2011 Stitching

Because we have guests arriving tomorrow evening for 3 weeks-my computer time will be pretty much non existent until January 5th :) So I am posting my stitching plan for 2011 now for those that want to be included :):)
I have decided that for 2011 that ANY stitching I post to my blog will be going out to one of my regular readers/commenters. If I stitch something for myself and want to share a pic-you will be referred to another page to view it. Every stitched item I post to THIS blog will be sent to live with one of my readers :) :) My home is overflowing with stitched goodies in EVERY room and 2011 will be a year of sending many stitched items out to you all :) If you see something you like in 2011...please don't be afraid to comment and let me know :)
Some of you may receive one or more items from me in 2011 :) You all know how much I love to stitch and finish and giving it away to those that love stitching as much as I do makes me the happiest :) :) I hope to touch many friends/readers with my stitching in 2011.

I would like to ask that all my regular readers/commenters send me their mailing address ( unless I have it already) if you are interested in being considered to receive a stitched/finished item from me. Please send info as soon as you can so that I will be ready to go with the first stitched items in early January :) -some of you I haven't corresponded with in a long time will need to resend your mailing info as I did a "clean-up" a while back of email and addresses I no longer use :) :). You can find my email in the side bar :) PLEASE include the word mailing info in the subject line.

I am working on my last ornament-it's for my DD-she picked out the one for her BF and one for herself-I am loving it as it is gingerbread people (CCN). I will surely have to stitch it again for my kitchen :) I'll *try* to share a pic when I get it finished. I HOPE to have it finished before our guests arrive tomorrow evening so I better get back to my warm comfy stitching chair :):)
Take care friends :)

Sending hugs and love from SC :)

I know your daughter will love her new ornament. The one for her boyfriend is really cute, and I'm thinking I'll have to stitch it up for my daughter and her fellow.

Your 2011 stitching plans are so generous. We all enjoy seeing what you've stitched and what unique finishing ideas you have, so it will be a privilege to have a chance to display your work in any of our homes (and I know I can speak for all!). Thank you for blessing us with your gifts.

Vicki said...

Wow Becky, that's really generous. I don't know if I count as a regular commenter/follower or not. I read your blog every time you update it and I have commented some, but not on every post :-)
I love your idea for giving things away, in fact, I may borrow it. My house is filled with items I've stitched and there are several more I'd like to make for myself. Can't wait to see what you do in 2011. If I get picked for a giveaway, I'll provide my address.
Merry Christmas!

staci said...

Wow Becky! You are truly the most generous stitchy blogger out there...and you continue to show it time and time again! I know you'll be making so many people happy with your beautiful stitching.

Have a wonderful Holiday Season with your family and friends. Looking forward to seeing your DD's ornament!

Dee said...

Enjoy your company and have a very Merry Christmas!

Becky, I just loved seeing the pictures of your house. I hope to have that many stitched pieces in my home one day. :o) You are so generous with your talents and as a former recipient of your work each and every one is a treasure. I would love to be included in your 2011 plans and can't wait to see what you stitch next!

Carol R said...

Becky - you have such a generous nature and anyone who is lucky enough to be on the receiving end of your generosity is indeed blessed!

Your Christmas decorations look wonderful!

Maggee said...

I think 2011 is going to be a very different year for many stitchers. I know I am considering stitching from my stash to a certain number of finishes, before I buy any more charts. I may have to buy fabric or threads, tho I have been stocking up of late... And there is another group planning on stitching 15 projects they have had in their stash in 2011. (I already did that in the early summer, on my vacation, so mine are WIPS--not new starts!) Your plan to share is a great one, and may be the start of a new trend in blogging too! I will have company for two weeks starting Friday, and it will be tough to blog for me too. Merry Christmas Becky! I have enjoyed your blogs very very much!

Denise said...

What a wonderful and very generous idea. I regularly check your blog to see what you have been stitching. I always end up putting something on my wish list or ordering a chart I have never seen before when you stitch it! You definitely inspire me. Thanks! Denise

Theresa said...

Becky, You are one of the most generous person I know!! I truly enjoy everything you make and anyone who receive your work is very lucky!!!

