Welcome to my Etsy store, Works By ABC, and thank you for visiting! My name is Arlene Cohen and, yes, my initials are indeed ABC. (My middle name is Beth, not Elizabeth, just Beth.)
I have been stitching since I was in high school. Starting with cross stitch, I have expanded to all types - counted canvas work, blackwork, Hardanger, and more. Needlework is more than a hobby to me - it is a passion, it is a devotion, it is as necessary as breathing. (Okay, maybe that last part is a bit of an exaggeration, but hopefully you get the picture.)
As I have designed some of my own needlework pieces for years, it was only natural that I took the step to offer some my designs for sale. All patterns are available as paper copies to be mailed or PDF digital downloads. I hope you enjoy what I have created and return to visit again soon!
