Get Together and a Finish

About 20 stitchers from SC, NC and even GA met up in Manning, SC for a stitching day hosted by Amy. It was a lot of fun! I forgot my camera, but took some pictures with Amy's camera.

We had so much fun stitching, chatting and eating!

Faye gave me these pins in exchange for a chart from my sale blog. I love them!! Thanks again Faye!

And here is my little finish...

Blackbird Designs "Summer Iris"

Fabric: 34 ct. Cafe Au Lait Legacy Linen

Threads: Gast and WDW

Started: 3/19/10 - 3/28/10

There were three other finishes by Faye, Karen and Chris yesterday too. You can see them in my flickr album. Well, I'd better get back to laundry! Write soon!

Miserable Week!

I caught a cold and I've been miserable. I'm finally getting over it, thankfully! That spring cleaning I was talking about doing... Yeah, it didn't happen (except for a few charts I sold - thank you to those who bought them)! I go down to Florida April 1st and I was hoping to get a lot done before then. Maybe I still can, if I can find the motivation!

Anyway, I did do a little bit of stitching on Paradise Lost...

I finished the angel, sun, and crown on the right side of the banner and started on the clouds above the banner.

I also decided to start something new..

It's Summer Iris by Blackbird Designs. I'm stitching it on 34 ct. Legacy Linen (Cafe Au Lait) using the recommended WDW and GAST threads (2 over 2).

Well, I'd better get dinner started! Write soon! :)