Colleen said...

Becky, Bless you & your family, this Christmas season. Your heart & love is overwhelming.
Peace be with you.

Berit said...

You are such a blessing! I am so looking forward to enjoying all the love and joy and positive stitching spirit you encourage us all in again in 2011. :D

I think that your idea of blessing readers with your is a wonderful one, and I can't wait to watch you reap the fruits of these seeds you will be sowing. I KNOW that your motive is blessings for others, but I have a feeling you'll be blessed consequently in ways you can't even dream of now. :D

Very Merry Christmas, my friend!

Jan said...

The chance of receiving a BeckySC stitched piece is too much to pass up. I'll be sending my address to you.
I want to makemy holiday wishes to you and your family before you go offline for awhile. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Have a safe and happy New Year's too.

Roberta said...

Wow, Becky, you certainly are such a nice person. I love what you stitch and share with us. You have given me some great finishing idea for which I am grateful.

Enjoy your time with your company and have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

What generous plans you have for 2011. I always admire your stitching and your finishings are always inspiring. I would count myself honored to be able to own something you finished.

I wish you and yours a magical Christmas season. And a heslthy and happy New Year.

Carolyn said...

Becky, you truly are one of the most generous people I've ever known. Your blog and being a part of your exchanges, etc. over the years has been an inspiration and learning experience for me from the beginning. Thank you for helping me learn to think "outside the box" in finishing my stitching. I wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas filled with love, blessings, health and happiness. Hugs, my friend. :)

Susan said...

I have guests at my house, too - my parents are visiting from Australia - they arrived yesterday, and will leave here on January 3. I haven't seen them in almost five years, so I'm pretty excited to have them visit.

You are so generous, Becky - I can't wait to see what you have on offer next year, but until then, I hope you and your family have a blessed Christmas, and have lots of time to enjoy spending with your guests.

{{{hugs}}}

Tanya said...

I was in a few of your exhanges, but I'll send you addie info just to be safe.

Thanks!

Prim2Pink said...

I don't think I would qualify as a regular reader just yet, since I have just recently found your blog. Maybe next year?
With all the wonderful things you manage to get accomplished each year...there will be a LOT of lucky followers.
I haven't read very many of your older posts yet, but have you done any tutorials on how you finish your stitchings into an ornament?

Enjoy your company and All of you have a very Merry Christmas

Becky said...

Becky - I found your blog earlier this year and have enjoyed following your needlework (and other) pursuits throughout the year. You have such a gift and have been tremendously inspirational to me and to many others. Thank you for your time and willingness to share! I look forward to seeing more accomplishments in 2011 and perhaps being a recipient myself.

I'm sure I'm not the first to say it but your 2011 stitching plan is very generous. I've read your blog for years, don't always take time to comment but enjoy seeing how you finish things and what you're stitching. Anyone blessed enough to receive a piece from you will excited I'm sure. Hope 2011 continues to bring you and your family many blessings.

Once again, thanks Becky for being so generous time and time again. Seeing your stitching and finishes has really been an inspiration to me in my own stitching.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!

Lisa said...

Wow Becky, you are as always so very generous. You really do bless people with your wonderful stitching and finishing. I'd love to be a lucky recipient one day maybe, so will send you my info.
I hope you have a wonderful time with your guests over the christmas period.

Susan said...

You are a kind and generous person.

Thank you!
Merry Christmas!

Happy Stitching!

Ann said...

While I read your blog constantly (you're on my Google reader so I don't miss a post!) I rarely comment. In fact, commenting more is one of my resolutions for next year.

So I doubt that I count as one of the people eligible for your giveaway, but that's OK. I still want to thank you for your kindness and to let you know that you are an inspiration to me--I've got a finished ornament on my tree this year because of you! Without your inspiration I think it would still be languishing in the drawer with so many other stitched pieces!

And next year there will be more...

Gabriele said...

Oh Becky, how generous you are! I really don't know if I count as a regular commenter but I visit your blog very, very often and really have great pleasure to look and read.
It would also be great to receive something from you and would be very proud to have a "treasure" from you in my house.
Happy and blessed holidays, Gabi in Germany
