It was a fantastic and HOT day! I think we all ate and talked more than we actually stitched. As per my usual comment... I'll let the pictures do the talking!
Lots of amazing needlework on display!

Mollie is begging Julie for treats
Stitchers were everywhere, in the garage...
... in the kitchen...
... in the sun room...
... even outside enjoying the beautiful day!
This is Harry the first male stitcher we've ever had in attendance
Plenty of good eats!
Yes, I bought some stash too!
Some of the sights around Brighton
An interesting mish-mash of items I found near the ice cream shop
Whew! What a day! We were all pooped at the end!!!
Can you feel the envy from there? What a marvelous day. Congrats on all the fun, all the friends, and all the stash. And a special yahoo for Harry too!
ReplyDeleteLucky you! It looks like so much fun and I enjoyed seeing everyone's stitching. I have lighthouse patterns I planned on putting on one of those afghans many years ago...Stoney Creek...maybe they are the same ones I don't know. Another project that never got off the ground lol.
ReplyDeleteKathy A. emailed me about the sale and I actually ordered that same Michael Powell kit from Ann earlier today. You have great taste!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the house was stuffed to the brim with stitchers! I'm sure it was a great time!
Look at all those beautiful projects! Wow!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun day. Wish I was close to join in. ]
ReplyDeleteTeresa's Heartfelt Stitches
How lovely to see so many stitchers gathered together - sounds like a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteLove the little safe at the roadside!
Looks like you all had a great day. Some gorgeous stitching on display. Great photos, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteohhhh you look like you had a fab time *sniff and I couldn't be there and join in the fun ..lol ... love the pooped pooch pose .lol :) love mouse xxx
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great day Dani. You recently posted to my blog about wanting me to put pics in my blog instead of links. But I can't figure out how to move the pics. Can you give me a step by step on how you did this blog entry? Because if I upload the photos first, I end up not being able to put the words around them. And if I upload them last, I don't get to put them where I want them. They refuse to move except to go left, right, and center. I'd be ever so grateful if you would shoot me an email with detailed instructions. TIA if you can!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like an awesome time!

ReplyDeleteWow what a fantastic of array of stitching and quilting. Sounds like a great time was had by all:)
ReplyDeleteWow, Ann will soon have to rent a party tent to house stitchers if things keep going like this! It looks like every available corner was full of stitchers. I loved seeing the pictures of everyone's stitching and wish I could have seen them in person.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had such an awesome time and I'm hoping to see you the Labour Day weekend.
There's some GORGEOUS stitching there. What a wonderful day you had. So wish I could do something like that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your awesome Open House photos. Looks like a wonderful time was had by all. The stitched pieces are beautiful and just love the lighthouse piece. I remember seeing it on Kathy's blog as it was being stitched. Turned out beautifully.
