Celebration of NW report

Well I arrived in New Hamshire on Wednesday. I was scheduled to take four classes. After having my arm twisted by my friends (wink) I signed up for 2 more classes. So on Thursday at 8 AM I was in class with Sherri Jones taking Fair Charlotte's Souvenir Pyn Purse and later that day Maureen Appleton's Garden Trail: Thread Box. After these there were my classes with Jackie du Plessis of It's Fine-ally Finished, on Friday and the Round Robins. Julie Norton of J Designs class was on Saturday and the Saturday Night Event-a dessert social and auction to raise money for Breat Cancer Research. My last class on Sunday was with Lauren Sauer. If you have an opportunity you should make every effort to attend Celebration of Needlework at one of the 2 locations. You should find something to to satisfy your needlework taste.

Where does the time go?



April 16, 2007 is a day that this nation should never forget. My prayers and sympathy to all suffering from the events at VT.
(On the left is a card that I sent to one of the families of a student at VT.)


I was able to get caught up on my ATC exchange cards. I finally got them in the mail on the 28th. I hope that everyone will enjoy their ATCs. My stitching for my correspondence classes are way behind. I hope I can completer at least 2 for evaluation. The other stitching I have done is for a gift that will be presented later this year. I have to finish my part so that I can pass it on the next stitcher this weekend. I will try to remember to get a picture of my section before passing it on. There are 6 of us stitching a sampler for some friends. More about this later.

This week I plan to attend Celebration of Needlework in New Hampshire. I am really looking forward to seeing my stitching friends again. This is the second year that I will be attending. The sponsors do Celebration of Needlework will host to locations this year. In addition to this weekend's event they will be in Louisville, KY, September 12-16, 2007. Friends, new projects, new teachers, and a shopping mall what more could a stitcher want.
