MelitaStitches4Fun is a place where I can post my needlepoint & connect with other stitchers.
I’ve been needlepointing since I was a young girl. Once I discovered the American Needlepoint Guild (ANG) & learned 30 stitches from my first correspondence course, I was on my way! I’ve been designing my own needlepoint since then & have taught a few of my pieces to each of my chapters (Main Line Stitchers in Wayne, PA and Keystone Garden in Buckingham, PA). Another design, Overdyed Spools, is in the 2017 Chapter Project Book and is an EGA Petite Project. I’ve been published twice in Needlepoint Now (Sept/Oct 2021 and Mar/Apr 2022) and several times in Needle Pointers with three of my designs Celebrate Love, Festive Fireworks, and Tahitian Treat making the cover (Mar/Apr 2013, Jul/Aug 2017, and Mar/Apr 2021, respectively). I’ve won multiple ribbons from ANG and Woodlawn.
I’ve enjoyed blogging since 2010 & look forward to many more needlepoint adventures. Thanks for coming along with me!

Hi Melita,
Saw your post on ANG list and wanted to say how much I like your work–especially the fun part — seems to be all of it. The Love in My Heart design is super and I particularly enjoyed the close up photos of the hearts. Keep on stitching and having fun.
Laura, a kindred spirit
