Poste Italiane, cosa dire che già non è stato detto? Da me il postino non passa quasi più, quindi o vado io in Posta direttamente o la mia corrispondenza rimane in giacenza per mesi.... Comunque,
oggi ho fatto visita ai cari postini e per me c'erano un sacco di pacchi! Ecco le cose più "succose" arrivate...
Prima di tutto il natalizio secret sister exchange senza ricami con le amiche di Legacy (che quest'anno ho avuto l'onore di organizzare io...). Ero abbinata alla fantastica Linda Vinson, ovvero
disegnatrice di Needlemade Designs, che mi ha mandato due suoi schemi con l'occorrente per ricamarli: sono senza parole!!!
Italian Postal Service, what can I say more? Here the postman seems to have forgot where I live, so or I go directly to the Post Officec to see if there is anything
for me, or my packages and mails stay there for months.... Anyway, today I visited the Post Office and guess what? There was a lot of packages for me!!!! Let me show some of that precious things
arrived...
First of all, the Legacy Board Secret Sister Exchange, with no stitched pieces but just accessories (this year I have been the lucky girl that chaired it... :D): my Sis was Linda Vinson, the
wonderful lady owner of Needlemade Designs who sent me two of her wonderful patterns with something needed to stitch them

Thanks soooooooooo much Linda!!!
Poi ho ricevuto due semikit Cricket Collection messi insieme da Drema di Needlecraft Corner: Berry Nice e All Through the House,
con i fantastici bottoni e spilli JAB.... Bellissimi!!! Non vedo l'ora di iniziarli!
Then, I've received two Cricket Collection chartpacks made by Drema of Needlecraft Corner: Berry Nice and All Through the House, with the wonderful JAB pins and buttons.... Soooooooo cute
designs!!!! I can't wait to start them!

E l'ultima cosa la faccio vedere solo impacchettata.... poi la posterò sul sito
LHFB ben dettagliata :D Si tratta delle ultime creazioni
di Carolyn di Liberty Hill, avute grazie ad una preziosa amica con la quale condivido questa pazza passione: Mary Ann. Lei ogni anno partecipa allo splendido evento di Williamsburg e... pensa
a me!!! Così mi fa sapere cosa Carolyn prepara in esclusiva e me lo manda...
And the last thing I'll show you is still on a transparent package... then you'll be able to see it better on the LHFB :D I am talking about the latest Liberty Hill creations, handpainted by Carolyn, that I have the chance to
have thanks to a precious friend that I share my crazy passion with: Mary-Ann. She has the chance to participate to the wonderful Williamsburg annual event and she, once there, thinks about
me!!!!! Then she tells me what Carolyn has painted exclusively for the event and she send it to me...

Sono uno splendore!!!!!! Mary Ann, THANKS!!!!!!

Si, non sono mai soddisfatta e sono una gran criticona, chi mi conosce lo sa. E' per questo che proprio non mi è piaciuto come
Diane di
LHN ha rifinito il suo Falala, primo degli ornamenti di Natale che usciranno nel 2010, così l'ho confezionato come piace a me, aggiungendo qualcosa in più:
Yes, I am never satisfied and I criticize a lot, who knows me, knows it :D. That's why I didn't like how Diane of LHN finished her Falala ornament, first in a row of ornaments that will be released in 2010; so I've
decided to finish it as I like, adding some accents...

L'ho realizzato su lino tinto WDW con filati DMC e perline Mill Hill, usando il minikit di Drema di Needlecraft Corner, aggiungendo un cordoncino in perlè bianco e nappa con un piccolo agrifoglio
in ottone. Così mi piace!!! :D
I've stitched it on a WDW hand dyed linen with DMC threads and Mill Hill beads, using the chartpack that Drema of Needlecraft Corner sent me, adding a white perlè cord
with a tassel accented by a holly charm. That's the way I like it!!! :D
Una piccola ma importante nota: qualche giorno fa il forum di Legacy si è accorto di un blog russo sul quale compariva già realizzato l'ornamento di LHN "He's a flake". La cosa grave è che lo
schema di questo ornamento non era ancora in distribuzione nei negozi!!!!
Diane , la disegnatrice, informata della cosa, si è molto
rattristata per l'accaduto e ha postato che mai più pubblicherà foto grandi dei suoi nuovi disegni, per evitare scopiazzature illegali addirittura anticipate. Che dire... La cosa è molto molto
triste.... Nel commento in inglese trovate le parole dirette di Diane.
A little but important note: few days ago the Legacy forum discovered a russian blog with the newest "He's a flake" ornament from LHN already stitched and finished.
What's wrong? Well, the pattenr was not yet released!!!!! Diane , LHN designer and copyright owner,
has been informed and she posted that she is very upset and sad about what happened, so she will never publish big pictures of her future designs no more, to avoid any copyright violations. Here's
what she said:
"The finish was a theft of my pattern from a photo. My understanding is that the photo was scanned and a software program converted it for stitching. The graph was then "shared" with friends and
board members.
From here on out I have to make my images small and without pop ups so that this can't happen any more. I thought I was doing stitchers a favor but in the end it only hurt me.
The pattern, "He's a Flake" will ship on Friday to distributors as scheduled.
My heart is heavy but I forge ahead for those who respect copyrights and love needlework.
Diane"
This is so sad....

Natale è passato e siamo ormai vicini alla fine delle feste.... però l'atmosfera è ancora carica di magia, di quella magia che Babbo Natale ci lascia ogni anno. E allora ecco un suo piccolo
ritratto apparso sul mio albero: di Drawn Thread, si tratta di Peace and Joy, kit in edizione limitata tanto grazioso e facile da realizzare. Punti speciali, finitura con nun stitch e assemblaggio
tipo pinkeep, il tutto con filati Treadworx e Rainbow Gallery.
Christmas has gone and we are very close to this holidays ending... but the atmosphere is still so full of magic, that magic that Santa Clause left behind him every
year. So that's a little picture of him, now on my Christmas tree: from Drawn Thread the lovely Peace and Joy limited edition kit, so cute and very easy to stitch and assemble. Special stitches,
nun stitch to finish it as a pinkeep, everything stitched with Threadworx and Rainbow Gallery threads....

E ora sto lavorando sugli ornamenti di LHN... Drema di Needlecraft Corner fa dei carinissimi chartpacks con sconto, molto comodi e in spedizione automatica: sarà
Natale tutto l'anno!!!! :D
And now I am working on the newest LHN 2009-2010 ornaments..... Drema at Needlecrat Corner has wonderful discounted chartpacks that she can send at every new issue: it will be Christmastime all
year round!!!

Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing.
Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
Par Claudia :)
