Exchanges, a Gift & Meeting a Friend


I had such a fun day on Tuesday! I drove up to Fancimats and met Jacque. She is just the sweetest, funniest person. We had a great day shopping and having lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. She gave me an absolutely gorgeous drawstring bag. The first picture is the outside of the bag and the second is the bottom of the inside. Pictures don't do it justice, it's so pretty. Thank you again Jacque, I was so happy to get to meet you in person and I am looking forward to seeing you again next year :-).

I got the prettiest redwork pinkeep from Vonna. She also sent me some of the DMC sparkly threads and the easel the pinkeep is setting on. Thank you so much Vonna!

Finally this is the little redwork pillow I made for Carol. I used one of the Blue Ribbon Designs freebies :-).

We had a great trip to Virginia. Dyeing to Stitch is a wonderful LNS, they have some amazing models. We also went to Busch Gardens while we were there. We lucked out and picked the perfect day, good temps and no crowds. We saw several shows and rode the roller coasters. I can't stand rides that go in circles but I love to ride coasters.

I am going to have to change my list of stitching projects. I kitted up several things tonight including Peaceful Paradise by Midsummer Night Designs. I always have more projects going than I ought to but I couldn't resist this one :-). I hope you all are having a wonderful week! Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment on my blog. I so appreciate it.
