Stitching Lottery signups

Signups for the Stitching Lottery end tonight at midnight :) At the time we have 6 members! The stitched pieces should be finished by July 4th! Let me know if you finish early, as we may send early if everyone finishes quickly. Remember your piece should be finished after it is stitched. Examples of finishing would be a pillow, pinkeep, biscornu, framed, purse, scissor keeper... etc. The possibilities are endless. We are such a creative group, that the end results will be exciting to see. Take a picture of your finished piece for future use, but do not post yet, as it is a surprise project! SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU ALL IN THE GROUP!!! Also, if you would like more information, click on the Keeping Track link on the top right of the site. Thank you all, and HappY StitcHing :)

Quiet

It has been so quiet lately on my blog ... I hope everyone is doing good... enjoying summer, and getting some stitching time in. Today is a cool day ... and cloudy... I have my hot tea simmering as I post (cinnamon hot tea!) (love it) and my candles burning ... and my small stitching and sewing projects awaiting me as soon as I finish my tea! A perfect day when it is too cloudy for the beach - as far as I can tell! I also may stitch up a biscornu freebie with mice and cheese... When I finish that I will send the link with it!! Hope everyone is smiling !! HUGS Laura
