during our 52 years of marriage
- home, vehicles, possessions, photos, family heirlooms, historical genealogical documents, orchard property and the Heirlooms Needlework Gallery
(all needlework stock and over 500 needlework pieces I had worked since I was a girl) -
and almost our lives.
As can be seen above
I have begun the restoration of the needlework gallery at our new location with my favourite items
- fabrics, threads, accessories -
my designs and designs from designers who are personal friends.
I have also begun designing again.
Our sincerest and humble thanks for all the love, care, concern and gifts received throughout this difficult time.
Sincerely appreciated.
May God richly bless you in return.
Your Needlework Friend,
Sherelyn
