Come one, come all
to a stitcher's free for all.
Come early, stay late
I will meet you by the lake
Bring your stitching, needle and thread.
Out of town, I'll provide the bed.
Saturday, we'll have pot luck
And please, we don't want duck.
Sunday, I'll do brunch
Believe me, you won't need lunch.
So, write it down, don't delay
Mark your calendar for the day.
September 5, 6 and 7
What can I say - Stitcher's Heaven.
Doesn't that just sound so inviting???? I can assure you, I'll be there... will you?
Fingers crossed, I'll have Todd's stocking all finished (well stitched that is) and ready to show off at Kathy's stitching weekend. All the cross stitching is done, I'm currently adding blending filament to all the blues. The it'll be the finishing touches, backstitching (and lots of it) and a few charms. After I show it off, I'll have to find just the right fishing fabric to back it with, then talk my Mum into doing the finishing for me!
From this past weekend, I never shared with you my sash purchases from Knowledge and Needles.
Cross Eyed Cricket - Sleepy Hollow
Ink Circles - Celtic Ice Kit
Gorgeous Victorian Red Lugana

Love the invite and the stash! I got Sleepy Hollow last year for my birthday. I can't wait to start it--one of these days!
Kathy is so clever...I love the rhyming! Love the stash!
Congratulations on your progress on Todd's stocking. I'm so glad I got to see it In Real Life. I also love Sleepy Hollow, but I have been resisting it. I have so many BAPs to work on already. Maybe I will just enjoy seeing you stitch it.
Excellent invite and I love the stash, that red fabric is so beautiful! The stocking looks great, can't wait to see it all finished.
Nearly there on the stocking!
Great stash, the Ink circles one is very pretty, don't think I've seen that one before
Whaw you stitch fast! Congratulations. Indeed, the invite is very well thought of. Take care, Ann.
Love your stash. I can't wait to see what fabric you are using for Sleepy Hallow.
The stocking is really neat. Hope I can do 1 for my DD one day.
You're cruising along with the stocking! It looks gorgeous. Nice stash too - I have the Sleepy Hollow chart too, sadly still unused...
Well what a cleaver invitation...and I'd be there if I could get up there :)

The invite from Kathy is cute. She's talented! Sounds like it will be a peaceful stitchin' good time.
I like the Sleepy Hollow kit. It looks like it will be a fun stitch. I really, really like the Celtic Ice Kit. I love doing the celtic knots.
