It was a nice drive. No sunshine, but it wasn't raining either. There were 25 people total, I think. We had a few people just come in for the day on Saturday and a couple that had to cancel, one with an injured back. I hope she's better now!
There is a shop on the way down that I stopped at in Bloomington, IN, called Fancy Works. Liz and Diana are the owners and it's a great shop! IF you ever get to the area, please stop in and see them! Tell them I sent you!
I bought a few things, of which I only have 1 picture right now. A pair of scissors.
They are called Tudor Rose by Kelmscott Designs (I think that's the name!) They are very nice and I'm working on a special scissors fob for them. I bought a few other things, but have to wait until tomorrow to get pictures.We had a fabric and floss dying class and it was fun! Here are a couple pictures of the results of that.
And I finished a large piece while at retreat - Ellen Maurer-Stroh's Rose Sampler. This was a free SAL for 2008, which I didn't get started until May or June, I think it was. I'm pleased with the results.
I took a close up picture, but it didn't turn out very well. I'll try again tomorrow when I take stash pictures.
I also finished Woodland Sampling by Little House Needleworks, but that wasn't until after I'd been home a couple days.
I got to see 3 of my little "ghouls" this evening. Here are a couple pictures of them and my great-nieces. Aren't they cute?
Well, this post has been long enough. I will post again some time tomorrow with some more stash pictures and I may have the scissors fob done, too.
That's all for now!
Terri, great job with the stitching! I just love the Rose Sampler!
