Needlework and Quilting Pieces For Sale
Purchase Janet's own hand stitched pieces.

JMD Designs - Janet M. Davies's piece.

I have recently moved house and it is time for me to downsize my personal collection. I have designed and actually hand stitched all featured below. This is your chance to own an original piece of me.

I am selling each piece for a lot less than their true value as I want these pieces to be loved and enjoyed by many. I am told they are worth 4 times more in monetary value than I am selling them for. But I have had my fun designing and stitching them and it is your turn to love and enjoy them in person.

Once each piece has been sold they are gone; be quick.
What you see is just the tip of the iceberg of pieces I will be selling.
