Well, I had never stitched a 'Redwork' piece, but, maybe I would give it a go in the SBEBB Redwork Exchange.
I see on the board that Judith received the exchange I sent.
I found a free pattern on line, and thought it would look great stitched in the one color. I chose a varigated red from DMC, and stitched it on white -- finishing it into a pinkeep.
I also included some goodies in the package: a fat quarter of red/white fabric; a piece of white linen; assorted red and white fibers; note cards and magnets with a red/white theme; and chocolates in a red box!
Judith said she liked everything included! Yeah!! I do tend to stress about the packages I send... Silly, right?
I'll try to see if I can find the site where I got the freebie pattern, and do an edit later....
Edit: here is the link: Freebie It is under the 2006 archives 'Coeur'
Thanks for reading and your comments.... (I'm way behind on blogging, again!)

That is a gorgeous pinkeep Myrna!
Thanks again for the beautifull pinkeep and the package was what I just needed yesterday.
Great job on the pinkeep. The entire package looks yummy. :)
Myrna - that pinkeep is just gorgeous and looks great in red :)
Myrna, that pinkeep is beautiful and what lovely goodies to go with it.
You did a beautiful job, I can certainly see why she enjoyed the packet of goodies.

You did a lovely job on the pinkeep and the entire package is so nice.
You did good Myrna! Great exchange!
Beautiful work, Myrna, and your exchange packages are always so generous. :)
what a lovely piece for the exchange and all the other goodies too would have been well received (off now to print the freebie pattern off, lol)
Nice pack of goodies! Aren't exchanges great! I never do stitched ones as I'd get behind and mess it up, but I love stash ones and am currently being well spoiled by a Secret Sister!!
Very pretty! I like the color you chose and your finishing is lovely.
