I'm Home Again!




Just got back from a fabulous, fabulous weekend in Syria, Virginia with the most awesome group of stitching women ever!  Sponsored by The Stitcher's Stash in Fairfax, Virginia and held in the most wonderful, rustic log cabin building, it was a weekend of fun and laughter and stitching and catching up with old friends, meeting new friends and more!  Jackie, the owner of Stitcher's Stash, obviously put tons of thought and work into this event and it was oh so very successful.  I can't wait to go back again next year!

My new designs were debuted and were well received.  I'll be loading all of them on my Etsy page either tonight or tomorrow morning.  You'll be the first to know!  The sampler above is one of my new designs.  It's called Miss Martha's Potting Shed and is named after my sister Marty.  

The last new design you haven't seen yet is below:



This one is called Christmas Day, 1826.

Also, Jackie has several remaining kits of the Black Heart available if you'd like to order one through her.  Once her kits are gone, the chart will be unavailable for a few months, until I officially release the design.  Jackie's kits include the necessary Needlepoint Silk and Weeks Dye Works' Putty linen available in either 30 or 35 count.  You can reach Jackie at 703-218-3131 or you can email her at:  thestash@verizon.net

I'm off to get some much needed sleep!  Be back soon!

Your new designs are fabulous! So glad you participated at Jackie’s Stitchers Stash retreat. I enjoyed everything about the weekend - the location, food, making new friends and the opportunity to stitch with you.
