I'll get by with a little help from my friends

It seems every week I'm asked for the name and designer of a piece I've framed and showcased on my blog.  Here's the problem... when I recieve a piece in the mail it may not have the proper title and designer included with the customer information, so I just make up a name (much to the amusement of the ladies at the Shepherd's Bush and the dismay of my readers) that will evoke an image and help me to remember the piece. This practice is not at all helpful to those of you who would like to stitch something they've seen here.  Therefore, I'm asking for your help.  When you send me a piece if you'll just include the title and the designer's name, I'll try hard to label all my records with the accurate information and you all can just click on a photo to get the information you need.

On a doggie note, you must be this tall to ride this ride... little Gidget seems to have a low tolerance for anyone shorter than my waist.  We spent many hours shopping this weekend without a peep out of either girl, but the minute a small child comes anywhere near her she lets us know about it.  She's a weird little thing.

And here are the before and after photos I promised from last weekend's big adventure. I cheated a little on the before photo.  It was taken a few years ago. (you'll note the refrigerator is different)  I still have a long way to go, but it's a huge improvement and a refreshing change.

Another week of beautiful work.

I bet the white paint really brightened the kitchen. It's kind of neat seeing the space around the stove where there used to be a wider one. Great projects again this week. The sampler and Christmas pieces really stand out!

The new kitchen is very nice and I am sure the white color brings more light in.
