Something sweet is growing at Evening Shade Cottage 🍓

I am working on a new Victorian-inspired strawberry embroidery design, and this one brings back such happy memories.

As a little girl, Strawberry Shortcake was my favorite character. I still remember my mom making me a Strawberry Shortcake pillow—a sweet childhood memory that has stayed with me all these years. 🥰

Strawberry shortcake is also my favorite dessert, and even my wedding cake had strawberry filling! Strawberries have always been my favorite, so it seems only fitting to bring them into my designs. And who doesn’t love strawberries? 😍🍰

With winding vines, delicate blossoms, and beautiful red berries, I cannot wait to bring this design to life in stitches and share the finished piece with you.

Every stitch tells a story, and this one holds a little of mine. 🤍

I love quilting, and I wanted to offer something a little different at Evening Shade Cottage. 🥰 All of my exclusive designs will soon be available as embroidered quilt blocks, and “God is Good” is the first.

This piece began as a quilt label design. While stitching it, I reached the thread change where I would add the personalized wording—but it was so beautiful just as it was that I had to stop. I stitched the personalized label separately and decided to offer this version, too.

Use it in a quilt, make it into a pillow, table runner, or placemat, or frame it as a beautiful reminder: God is good, all the time. 🤍

Available with or without custom wording on my website and Etsy.

This is one of my favorite designs to stitch. 🌹

I created this Victorian Christmas label to give a handmade quilt its own little piece of history. The Christmas tree and delicate details make a lovely finishing touch, and the wording is fully customizable. It would be just as beautiful on a table runner, place mat, wall hanging, or special keepsake.

If you know my husband, then you know there was no chance he was helping me set up today without fans blowing on him the whole time. At least he came prepared. lol

Come see us and say hi at the Evening Shade Fall Festival on Main Street. We are right across from Plum Spring. 🥰🌹

In anticipation of the first day of fall, I am welcoming the season a little early with rich autumn colors, heirloom roses, and pumpkins gathered inside an elegant Victorian frame.

The Victorian Autumn Basket Tea Towel brings a touch of old-fashioned beauty to the kitchen and makes a lovely addition to your own fall decor--or a thoughtful hostess gift for someone special.

Some words are too precious to live only on paper.

My new Custom Handwriting Wedding Handkerchief transforms a meaningful handwritten message into embroidery, creating a deeply personal keepsake for a bride, groom, mother, grandmother, or someone dearly loved.

Each handkerchief is individually created from the customer's own handwriting and finished with delicate embroidered forget-me-nots. It is a beautiful way to carry the words--and the love behind them--through one of life's most treasured days.

Twenty-five years ago today, our nation changed forever.

We remember the innocent lives lost, honor the heroes who ran toward danger, and hold in prayer the families who still carry that loss. May we never forget the courage, sacrifice, and unity shown on September 11, 2001. In the face of unimaginable evil, God brought forth countless acts of courage, compassion, and love. As the world watched the towers fall, it also watched a nation come together. May we remember that our actions can change the world too, especially when we care for one another and stand together in unity.

God bless America. 🇺🇸

My first two Etsy reviews are in, and I truly could not have asked for sweeter ones. 💗

Every order from Evening Shade Cottage is made and packaged with great care, right down to the handwritten card. Knowing that both the workmanship and those personal touches mattered to my customers means more than I can say.

Thank you, Sandra and Carrie, for trusting me to create labels for such meaningful quilts—and for taking the time to share these lovely reviews.
