Stitchy stuff

Hello fellow stitchers...

First of all....
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the comments, e-mails and the cards concerning my sister, it was so heart warming that you all took time from your busy lives, if even for a few minutes. Thanks again!!!! Love you all

I hope I'm back to this thing called blogging, lol
I have 1000+ in my google reader, not sure how many the + stands for, lol
When we were out riding the Harley a few weeks back, we stopped at a antique store and this is my finds...



Yes! these were all in the same store




I hope I'm back to stitching too


This is were I'm at on "Never Let You Go"


Which I haven't put in a stitch for weeks



I purchased all the new Prairie Schooler from Mary Kathryn she had a great price for all of them


And she always has fast and reseasonable shipping

I'm reading blogs and trying to get inspired for the Tree of Life Retreat in Terre Haute, Indiana this weekend.


I have my pre-stitching done, my exchanges are wrapped and the stash money is in wallet.


I can't wait! I just know I will have a hard time getting to sleep to night, in anticipation for leaving in the morning. I so need this get away. I'm sure I'll have pictures to post, oh yeah better not forget the camera, hehe I always jinx myself.


Have a great weekend!
