This is the original housewife. She came from Carriage House.
This is the originals sister. She also came from Carriage House. These two hang out together and stick with each other thru thick and thin.
This is a Stacy Nash class piece
This is also a Stacy Nash--Garden Gate
The front of Garden Gate
This is the inside of With Thy Needle
And the front
This huswife speaks southern French--she's from the French General
This huswife calls herself The Anniversary--see that date. Yep (gulp) that does say 2002. Want to know why she isn't finished? Everyone say together "Queen Stitches."
This is a a Sampler Cove huswife. It is all flame stitch.
And there are the huswifes waiting in the stash. Another Sampler Cove.
These two are by Cherished Stitches
This is Sarah by Blackbird. Fabric already selected and waiting.
Of course I am very partial to the Great Grandmother Sarah Miranda housewife. In case any of these huswifes decide to give up their roles in Huswifes of Thistle Manor, I am pretty sure there are others willing and waiting to take their places.
I overheard a rumor on Sunday that the producers of The Real Housewives was in Music City aka Nashville doing auditions for the next version of the show. This is really scary. If/when the show airs you will find me at home with my cast of huswifes.
Wow, you have some great huswives there!! I love them all, including the WIPs and the stash to come. Queen stitches are a pain, right? But just think, if you get them done, you'll be so good at them! lol! Thanks for the tour -- love it!
