  • In this episode I share all the details about a fundraiser for Hurricane Helene Relief efforts in Western North Carolina. I was asked by Sandra, with Cross Stitch & Crafts, to participate in a fundraiser supporting hurricane victims. I designed a small ornament with a message of hope during this time of distress. Go, Tell It On The Mountain that there is hope and you are never alone. Grab a pen and paper, your favorite beverage, your cross stitch, and let's get started.

    I bring this design to you in a time of uncertainty and grief for many. I was asked to participate in a fundraiser for our dear friends affected by Hurricane Helene 2024. I knew immediately I wanted to continue my series of songs, words that bring hope to us during a season when so many are experiencing so much loss. Go, Tell It On The Mountain is a song about bringing the good news of Jesus’ presence to the world. I can just hear the shepherds and wise men as they left the manger, anxiously traveling to the next town where they could spread the word of hope born in the dark night.
    As we support our neighbors and friends, let’s stitch together and share the love of our craft and friendship with those who need it most. Go, tell it on the mountains that there is hope!
    Stitch Count 91 wide x 60 high Finished Size 5 x 3 3/8"
    Fabric: 36 count Baklava by Grace Notes Fabrics Using one strands of floss over two strands of linen.
    Floss used: Classic Colorworks: Campfire, Hickory Sticks, Pebble Beach, Pine Needles, Tea and Biscuits, Weeping Willow Weeks Dye Works: Whiskey The Gentle Art: Chalk, Toasted Barley. DMC 936 was used to make the cording
    A DMC Color Conversion is provided
    A special thank you: to Jan Hall for her beautiful finishing talents. to Sandra Jablonski with Cross Stitch & Crafts for organizing this fundraiser.
    Thank you all so much for supporting my channel. I hope you enjoy spending time with me while we talk about all things cross stitch and quilting. Please feel free to email me with questions you may have.
    And always remember that a finished project is better than a perfect project.
    Happy Stitching and Take Care!!
    Annie, The Proper Stitcher

    Dear Annie, thank you so much for your generosity. I think I speak for all of us witnessing the devastation hurricane Helene left behind and how helpless we feel. I appreciate you designing this beautiful ornament and giving us another opportunity to do something good. My hope is that we will be there to support these communities in the months to come, when it is no longer being addressed by the media.

    Annie... so happy that your sister in law is safe. When we drive from Florida to New Hampshire we always go through western North Carolina ( we avoid route 95!) and we are always amazed at the beauty in that section of our country.... so sorry to see the devastation there. It really is hard to imagine when we look at the pictures of the damage and the towns that were totally wiped out. Our area in central Florida really did not sustain much damage and we thank God for that... I will be ordering your beautiful cross stitch piece and thank you so much for having this fundraiser. God bless you and all of the people that have been impacted by the storm.💕💕

    You have such a giving heart and I will be ordering the pattern as this is one of my favorite hymns and now it has so much meaning. Being a 26 year employee at the American Red Cross I know how important this will be to those that have been devastated from this disaster. I have the cording tool but have never used it so really need to get it out.

    So happy your sister-in-law is safe and with you. Love your design and your heart! I live in Asheville and am very fortunate to have no property damage or injuries. We had no power or Wi-Fi for 10 days after the hurricane and still do not have water after 2 weeks. So many things we take for granted like flushing the toilet and washing dishes and clothes, and taking a shower! But I cannot complain when so many are suffering and have lost so much. During the 10 days without power I had to stitch during the day by the window, I tried but was not able to stitch at night by candlelight. It made me appreciate the young girls who stitched all those samplers in the past before electricity. I love Marshall and we go there often to dine and shop, so glad you are helping them!

      Oh Debbie, I am so glad you are safe. I just love Asheville and go there several times a year. I just know it will forever be changed. I am so glad you were able to have your stitching with you. I know, for me, it can bring peace and comfort.
