This and That

First I have to say a big, huge thank you to Robin. She sent me the remaining "Spot of..." patterns from Drawn Thread! I can't wait to start on Fall, it's so cute! Thanks again, Robin!

Spot of Fall, and Welcome Spot

I am still working steadily on "The Learning Girl Sampler" and enjoying each stitch (except the french knots). I failed to read the instructions thoroughly and did not realize until last nite that all Satin Stitches were to be done with 3-ply (everything else is 1-ply). So I am going back and stitching over the outside blue border. You can see where I started in the top right corner - it looks fuller and brighter. Only 10 more letters to go and I should be able to start on the house soon.

And last is a little design I did several years ago and pulled out to make into a pillow. I'm sorry, I don't know who the designer is or the design name. Believe it or not, I did take time to iron it this morning - I probably shouldn't even admit that, oh well.

I have a busy week ahead of me. The Women's ministry at church is having a lunch this Saturday. It's also an opportunity for ladies to showcase their talents, it's titled "God's Bountiful Blessings". I am on the committee and we still have a few last minute items on our to do list. I can't wait to see all the wonderful things the women are bringing to display - quilts, knitting, scrapbooks, paintings, needlework, and even some ladies reading their poetry. And my favorite, the bakers - homemade goodies for all us to taste, yum!

Happy Stitching!
