Pamela from Dayton, OH, used letters from The Great Outdoors pattern to spell her sister’s last name. She had to adjust border elements, including the saw that cuts the log O, to fit around the name.
Yee-ha, Pamela! Thanks heaps for sharing; we love seeing how you stitchers adapt a pattern to Make It Yours—or your sister’s.
I like the fabric used to finish the wall hanging. Excellent choice.
Now who’s going to stitch one that says “Funk & Weber”?
News and nonsense about needlework, reading, writing, life in Alaska, and any other ding-dong thing that strikes my fancy. From project tutorials to books on my nightstand to gardening to travel to sourdough bread and waffles to wildlife and photography--it's all fair game. "Focus Schmocus" are the magic words here.

I am ahuge fan of The Great Courses. They are great for watching or listening while stitching. And they're great in the car, on the mp3 player or iPod while gardening or picking blueberries, etc.
