Anna and I spent the day on Thursday in Wisconsin visiting three needleshops
The first one was Country Sampler in Spring Green
We had lunch at Rookies
Then is was on to Mt Horeb to Witchery Stitchery
See the sampler on the lupin linen, Anna kitted it up. It was the first thing that caught my eye
I can't remember the name, but the designer is Rosewood Manor
Then back to madison to visit Lynn's of Madison
I forgot to take pictures there. Each needleshop was terrific in it's own way, different charts and fibers
This is the stash I picked up
40ct lt vintage examplar for Christmas Garden (maybe, having second thoughts) w/ CC threads, charcoal linen for Colonial Garden and two packages of chenille
Dead Man's Chess
Sledding in Connecticut, Proverbs 31:13 and Oh Christmas Tree, a trade I did with Cathy(pumpkin patch) for Sergei that got tossed in thereIt was a fun day.
Thanks for stopping by and Thanks to all that commented on Easter Parade
Good Night!!!

I absolutly love the turkeys on the shelf! can you tell where you got them?? I tried to email you but was unable to get it to go through. You have some great shops in your area. We are kinda bare down here. I live in Metamora which is close to Peoria Illinois. Sounds like you had a great time! Thanks, Kathy Simpson

Some shops are such a wonder to go into onto themselves such as the Country Sampler. But all shopping is AWESOME! LOL Sharing the experience with friends is even more awesome and lunch too boot...HEAVEN. LOL Thanks for sharing your day with us. I vicariously enjoyed the ride too.

Hi Ranae!! We missed you last Sunday at IN! How fun- Country Sampler- isn't it great? Mt. Horeb- how close is that to Madison and Country Sampler? I visited the town when I was younger- would love to go back though. Happy Stitching...
Oh boy, I wish I had only one of these shops within reach. And I would drive miles and miles for it ...
