    Cross Stitch patterns

    In celebration of Halloween, I have chosen Glendon Place patterns for my September pattern sale.  Cheryl has some incredible designs, many with Halloween themes, to choose from.

    Glendon Place is a cross stitch pattern company started by a great lady name Cheryl Granda.  She lives in Florida with her husband and dogs.  Her favorite past times when she was a child were art and sewing.  Her grandmother taught her to sew, as mine did.  Cheryl has been designing cross stitch patterns for over 3 years now.  She has many themes that focus on the holidays.  Halloween being one of her favorites.
