SBQ & Goals!

Hello everyone! Its SBQ time again, its been a bit since we've had one, I kinda miss it when the moderator is on holiday!

Q: With the exception of your online stitching friends, do you have any other stitching buddies?

A : Yes I do! Once I really got into stitching I started converting my friends in to stitchers! It was kinda a Borg mentality...

"You will be assimilated..."

I also made real, larger than life, stitching friends thru my online groups! I've been lucky to have many opportunities to meet the friends I've made online. Its been amazing how online friends have become fast and true real life friends. I find we get along just as well or better in person!

I've also met and made stitching friends through joining the local guild. Attending stitching shows, retreats, get togethers and so on.

Oh yes I realized in last night's blog I didn't mention the title of the chart I got. Its a repoduction of a painting called The Accolade. This conversion is done by Gitta's a shop in Toronto.

Good news, there's no imminent deadline for those new models. I can get my personal deadline stitching done first! Yay!

I'm about half way done stitching my first treat bag tonight!

Gosh I almost forgot my January re-cap and February goals!

Yay! Great news about the models! :) I'm glad that you'll get some stitching time for your own projects. Enjoy!

P.S. I forgot to tell you that the Prairie Schooler freebie arrived the other day. Thanks so much and I hope that I can return the favor someday!
