We’re sure you are all getting ready for the big night… but most
of us will not be standing elbow to elbow in Times Square or flying the Concord
around the globe and celebrating New Year’s ten times over! We are happy to sit in
front of TV, with the fireplace glowing, and a little glass of champagne.
Wherever you are, we wish you the Happiest of New Years! And while none of us knows what 2017 holds… always believe good
things are coming!

Here’s a little look back and little look forward from San Francisco Stitch Co.:
Series Three Baltimore Album designs were some of our best work to date… it
might surprise you to know that our sample shown in the
instructions is really a bunch of test stitch outs cobbled together—we went
back to re-stitch the final versions for our show quilt version, and this is
the state of that project…

So wherever you are in the series, don’t get discouraged… top
priority for January is to finish this up, and we will all cross that line
together, oh, yes, we will. Stay tuned. And yes, there will be a Series Four!

Our Twelve Days of Christmas has six down, six to go… we had
hoped to have the Four Calling Birds for you today, but the birds had a
different idea. We want to salute our Aussie friends with a Kookaburra… in addition to a crazy call, he has
rather a large head and beak and just wasn’t looking the way we wanted. (Yes,
he’s auditioning for the Sydney Opera House in the background.)

It’s been our mantra
that nothing comes out of this studio we’re not thrilled with… so we’re moving
on to Canada and Geese for now, and we’re sorry, you’ll have to wait. We hope to have the
series wrapped up well before Valentine’s Day… (that’s well, well before next Christmas!) Here’s a picture of a gorgeous
setting block we plan for between each star block to keep your taste buds watering…

And now for some new business…
Most of you know that while our hearts will always be first
and foremost with machine embroidery, our roots are in quilting… so for the past
six months, we have been collaborating with award winning quilter, Tere D’Amato,
to make our first ever, all patchwork design. It’s called the Summerhouse
Block-of-the-Month and you will have your choice of Sampler, Row by Row, or
Medallion quilt designs. If you don’t want to commit to a large project, we’re also making a one-off creative project each month in 2017. (Check out the sew cute Bath Mat Tere whipped up below! )

So sign up for the series, or just visit month to month to see what’s new at the Summerhouse! We’ll be posting it for sale on the website at the crack of midnight… or
maybe just as soon as we finish that glass of champagne!!
